   Thanks for that heads-up;   
      
   Today I rang G&S and bought 'Road Tapes venue #2' and 'Dance me this'.   
   Total £40.80 the lot, so not too bad. I note in passing that they were   
   selling DMT for slightly less than RBP, but that is without any exchange   
   rate or trans-Atlantic delivery.   
      
   While I was there I asked about George Duke's "Liberated Fantasies",   
   which I saw good reviews of before it was released but had never seen   
   copies of, when available, at less than ridiculous prices. No luck at   
   G&S, but a pleasant diversion through bebop, so I ended up trying Amazon   
   once again. This time I found the seller's personal vinyl copy for   
   £21.25. Scored!   
      
   All in all, a good start to 2016.   
      
   Next up on the 2016 purchase list: a new Winter compass for my Std   
   Libelle.
