CD prices too Low?

July 5, 2007 at 4:12 PM

I want to purchase the CD by Alison Krauss and the Cox Family. Everywhere, like Amazon, it is $13 to $14, but this one place has it for $7.77.

I want to use it for practice when I'm away from my computer, which has it free, sort of, from Rhapsody.

Question: Musichristian.com will not display the cover of the album - has it been ripped off (Asia).

They show the cover. It's just that first it comes up with cassette format so naturally they don't show a cover.

Thanks. I went in and got both to show and the CD is $12.77 and the cassette is $7.77, which makes more sense.

Another site has it for 13 something with free shipping which is the best buy.

I use these CD's or Rhapsody and try to play with them until I can. They are going so fast there is a sequence to learning: first find the string they are playing on and the beginning note.

Then cut it off and find one section of it and then expand. It usually takes me fifteen minutes to get the first sequence down and another bit to see if they are actually playing in third or so position and slide it down to where I am told to stay for now until I get the basics down and don't get pulled off from them, like I have in the past.

Slowing way down lets me keep it all together - no book, no instructor, just flat winging it and it is fun.
