I'm Martin.
Not just me then, I've thought that too; over last six months especially - like 50 percent increase. CDs that were £3.50 are now a fiver.Originally Posted by Pigmy Pony
Which I doJust ordered it off Music Magpie, should be here by Wednesday. I've noticed CD prices have been rising lately, suppose it was inevitable. Still, less than a fiver, I can live with that.

Exactly that. Still a bargain for what you're getting, but there'll come a point where they're just taking the piss. I know they're still a lot cheaper at charity shops and car boots, but if you're after a specific title it could take years.
This one next, "Journey to Love" Stanley Clarke. His third album, preceding "School Days" by a year. Some good stuff on this, and some top guest musicians.

New YouTube discovery for me, sometimes the algorithm does good.
Angine de Poitrine
Think...
Gong, meets Steve Hillage, meets Primus, meets...Robert Fripp, meets...Bootsy Collins, with some French madness thrown in?
Musical mahem, I love it.
Bought their album on Bandcamp.
Ok with not having it on Betamax nowadays

Which came first: tightness of the chest of the two performers resulting in the cacophony of their playing, or the sound of their playing causing chest angina?
Whatever, their mirror image costumes are imaginative - working out how the drummer could see through the mouth of his costume caused me to be distracted from their playing. As you can see I wasn't impressed, so let's be kind and say Angine de Poitrine is not for me.
