    I was driving home yesterday listening to Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers and was reminded of the time Tower Records went out of business. I got about $2k MSRP of value, almost the entire Blue Note catalogue plus a few others, for about $100. The rock and pop stuff had been picked over already, but the jazz section was THICC. I needed a giant box just to haul it all out to my car. Over 100 CDs total.

    Now I don’t even have a CD player in my house.

    What happened to the CDs @ThomasFremont ?

    I think most of them were stolen. The rest are in a basement somewhere? Probably my mom’s.

    I’ve lost or had stolen probably 500 CD’s. Don’t have a single one anymore. I have no clue where any of them are.
    I’ve moved the boxes several times. They’re buried in a basement shelf somewhere now.

    Black Jazz is great. There are some types that are awful. The smooth jazz from the 80s makes me violent.

    Did you go to Fred Myers?

    Don’t be a jazz rayciss.

    Dave Brubeck, Stan Getz, Bill Evans and Chick Corea are all legends.
    The commercial smooth jazz of the 80s? Christ
    Only an ignorant NFL fan would consider that jazz.
    Jazz is literally in the name.

    Several legit jazz musicians put out smooth jazz albums to profit off of basic white people in the 80s.
