[net.music] GOOD PRICES ON CD'S IN THE CHICAGO AREA?

brandx@ihlpl.UUCP (h. weisberg) (05/23/85)

Does anyone know where to find good prices on CD's (and good
selections, esp. jazz) in the Chicago, Naperville, Schaumburg
areas?  Blue Sky Records in Naperville has OK prices, but not
much selection.  Rose Records, Sound Warehouse, Record City,
Oranges all have pretty good selections, but their prices
seem to be a little hign (14.50 and up).  Rolling Stone probably
has good prices and good selections, but I haven't been there yet.

It's interesting to note that, when I was in Rome last March (before
I started buying CD's), I saw CD's at a record store there for $8.99.
It's incredible how the American record companies and distributorships
have got us over the coals (as FZ says "record company pricks").
I can't believe it costs $5 to import CD's.

Any help in my endeavor to find good prices (~$12.99) even if it
means group purchases would be appreciated.
