A year or so ago I took the step of ridding myself of the dreaded jewel boxes in favor of vinyl sleeves for my 1500+ cds, a huge improvement. The ratio is between three and four to one. At the time I had a 1K cabinet which looked like a lifetime solution at the time, since it would ultimately hold between three and four thousand. Alas, I bought a new house which would not accommodate the 1K rack (4'H x 5'W.) Fortunately, the same outfit I got the big rack from, Home Decorators Collection, also has a more compact device that's about 42"H x 24" W x 13"D that will hold about 600 cds still in their jewel cases. My best guess is that it will hold about 2K5. It has storage in the doors and takes up minimal space for the amount of stuff it holds. They're not cheap, about $300.00, but the solution is worth the price.

Heather Nova was once described as using rivers and seas akin to how Springsteen uses the open road. Apparently, she grew up on a houseboat or something like that, and uses lots of sea and water metaphors. I think the most obvious example of this is "Island," which appears on Nova's _Oyster_ album, as well as the second Lilith Fair live album. Great song. Tracy Chapman's "I Used to be a Sailor" also spring to mind, from her underappreciated _Matters of the Heart_ album. Tom Waits also has a song called "Shiver Me Timbers" that's really good.

Anyway. Some of y'all may recall this thread occurring once before, 3 or 4 years ago. My dad's a sailor and my brother and I decided to make a tape for him of sailing songs for his birthday. Naturally, I turned to ecto for guidance. Unfortunately, the files where I saved all that material are locked away on a bad hard drive, and I've yet to dig up a copy of the final track list either.

Also, it can be about sailing, or fishermen, or ancient >legends of the sea, waves, tides, even just plain water... This summer I started making a lot of theme mixes, anything that I could find enough songs with a common theme to make tapes of. Water songs ended up taking up 2 tapes, so I will forward you my list of songs off those tapes, but off the top of my head: Down by the water-- pj harvey sail across the water-- jane siberry the ocean-- dar williams the irish sea-- mila drumke cold missouri waters-- cry cry cry orinoco flow-- enya the river is wide down by the river-- bob dylan? i only know the indigo girls cover waterfall-- victoria williams river-- julia fordham river of dreams-- billy joel road, river & rail-- cocteau twins riverwide-- sheryl crow catie curtis has a song about a river on her self-titled album do these count?? under the boardwalk mimi on the beach when last i was a fisherman at the beginning of time (before there were waves, we'd sit on our boats, we'd float there all day) splish splash more later JoAnn ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com - --part1_0.bce6f4b2.25735fdc_boundary-- ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 28 Nov 1999 23:42:12 -0700 From: "phclark" Subject: Re: High-density CD storage... - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Eric Brown" To: "'phclark'" Sent: Sunday, November 28, 1999 10:53 AM Subject: RE: High-density CD storage... > Where can I contact Home Decorators Collection?

There are a number of places to get vinyl sleeves, do a search for cd storage. There are a bunch of fancy doo dads out there which might otherwise be desirable, but not when you're having to buy 1000. I chose Bags because they had what I decided I needed, though the process took some agonizing. It's not just the cost, though that's obviously a consideration, but the aggravation of guessing wrong would be huge. The Bags item I used is a "gatefold" which holds the cd on one side and the propaganda on the other. Beware, I contacted them to buy more of what I got previously under the same stock number and what they sent was 5/8" shorter and the propaganda wouldn't fit. They made the change without telling anyone,even the sales staff, because some people had complained about them being too long. My problem was the opposite, I wanted to match what I had. They did replace them with the correct item, as apparently they do have "some" left, but you'd be best off requesting a sample of the candidates. Otherwise, I'm pleased. Home Decorators is @ www.homedecorators.com, 800 245-2217. Item #13362 @ $299.00. They'll send a catalogue on request. Hope that helps.
