  Its always fun hunting down music!
  And the thought of Dave Graney has got me pulling Night Of The Wolverine out now and I'm listening as I write.
  Three Dead Passengers In A Stolen Second Hand Ford is one of the great dead teens songs...
  A cool one is good... I've been in the garden buiding in a small raised shrub bed and am dripping sweat and not in any kind of good way!

      ... Its a public holiday here today and I am not sure if they are open.
      Whatever time is listed as my posting time, its 8.00AM at the moment.
      If you don't hear in another 24 hours let me know and I will phone them.
      It has been put aside for you so there shouldn't be a problem.
      They are nice people but may not be the most efficient in the world.
      Queensland is not known for efficiency or high customer service.

            Your CD is still there and the girl who does net sales should be getting to it today.
            Yesterday was a holiday and Tuesday was her day off.
            Just bad timing I guess...
            Anyway, they have promised to phone me if there is any problem.
            Like the postal service here, they may be slow but I have never known them actaully lose anything.

                I assume that means they have contacted you... rather than you just siad you'd like them...
                I think you will love the Triffids if you haven't heard them.
                The first 5 seconds of Born Sandy Devotional should be a clincher... it has one of the best lyrical intros I know... but no clues for now!

                  I told them what I wanted and for them to let me know the cost and then I'd give them my CC#...

                        .... time!
                        Its about $44US.
                        A standard new CD here is between $24-26US.
                        I think the 2nd hand one was $16Au which would be $12US, so maybe you got charged around $5US for shipping which sounds pretty good to me.
                        Anyway I'm glad they got back to you.
                        As I said Queensland tends to be slow but honest.
                        Now I'll keep my fingers crossed you like The Triffids...

                          Here is a web site that sells all their CDs and SACDs for 5.99 plus S&H....6.44 a CD....total!!
                          You need to sign up and give them a CC# and make a want list. Every month they take the top CD on your list and send it to you.
                          You can also buy as many as you want anytime for 5.99. Limited to about 14,000 in their inventory. I have bagged all kinds of SACDs for that price. All the Elton John, and a ton of Living Stereo SACD reissues (incredible sound).
                          If you forget to keep your want list filled they will charge you anyway.....I think you can do this from OZ.
                          A terrific and super way to fill in your collection, especially if you have a SACD player....Bob Dylan SACDs, they have 'em....Clapton SACDs ....
                          This cold link will take you to their SACD pages:
                          http://www.yourmusic.com/search/index.html?search_type=albums&search_text=hybrid&do_search=1&x=9&y=4

                          
                          

                          • This is a link to their homepage   (Open in New Window)

                            I may sign up to fill in some holes in the collection, although it is a restricted stock.
                            I know US discs are cheaper than here but you should try the UK where, as a friend tells me, standard price is around 16 pounds or $30US.

                              YourMusic is excellent for filling in the holes...BTW, the SACDs of Dylan and Elton John have Redbook CD mixes that are ....in most cases...far better than their older CDs. Buy a cheap ass Universal player and you are good to go with the SACD layers which will put you in the mixing studio with the master tapes.
