Yes, Jason, prices are high, but let’s not go overboard. CDs? Owning them is OK, but actually collecting them?

Some of these prices are enough to start making you collect CDs!

Yeah,from all those sources as well as estate sales,I’d imagine. You don’t know as many musicians and folks in “the music” as Fred does without being the first person the family of a deceased musician/critic might think of when the time comes. I used to pick up lps from him when he was located on W.72 street,and his class and love of jazz still puts him heads above most other people in the bizness. Now if he can just think about lowering those opening bids a little bit(which,like for everything else collected lately,have gone through the roof). Fred?

I think he finds them from collectors willing to sell them for the bifg money. Or from jazzcritics, DJ’s etc…i’ve the same question about Euclid records !

Maybe Fred at JRC has his own “Hot Tub Time Machine”
