So what did you get? I'll start:

Rolling Stones - Forty Licks
Carol King - Tapestry (the remaster)
Jazz Greatest Hits (3 disc set including Miles Davis, Dave Brubeck & Thelonious Monk)
Tchaikovsky - 1812 Overture (the newer Telarc DSD version)
Ginger Baker - Falling Off The Roof
Sarah McLachlan - Fumbling Towards Ecstacy
Stevie Wonder - The Definitive Collection

So far...

Lots of goodies:<BR>

<I>Billie Holiday</I> from Ken Burn's jazz - This one had a lot of impact, just hearing how her voice mirrors her life as the recordings step through 25 years of her life was incredibly poignant.<BR>
<I>John Coltran</I> from Ken Burn's jazz - Very good so far, though I've only listened to a couple of tracks.<BR>
<I>Charlie Parker</I> from Ken Burn's jazz unopened but filled with promise!<BR>
<I>REM</I> - Murmer and Automatic for the People<BR>
<I>U2</I> - Achtung Baby<BR>
<I>Ramones Anthology</I> - Hey! Ho! Let's Go!<BR>
<I>Fuel</I> Sunburn<BR>
<I>Steel Pulse</I> Reggae Greats<BR>
<I>Neil Young</I> Mirror Ball<BR>

A nice well rounded selection so far although I'm still waiting for a couple more shipments he didn't get here in time...

D'Oh that worked out well - NOT! Apparently you don't embed your HTML on this board...

greg,

had that same problem when i first joined, use brackets [ ] instead.

music:

Bob Dylan - Desolation Row import 45
Norah Jones CD & LP and Velvet Underground & Nico LP (horray for RickG)
Gift certificate to Best Buy (don't know what that'll yield yet)

add-on: greg - by the way you don't need break return, the head-fi genie will do that for you.
