I was in hlaf price books here on the hill today and they had a compilation albumn (Import form the UK) called (I think) flexidisc. It had a bunch of stuff, some good like the Jam and some not so good. It had a track by - and I'm not making this up - Blondie and Freddie. I think it was a working of Rhapsody. The writing credit for the song was Stein/Harry/Freddie. What's that all about then. It cost about eight bucks. Do you want me to pop back and get it for you.

Hey Tommy! Been wondering why you haven't been posting much. Guess you're getting ready for the move...
Unfortunately I can't figure out what you're talking about with this CD. There's too many possibilities here. Are we talking about Freddie Mercury, singer of Queen? I mean, if it were a version of him with Harry and Stein doing the Queen song "Bohemian Rhapsody", I'd definitely be interested.

But what if you really meant a working of the Blondie hit "Rapture"? Or is Freddie just some guy who has no last name at all whose identity we don't know yet? I wouldn't be interested in any kind of working of "Rapture", really. To me, that song is just fine in its original form.

In any case, thanks for the thought!

Marky, all three cd's are very good, if I could listen to them. They don't play in my boom box. but it is an old French boom box so ya know, that might be it. by French I mean, bought in Paris, with the two prong electric and voltage and all that, but made in asia somewhere. but little buddy, what is up?

I don't understand this thread. Are you having an identity crisis? French boom box? Who is this guest person?

Okay, let me get this straight. You can MAKE CD's but you can't PLAY them? If you can't plug the boom box in, get a converter at the local Radio Shack or buy batteries. If you can't play them on your computer, download Real Player or something.

Well, there are just some boom boxes that won't play burned CD's. There is one at work that has pissed me off plenty of times for this reason.

So either you can get another boom box (my roomate actually has a JVC one that says "CD-R/RW Playback" right on top of it, so there can be no doubt it will play burned CD's) or you can figure out how to play it on your computer. But I'm guessing you don't have computer speakers, so you'd need those.

Please explain to me what you have, I mean what do you actually use to burn a CD with? Do you have a CD burner inside your computer?
