7/4 Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 What I can't get imediately from Downtown Music Gallery, I get from CD Universe then maybe Amazon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wesbed Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 I voted 'Other.' I like CD Universe for it's pricing, service, and in-stock items. I like Cheap-CDs for it's pricing. I've never had a problem with Cheap-CDs. I've read other posts of people complaining about a lack of customer service from Cheap-CDs. Also, Cheap-CDs doesn't always have items in stock.

BeBop Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 Support your local bricks and mortar. You'll be glad you did when you decide, at 9:00PM on Saturday night, you just GOTTA pick up a copy of Blue Train. On the other hand, we don't all have local record shops that stock Blue Train...

jazzbo Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 I said other because . . . mostly it's other, cduniverse, worldsrecords, and Tower locally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

montg Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 (edited) alldirect.com for anything other than just-released items. I like two brick/mortar shops in St. Louis (vintage vinyl and euclid records). Edited April 28, 2004 by montg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheldonm Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 I voted other; I have been buying a lot more on-line (CD Universe, Dusty Groove, Mosaic and some times Amazon) in the past couple years. I also shop at places like the Jazz Record Mart and Dusty Groove (those bastards!) when in Chicago, which is frequently. There are not many places to buy jazz recordings in Indy so I shop at Borders if I buy something locally (although their prices are quite high). I have also shopped at both Euclid Records/Vintage Vinyl in St. Louis as my sister lives there and I visit several times a year. While were on the subject, any good record/cd stores in Detroit???? I'm going there this weekend to see Donald Byrd B) and have some time to shop! Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alfred Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 CD Universe for the NOT copy protected Blue Notes AMAZON for low price CD's & DVD's 2001 for special priced box sets and other low price CD's (brick & ortar, not the site!)

EKE BBB Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 Where´s CDUniverse Worldsrecords Controtempojazz TrueBlue / Mosaic CheapCD JazzLoft CDBaby Zweit.... and many more???

Claude Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 (edited) Like Alfred: CD Universe in the US Amazon.de and Zweitausendeins.de in Germany But I buy not only in the US to get non-copyprotected versions but also because of the lower prices an the current $ rate. Full price CDs generally cost 17-22 Euro in Europe, and only $14-18 in the US (12-15 Euro). Edited April 29, 2004 by Claude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster_Ties Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 Strange group to choose from. Is this some misguided marketing research project? Similar thoughts crossed my mind. This same poll (with similar, but not identical choices) was started on AAJ, by the same user, within an hour of when this thread was created here.

makpjazz57 Posted May 4, 2004 Report Share Posted May 4, 2004 I buy from the usuals - CDuniverse and amazon. I also check cdbaby.com every few days. I've been surprised by what I've found there - Clare Fischer, Joe Wilder, for example. Also, when I'm looking for hard to find or out of print stuff (particularly LPs), I'll go to musicstack.com.

jamn Posted May 4, 2004 Report Share Posted May 4, 2004 (edited) Here are my two favorites. Great selection and prices. They are really the same company. Doubletime Jazz The Music Resource Doubletime has a list of what they consider to be the 100 most historically significant Jazz recordings. I am interested to know how board members feel about this list. Edited May 4, 2004 by jamn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruceH Posted May 4, 2004 Report Share Posted May 4, 2004 "Other" CD Universe is my Jazz CD site of choice. Why weren't they listed? But I'm also still enamored of brick-and-morter; ah, the rough, bitter pungency of brick and the crumbly crunchiness of morter. Yum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Posted May 4, 2004 Report Share Posted May 4, 2004 I'm not familiar with most of these sites. Anyway, I prefer cd universe, hands down over amazon. Where's jazz loft? That's a good site, esp. for SteepleChase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
