    No problem on sending the check or MO. Sigh on the Clapton. Please inform how much to send and where and addressed to whom (or is that Who).

    I will take the rest of the vinyl generously donated by the fine AK member, nice stuff and you can make room for some more, I assume you know I already have all the Rondstadt, I have so much now I cant recall but since no dibs on any of it I guess I have it.

    Also, many thanks for the wonderful Carly Simon from last shiptment, the shots of her on a number of the covers made my jello jiggle.

    Okay, but I was really trying to save that stuff for somebody that I like.

    too bad, you hear that sucking sound, tough **** still goes down the crapper, just harder to wipe away.

    I rise each day in anticipation of the white box.

    Thanks Rutgers and Wealth.

    Lu, there's a $15 vinyl minimum. At 50% off, your selections have you less than halfway there. Welcome to Club Polk.

    Thanks for the welcome. Glad I could fail on my first post. I read your blurb about shipping after I had posted. Time to shop.........I think the MC5 is still available. That should boost my bottom line!

    It is a refreshing change from what has sadly become the norm for failure on the first post around here. Total cuckoos (of the unctuous and obnoxious cuckoos).


    Hey toucus-head Tedwick! Wait till you see what you're getting now.

    Thanks Rick, will try and get them out today. I think you took a hit on the Bach and Bob James.

    George, that request yields 3 albums.

    He's watching.

    You got shipped today along with Shack, Tedwick and Skip. I'll PM you guys.

    It's about time to take this 50% off list over to AK. It will still be here. Thanks for the great response.

    Good weekend.

    DC,

    The list got hit pretty good at AK when I brought it over there. Clapton, The Doors, Rocky Horror, Joni Mitchell are all gone.

    I didn't forget the Shure.

    Rats! I'm well shy of $15, then.

    BTW, long ago you posted a trio of EL-34s for sale. Did you ever move those?

    Hi George,

    Eagerly awaiting my vinyls...Can I get first dibs on whenever Eric Clapton – At His Best comes up (not sure if your rules allow that or not). Also, would you have Louis Armstrong's What a wonderful world on LP? I am not sure which album of his had it as an original release...

    Your vinyl was shipped this afternoon V. I'll PM you with a tracking number.

    I'm very happy to have you as a new customer, and I'm sure it's a long wait for your first delivery from me. There are no real hard "rules" as it were. But I do have guys here that over the last 5 years or so have spent thousands INDIVIDUALLY on this little project (Project X). That should tell you something.

    Got mine today...couldn't believe it got here so fast. Mail to my house is usually pretty slow.

    Haven't looked at any of the albums, but I'm sure they are as described since they always have been. Can't play them now because I screwed up the stylus on my NEW turntable:o:mad: The good news is that I'm going to go ahead and slightly upgrade the cartridge (I think).

    On a disappointing note, I wish I could read. I thought I was getting KISS: Destroyer. When I opened my package and saw KISS: Dynasty, I immediately knew I misread the listing:o I'll enjoy it, but I was really looking forward to "Detroit Rock City."

    Thanks again George. Great as always.

    Mine arrived today as well, but then I'm not very far away....

    That was one heavy package! And, you remembered the Simon & Garfunkel.

    A quick inspection, and everything looks as good or better than described.

    Thanks, George!
