| Epic Popular Songs "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" by Gordon Lightfoot. IMO, most of his songs are like epic poems. Great artist! | |
| Why do so many sellers take offense to offers on their listings? Who hasn't watched "Pawn Stars"? People come in asking the moon for their stuff, and then Rick brings them back to earth. It's not uncommon for someone to ask $25K for a vehicle or some collectable, then settle for $12K after the smoke clears. I'm... | |
| Amoeba Music We Like The Amoeba store, on Telegraph Ave in Berkeley, was always fun to visit. You can find CDs, vinyl and other types of entertainment. Once you complete your shopping, enjoy the sights and sounds on Telegraph. | |

| Any good audio stores in Scottsdale? The poster asked for shops in Scottsdale, but I concur that AZ Hi-Fi is your best bet. Glen and Bill are far more down to earth than the folks at LMC. USA Tube is also a good store, but they always seem to be closed when I’m in town. FYI, I think... | |
| Any good audio stores in Scottsdale? LMC is a high-quality, high end store on Scottsdale Road. "Best of everything" gear. You’ll get good service if you arrive in an Aston-Martin. Be sure to bring your credit cards...all of them! | |

| Share MYSTICAL, HAUNTING songs Natalie Merchant's "Ophelia". It's even more memorable when she does it in concert. | |
