Tower REcords in Silicon Valley is having the same sale.  I don't understand
why people keep spending $15, $16 or more on mail order CDs.  There always
seems to be a sale on somewhere.  Classical Wax (Palo Alto) recently had
every CD on sale for $11.99.  

I'm tossing out my mail order catalogs.

	Last week, I mentioned that Tower Records in NYC is having
a CD sale until March 13.  Well, now I have some addenda and details.
First, the Uptown store at 66th and B'way is cheaper than the
downtown store (B'way and W.4th) for some labels, such as Telarc
and Chandos.  Second, here are some price comparisons for the
uptown store and the Compact Disc Center:

Label			Tower price		CDC price

Delos		       $11.99		       $14.99
Denon, Nonesuch,
RCA			11.99			12.99
London, Philips,
DGG, Argo		12.99			14.99
Telarc			15.99			14.99
Angel			11.99			13.99
Chandos			15.99			15.99
Teldec, ProArte		12.99			14.99

Conclusion: go to Tower (even though it hurts) for lower prices.
