No good having a decent system with no music to listen to so I am on the hunt for some new tunes. More likely they will be 'old' tunes because there doesn't seem to be much of the current stuff that piques my interest.

I have surfed the Acoustic Sounds catalog and some Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs and other 'audiophile' labels are hopefully winging their way out from the states. John Lennon - Mind Games; John Lennon & the Plastic Ono Band - Live in Toronto; The Pointer Sisters - Self Titled; Ted Hawkins, - The Next Hundred Years; a James Newton Howard compilation; two Steve Winwood - Self Titled & Talking Back to the Night; The Chieftans - Long Black Veil; and a Frank Zappa - We're Only in it for the Money.

Found myself in the city recently and dropped into Dirt Cheap CDs on Collins Street. Twenty one CDs later I got out again! Some absolute bargains, including the Blue Note, Rudy Van Gelder re-issues of 50's/60's/70's jazz. Picked up four Tom Waits, a couple of Kasey Chambers and Joss Stone, 'The Soul Sessions' to name some of the others. All burned into iTunes now and available for listening.
