Columbia House Lives Again
Like Taters, this was around when I was young.  Was terribly abused.  Kids I knew would sign up as James Bond (honestly), as an example, and get the initial 10 LPs, then never fulfill the obligation.  Seems was a flawed model then, maybe a flawed ...

Did anyone see the Adele concert from N.Y.C tonight
And to you Schubert! 
Did anyone see the Adele concert from N.Y.C tonight
Please, let us not be so uptight.  How about she's the best female pop singer today?  Or the best female singer of her own songs, vs those that are decades, centuries old?  Also, if you don't like it, ignore it.

If you could have only one Christmas album/CD, which one?
Mine is John Prine's Christmas record. 
Are stars that have contracts with the Vegas hotels relevant anymore
Taters, I have loved his songwriting for a long time; saw him once, with his son, in London long long ago.  Then saw him about a year ago nearby, and he was outstanding.  He is as good as Willie in my view, just not as well known or appreciated.   
Are stars that have contracts with the Vegas hotels relevant anymore
Of course they are.  "Charts today" are irrelevant, from my perspective.  On today, off tomorrow, never to be seen or heard from again.  These people are relevant to their fans.  But perhaps you have a different definition of relevant?  Maybe posi... 
I am sick of Adele
Magnificent! Finally a star who is real!
