There's Jessie the yodeling cowgirl. Bullseye, he's Woody's horse. Pete the old prospector. And, Woody, the man himself. Of course, it's time for Woody's RoundUp. He's the very best! He's the rootinest, tootinest cowboy in the wild, wild west!

I see that they are announcing the closure of yet another location, Langford, which only opened a year ago. This once proud franchise is now down to 4 stores from a peak of 33.
The bell is tolling louder every day........

Picked up a used, 2-disc Hybrid SACD of Lara St John's performance of Bach's Six Sonatas & Partitas for Violin Solo on Ancalagon label:

Amazon.com: Bach: The Six Sonatas & Partitas for Violin Solo [Hybrid SACD]: Lara St. John, Bach: Music

Finally getting around to giving this masterpiece series of Bach's another try...

Found a copy of Billy Joel's The Stranger (SACD MCH but not hybrid).
