    What the heck, count me in for the Crystal Method disc. I'm a huge fan of their music.

    Tad bit of info as requested:
    I'm ashamed of the two "Winger" CDs that I have stashed in my tower. Please give me a good reason to get rid of them!

    Edit: I changed my mind, I'm most embarrased of my Bobby Brown "Don't be cruel" disc.

    Do you have The Essential Journey? I have disc 2 but not disc 1 if you could make me disc 1, I'll pay for shipping.


    No, this is the one I have. It's just a single CD.

    Ok.

    Well shack is manning up to everything...which I'm sure is fine because I buy a lot of stuff that may be considered off mainstream that my brother makes fun of me but I don't back off from it. I personally like Michelle branch a lot but hey whatever. It's not something that embarasses me just I can see why people would think that this is just teenage girly music.

    So if you have anything like that then it's ok shack, just for fun!

    list that needs examples so far is

    Esavinon, george daniel, wingnut, masan21 hydrobud, reel trouble, ninerbj, thehaens@cox.re(want all three, than 2 more examples please),and schwarcw.

    just make sure you put in some type of cd/dvd/media that you're not particulaly proud of. I would stand up to all of my cd's but I know which ones people would attack first...Michelle branch for example for me.

    Chris,
    Had set aside my Elton SACD sampler win after it arrived because I did not see that it said it was playable on an standard CDP...

    Came across it early this AM and said WTH, popped it in and hit play. Lo and behold it did (then of course I saw where it said it "CD Audio" on the sleeve). Delayed my head from hitting the pillow an extra 38+ minutes. Been a long time since I spent some quality time with Sir Elton.

    Song selection is very nice, including classics like Honky Cat and Madman...

    Have to say though that the SQ is a bit uneven. It varies all the way from Excellent to simply Damn Good. ;)

    Thanks again...

    Sorry if I misread the cdbook or something, must have been a hybrid.
