I am willing. So I've set up
http://www.cs.caltech.edu/~adam/local/fork-music.html
as a sister to
http://www.cs.caltech.edu/~adam/local/fork-books.html
and of course both are reachable from the FAQ
http://www.cs.caltech.edu/~adam/local/faq-fork.html
Our MusicBlvd merchant number is 19084, and if you look at
http://www.cs.caltech.edu/~adam/local/fork-music.html
you'll see how to make links so that FoRK gets credited...

No kidding. In 1998 alone I have bought 40 CDs so far. Scary.
Of them all, I like the Verve's "Urban Hymns"
http://www.musicblvd.com/cgi-bin/tw/19084_43_443340
and Madonna's "Ray of Light"
http://www.musicblvd.com/cgi-bin/tw/19084_43_469724
the best. Which is also scary.

Same here. And if you buy 3 discs at a time, shipping is free.

Sounds great. If you resend me the source, I'll stick it in the
fork-music page as well.
I also need to add links to all the techno bands Jim and Rohit have
recommended. Maybe set up a swing section, too, with those cool
recommendations from Mike. Guess I'll do those when I get the chance,
but if anyone else wants to do add anything I can certainly do that,
too.

Yes, especially since our Amazon total has now topped $110 in
commissions and counting... pretty soon it will be more than we can
drink in one sitting...
