Their classical content has been shrinking since the days when it actually was a separate magazine (& probably not coincidentally was at its editorial peak). I'm only in Tower a couple of times a year but in my town at least the classical section keeps shrinking.

It was me, of course- and I've received my deserved lashings. I'll blame the
mistake on flashbacks from some pill I took back in the mid-70's. Yeah,
that's it. If this wasn't bad enough, somebody told me off-list that I'd
tried to kill him off before, too...

Just the classical section of Pulse magazine. In many places the classical
section of Tower Records is shrinking a bit (ain't the case in NYC thankfully) but
it's not in real danger, deepest catalog aside.
As was noted, Classical Pulse shrank a great deal from its debut as a stand-alone
mag (edited by Bob Levine) to its reincorporation into the regular Pulse
magazine. Purists cried at the loss of the separate mag; idealists were happy to
have classical back amidst the mainstream. Levine left, Krukowski replaced him.
Now the classical coverage is to be axed altogether (this on the word of a
higly-placed classical PR person who I trust). But it MAY be revived later as a
quarterly stand-alone magazine.

Rick (or anyone else),
Has FMR actually issued their 10 cd box of the Cecil/Oxley/Parker trio's
stand @ Ronnie Scott's? I've been saving pennies to place an advanced order
for it and just checked Avant/FMR's Web site, only to find no new
information on the box (latest entry seems to be late 1999). Since the
announcement states plainly "only available direct via the Internet" I
assume that it (the box) has yet to be shipped.
Any update would be appreciated (especially if I have to find lots of
pennies quickly...).

I've written them three times in the past two months for this. NO reply. I
will call them sometime SOON, and I'll keep you posted.
