There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Very good to hear.
Jeff Healey died.
So this guy made 29 instruments in 29 days in February. Here is number 29:
How do you tune that?

Treats!
Well, if you can tune a piano and you can't tuna fish, maybe a puppy falls in the middle of the scale?
I'm sorry but I really don't think "dog" counts as "making" an instrument. Unless... the author's not a dog, himself, is he?
Jeff Healey died.
It's sad. I'm not a huge fan of his bluesy music, but he made me a lover of early jazz. He used to host a show on the CBC called "My Kind of Jazz"" where he used to play the likes of Jelly Roll Morton, Bix Beiderbecke and the Early Louis Armstrong. He had an amazing collection of early jazz records he inherited from his dad and grandad. I wonder what will happen to that record collection.
Wal-Mart stirs CD pricing pot with multi-tiered plan
NEW YORK (Billboard) - The major music companies have been resistant to lowering their price on CDs, but now they may be dragged to that point: Wal-Mart, the largest retailer of music with an estimated 22 percent market share, has proposed a five-tiered pricing scheme that would allow the discounter to sell albums at even lower prices and require the labels to bear more of the costs.
According to sources, the Wal-Mart proposal would allow for a promotional program that could comprise the top 15 to 20 hottest titles, each at $10. The rest of the pricing structure, according to several music executives who spoke with Billboard, would have hits and current titles retailing for $12, top catalog at $9, midline catalog at $7 and budget product at $5. The move would also shift the store's pricing from its $9.88 and $13.88 model to rounder sales prices.
Executives at the Bentonville, Arkansas-based discounting giant wouldn't comment on the specifics of their promotion, but Wal-Mart divisional merchandise manager for home entertainment Jeff Maas acknowledged the proposal. "When you look at sales declines with physical product, and you have a category declining like it is, you have to make decisions about what the future looks like," he said. "If you have a business that is declining and you want to turn it around, it really takes looking at it from all angles."
