Paul,

Good one! I bought 4 TJB records on E-bay a couple months ago ( The Lonely Bull, Going Places, Whipped Cream & "YUM", and What now my Love) for $11, including shipping. Now I just need a great turntable - Ha! I picked up a couple of Al Hirt CD's on Amazon a month ago (Honey in the Horn & All the Greatest Hits). I know he's considered commercial, but Al, Herb, Raphael, & Doc are what I cut my teeth on, and Al's sound is to die for. If you don't have any Raphael, pick that up too - especially Mendez in Madrid.
