Not that custom, Tim - but they will give you a CD of any album that was on the Folkways label. Picking and choosing isn't allowed. Part of the deal when Smithsonian acquired Folkways was that they had to continue the policy of keeping everything that ever was in the catalogue available. Until recently, all they had was cassettes of the old albums, but they recently got CD capability. I understand that Folk-Legacy does the same thing, but only on cassette - and their catalog is also a rich treasury of folk recordings.
