There's sometimes a danger in prioritizing. Anyone who put off geting the Ronald Stein box set from Percepto never will. It was yanked.

Back in April I started a spreadsheet of all of my wants. I have them "prioritized" in my head, but I don't think I'd be too upset if most of them OOP before I bought them.I guess I'm hitting the law of diminishing returns. I find these days that I'm having a harder and harder time finding "new" scores I really like. Too much stuff I buy and then listen once or twice before I go back to listening to the old standbys that I have loved for years. A few times a year I still get surprised, though, most recently by Poledouris' "Cherry 2000." I know orchestra + 1980s synth music isn't for everybody, but his themes are so infectious for this one. Even the Hungarian State Opera Orchestra puts in a surprisingly good performance for this score, with a nice recording by Eric Tomlinson.

There's still quite a few scores I need to buy. After March 2008 I plan on buying the rest of my "to get" list. IF they're out of print I'll resort to ebay or the Amazon Marketplace. Either way I'll get em'.
I too hate having not enough money for everything I want.

The Ronald Stein box set is once again avilable at Percepto, but only for a limited time. Act now!
