260 bucks! Good god Sandy, what's the story on this book? I once paid 10 dollars for a particularly good episode of "The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers" (don't even ask) but you're into the major leagues with that one.

Actually now that you've got me thinking about this....is their a "Holy Grail" of books that you've been searching for? For me, that holy grail was the original sound track from "The Third Man" with Anton Karras and his zither, along with the Library of Congress recording of Huddie Ledbetter singing the pre-hit song version of Kisses Sweeter than wine. Thanks to Peter T and Joe Hickerson, I've now heard 'em both......they were worth it.

I didn't venture an opinion on the "Shipping charges " thing 'cause for me it's a no-brainer. I've had the pleasure of meeting Dick Greenhaus, and experiencing his droll sense of humour, social kindness and fine music. The guy's been a torch bearer for many years, and if that ain't worth a buck or two, I don't know what is.
