Burning your own CD, for personal use, is no problem at all. No different than making a cassette of a favorite album to play in your car. We've all been doing that for decades. To answer your other question, yes, we could burn a CD-R for you, but the cost would have to be pretty high. I haven't even figured it out yet. I gave a pre-release CD-R of an upcoming release to a friend, and it seems to have worked out fine. Trouble is, we'd hardly have time to set up the process to make it efficient until after the seasonal feeding frenzy has passed. I worry about the labeling, the booklet, etc. We make our custom cassettes of items we no longer have as LPs, but have not yet been able to re-issue as CDs. The Cheese Stands Alone was our last monaural LP. Michael insisted on it being monaural. Said he didn't want his voice from one speaker and his guitar from the other. I tried to explain that that wasn't the way it worked, but he was adamant. Therefore, if we were to turn it into a CD, we'd have to get Bob Katz to apply his digital magic to the master, and Katz is now getting $800 to $1000 for such an effort. We really can't afford that! Michael is talking now about making a new recording somewhere, so keep your eyes open for an announcement about it, possibly in SING OUT!.
