Hi Barbara - Best that you buy it from Auvergne Diffusion then, which is the website in France that handles current AMTA recordings. The cost is 15 Euros plus shipping. The shipping isn't too bad as I recall. Here is the link: _http://www.auvergnediffusion.fr/index.php?page=fiche_produit&id_produit=49_ (ht tp://www.auvergnediffusion.fr/index.php?page=fiche_produit&id_produit=49) One of the clumsy things about Auvergne Diffusion, whose purpose is to make AMTA and other French trad label recordings available to a wider audience, is that you can't use their website shopping cart to order from the US or Canada...or even the UK, if I remember right. So in order to place your order, you'll need to email them (the fellow's name is Marien, and the email address is [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) ). You'll also have to provide a Visa card number (Carte Bleu is how it's known there) and the associated date and code. The way I've handled that is to send the card number in a couple of different emails and the security code in a third email. It would have been nice if they had gotten the website to work for orders outside continental Europe, but that's the way it goes. And no, you can't use PayPal. Don't get me started on the subject of inadequate availability and inadequate marketing of French trad recordings...But this will work, and you'll get your recording as a proper CD, presumably with a fat little booklet of lyrics. Either that or ask a French friend to buy it for you, mail it to you, and get repaid via PayPal. Mitch Gordon p.s. I bought the new La Chavannee Christmas album via iTunes last month, and had I the time to wait for it (I wanted to listen to it over the holidays), I'd have spent the extra money and gotten it from Auvergne Diffusion. Wonderful music but no lyric booklet.. . In a message dated 1/9/2011 2:20:24 P.M. Pacific Standard Time, [email protected] writes:
Hi Barbara, Some albums on iTunes do include liner notes, but most do not. This one does not have them with it. No idea where to get the notes, but if you need them, the iTunes version probably won't do it for you. -Arle On Jan 9, 2011, at 11:27 , Barbara Currier wrote: Hi, folks, I am on the verge of buying an itunes album, but I need written lyrics.
