Thanks, Adrian and Huw ! Will order, there.

The trick with the Zollamt seems to be (works with MA records) to buy CD by CD. A pain in the dings for shipping costs, but at least no customs and taxes...



One of the very sensible things that happens here in Australia is that the customs recognise it is a global commercial world now and allow you to import for personal use up to $1000 of gear without incurring duty and taxes. You can therefore order in bulk and have a steady stream of deliveries without any fear of taxes. You can get a lot of CD's and vinyl for 1000 bucks.


Considering CD prices her in Oz its a life saver.

This one even has a track on it titled: "One for the Woofers" so it had to follow



It is quite classy actually with Freddie Hubbard and Ernie Watts featured.

Prompted by her excellent Glastonbury set, where she played some nifty electric guitar blues.
