Hi Jer, This compilation is fine for a newcomer who wants an inexpensive collection of Conniff tunes and isn't too picky about sound quality. It can be bought...
Yesterday I received a copy of the new bootleg and I must say that they did an outstanding job. I'd recommend this to any fan who was unable to buy the...

OK, Kevin. I'm at my job right now, and I don't remember all the tracks (more or less a hundred). When I get home tonight I will send the list. Best, Jorge ...
A big WELCOME BACK Dr. Glenn, I am sure I can speak for everybody here, when I say that WE MISSED YOU!!! Hope you are recovering well and soon will be back...
I was impressed today with a CD from a second hand store by the Gordon Langford Orchestra, Girls, Girls, Girls!(1970.) It's on Amazon etc. still. Great stereo...

Post the entire collection on EBAY in one lot, put no reserve on it, but stipulate at least $50 for shipping. That way, you're covered, regardless of the...
