At least to me. smile.gif

Outstanding. Rare.

Good. Nostalgia.

Good quality sound. No DRM.

Got  some  certificate warnings. Don't know why. They're reputable.

Also replaced one of my favorites I'd loaned out.

I heard a beautiful Christmas song last night, can't remember the name of the woman singing it, the title must be "Mary Did You Know?" (...that your baby boy.... etc.) Wish I could get a copy of it.

And...the iTunes store has a staggering 115 different versions of it. So, you can now spend the next hour or so deciding which version you'd like... wink.gif

I mostly use Explorer at work. At home it's Mozilla. But, I'm not looking for a menu command. There used to be a button on the page.

It must be the time of year. I just ordered "Tea for the Tillerman" and "Teaser and the Firecat" from Amazon.  I'd sworn off Cat Stevens after he got involved in that fatwa, but I heard him interviewed on NPR on Monday, and he played a couple of his early songs, and I just couldn't be strong anymore.

Quick story about "It's a Beautiful Day", Kelly.  While I was working for Silver Platters (small privately owned CD chain in the Seattle-Tacoma area), that disc was THE MOST EXPENSIVE DISC IN THE STORE!  Somehow, the lawyer for the band wound up with the copyright (lowlife!) and that CD varied in price from $80-100 for the original disc!  People would come in to order it, and we'd say, "Are you SURE you want this?" and they'd go, "Oh yeah, it was the best album. . ." and then we'd tell them the price.  Almost 100% changed their minds about how much they wanted it. . . I understand that the band actually recovered their copyright, through the courts, of course, which is just right, but I don't know if they recovered any money from the slimeball.

That will work. Thanks!

It didn't want to work at first, but for some reason after I kept trying, the choices changed.

Now I'll have to "explore" the options on Mozilla at home...

Hey Beacher. You might remember Clyde Clifford and Beaker Street.

That's where I used to hear it back when. smile.gif
