towering toccata has a few funky grooves, and is well recorded as with all CTI stuff, but there isn't a single track that is unmarred by an appalling cheesy middle-8. the CTI album to go for is 'black widow' which has two tracks that you can play from beginning to end without wincing : 'jaws' and 'quiet village', both excellent. there's also a 7" single with both of those tunes.

What about the Monopoly Queen/ Let's Keep It Friendly 7"?
I've been nagging for it at the local record shops for years now.
These poor guys need a break.

I would disagree. I'd say steer clear of Black Widow and Towering Toccatta
unless you're really bored. In fact, Black Widow is a pile of shit!
I'm sorry, sometimes these things have to be said.
That Cecil Leuter library record Pop Electronique is on Ebay at the moment.
Anybody got it? Know it? Has an opinion on it?

The truth is greatly otherwise. And if anyone would
like either or both records for slightly more than a
song, let me know.

m.ace, turn off the TV right now and put on "Goldfinger" from the
Discotheque 2 Lp. It totally kicks (make sure you crank up the volume)!
"Eight Days A Week" is pretty good too, in a sort of smarmy surf kind of

Well, I finally broke down and purchased a CD burner. Not for the computer,
but for my stereo components. I want to burn from CDs and records in my
collection and make compilations for my friends and for myself. I got it
about three weeks ago, and have been afraid to hook it up. Isn't that stupid?
I even bought the blank CDs, making sure they weren't for the computer. The
reason I haven't set it up is the sales people keep telling me I need better
cables than the cables that ship with the player. They say that the CD's will
burn fine, but if I play them back on the CD burner, they won't sound great.
My tuner isn't the newest, so I can't buy the digital cables. But there are
cables that I can buy, I guess along the lines of monster cables. Does that
sound right to you? Are there people out there who can advise me? Should I
just hook it up with the cables that it shipped with and see how it sounds? I
don't know why I'm so darn hesitant to hook it up, but I'd better hurry
before my warranty runs out. LOL

The short answer probably is a diagnosis of technophobia. I have a touch of it as well. I also recently purchased a free-standing CD-R maker. I am now doing both CD copying and vinyl recording. With CD's its easy. You simply follow the directions letter for letter. For recording just individual tracks first select the track you want to record on your left player. Then press low or high speed recording. then press play on the left one...it will do its job automatically. For vinyl its a little trickier. You need to cue up the track on the turntable..With most consumer models that's next to impossible. It would behoove you to get a direct drive table so you could cue it up manually. Then you must select "analog" from your digital/analog option button on the right hand CD recorder. Each time you select an option it takes the maching a moment or two to set itself up. Then its just like recording an album track to cassette. You get the needle on the record, and just before it starts!
the first sound, hit "record" o
n your right hand CD recorder. If you can time a cassette this is even more accurate. The ONLY problem, and not a huge one, is that when you cue up a track on a CD-R recorded from vinyl, it does not "instastart" like a straight CD does. It will start playing wherever you pressed record while you were waiting for the track to begin....Hope that helps...JB
