hey mary, i don't post much, but i had to chip in:
>NP: Meshell Ndegeocello- Bitter NICE!!! i'm currently listening to her 'cookie', which is a mixed bag, but i think bitter is one of my top ten albums of the last ten years. just so good. also, someone posted a theory that columbia house and bmg produce substandard cds. the record clubs do have there own manufacturing licenses and plants, and they try to cut costs there. i was member of bmg classical for a while and had no probs. but columbia house is shite shite shite. i've never belonged since the cd era, but i've been given columbia house cds and they seem to be always skipping etc. i did belong during the cassette era. a couple of years ago i purged my 500-piece cassette collection of tapes that don't play properly, and you know what? 28 of 30 were columbia house. it's unconscionable. welcome. patrick np - meshell - GOD.FEAR.MONEY
