Well, the year's almost gone.  Time to start thinking about those top ten lists and who's been naughty and nice.  Put us on the nice list for listening to so much music and telling you all about it.

As you know the domestic mail is getting back to normal.  A few delays here and there.  However shipping orders overseas seems to be hit and miss.  Some orders are there in days, others take weeks.  As you can guess, planes have everything to do with it.  Rest assured we are shipping the orders as fast as we ever have, but what happens then is out of our hands.  Feel free to check in with us if you think there's a problem and we'll gladly tell you what we know.

We've had a long wait for restock on the Kasey Chambers disc.  They come from way down under so they take some time.  As of this writing we have plenty so don't delay and get this one on your Christmas list.  Kasey fans will also want to check out our book section at the end of the mailer.  Author John Lomax III has written a wonderful new biography of her and her family's rise to stardom.  It's a fun read with photos and lyrics.

Speaking of Christmas, we have an early present for you this month.  For the month of November we are offering the new Shelby Lynne disc "Love, Shelby" for just $11.99.  It picks up where her last album left off.  It's a strong follow up that is really getting a lot of spins around the office.

We've tacked on a few new and old Christmas discs at the end of the mailer.  We never get tired of holiday tunes.  You won't either when you add these to your collection.

Some great new discs to bring us into the fall season.  Some old names that we love to hear from and some new ones that we will be hearing from again.  As you might expect this time of year brings plenty of reissues.  And you know how we love those.  We know you listen to all kinds of music so we try to offer just about anything that interests us even if it falls just a bit out of this genre.  With that in mind we offer some more essential blues albums with rock and folk roots.  It's always fun to study history.

We have a special disc for Stacey Earle fans at the beginning of the mailer.  It's a limited edition set so get your order in now.

That's all for now, stay safe and enjoy turkey day along with the healing power of music.

The following are the CDs in this month's issue.
