Yup.  The CD you saw was _If You Could See Me Fly_ (or _If Yould See Me Fly_
as the typo on the side reads...;-).

GACK!  What is it with Californians that they get ripped off so much?  This
is the second highest price I've heard of for one of the two CD's put out
by Chapter One.  The highest was something like $70 or $80, reported by 
another love-hound somewhere in CA.

I paid $30 for my copy of the CD, and I definitely think it's worthwhile--if
you have no (or few) scruples about buying music that KaTe did not want
released, and from which she will receive no royalties.  I don't know if I
would have paid $50 for the album, though.  It's definitely worth trying
to find at a lower price.
