- I was killing some time before a movie at the new Sunset 5 theatres
- yesterday when I stopped in the new "Megastore" operated by Virgin (of
- Virgin Atlantic, Virgin records, et. al. fame) in the same complex, at
- Crescent Heights and Sunset.
-
- I found 3 jazz CD's that I never knew existed by artists I've been
- following for a few years. The selection of obscure CD's in this
- store appears to be excellent. A huge jazz section, a good large folk
- section, and a big international section. All the CD's are displayed
- without the wasteful cardboard packaging, which is recycled (? I don't
- know whether to believe them on this)...I have heard that all the
- record companies are going to stop with the cardboard on CD packages
- by next spring.
-
- The other good news was the price: each of the three CD's I bought
- were priced $11.99, where I might have spent $13.99 at Tower, if Tower
- had even stocked them.
