I have 'READY FOR FREDDIE' in a non-RVG edition. Who wants it? Post(reply) and PM(snail mail address) and it is yours.

  Great idea :tup  :tup  :tup

Ben Wallace even likes it :bwallace:

I'm all over this like a cheap suit! :lol: Thanks (in advance)!

I've got a whole stack of stuff...I'll list it Friday (it's all back in Philly, and I'll be there then).

PM on the way, Phillyq!

PJJ

'Ready for Freddie' goes to Pete. It should go out tomorrow.

Someone comes along now and then with a great idea, Dan and Tony with the BFTs and now Parkertown with this. It's a nice way to help out your fellow jazz fan. I've been generally lucky that if I see something I want, I can get it. This is a good way to pay someone back in a jazz way.

Now if someone offers a Mosaic, I'll flip my lid :o

This thread will grow faster then any other. Just watch.

It reminds of a boardmember's (Jsngry I think) recent analogy of the crack rock rolling under the couch. You start throwing around free jazz around this crowd and you better stand clear!

GRASS ROOTS to Conn! PM me with the address!

Awww thanks, but as the subtitle for this thread states, I can't really take credit for the idea. I just thought it would be GREAT to get this going on the wonderful place we call "The Organissimo Jazz Forums!"

Can't take credit for the idea, just for gettin' the ball rollin'...

Have fun, gang! B-) :tup:w

Great to see the development of the thread.

I would suggest that posters who don't receive any requests for the CDs they offer for some time (a week, shall we say it?) offers something elese instead. After all, if you received a CD from somebody, you gotta send a CD to somebody as well. A good karma preservation principle.
