Replacing some rare CD's

[bcstec!tahoma!efsl@uunet.UU.NET (Michael D. Riston)]

     Greetings one and all, as I make an exceedingly rare post.
     Excuse length and x-posts to r.m.b and r.m.gaffa, but I want
     to reach a LOT of music-lovers & collectors.

     While on Xmas vacation last year, my home was burglarized.  The
     main focus of the burglary was my CD collection -- over 150 stolen.
     Many of these were imports and other such difficult-to-replace
     items.  What I need is names, sources, or other help in replacing
     them, as I have very little chance at recovering all of them (a
     minor miracle did occur, and I recovered 15 of them!).  A lot
     of them are replacable with domestic copies, and some are still
     available as imports (no domestic pressing, y'know).  But....
     SOME are tough to get, for various reasons.  And so, I ask
     the net rec.music world, help! I wanna replace these.  If you
     can get a copy of any of the following, have an extra, etc...
     then, e-mail a reply to :

     Don at efsl@tahoma (..!tahoma!efsl).

     I am NOT Michael, as noted in some headers; it's a shared account,
     but I can receive mail at it.

               *******  by someone who doesn't have a clue as to its value,
