    I got a clean double if anyone needs a copy.

    All in all Tito's catalogue is really solid. All depends on what era you like best, but to me all his albums have at the very least two or three good tracks on them. You can pretty much find all the LPs with some patience, but the Tico 10"s are rare.

    Don't give away my copy, G Vega!

    Sunday? Football/beer/record exchange?

    I'm off the road, and am ready for some Football.

    Paging DB Cooper, et al as well

    YES. Although this weekend I'm going back to Boston, so this Sunday is out for me.

    TP has such a deep discography but yes all of his LPs have at least 1 or 2 solid tracks-even the 80's Concord records have great tunes. A favorite of mine is "Pa' Lante" f/1970.

    Top Percussion is all percussion and thus a different sound from his others.

    Currently got El Rey/The King playing and it's sounding good - mix of Shingaling, Latin Soul and Guaguanco, no duffers.

    Well, I was going to visit my Mom who's dying of lung cancer, but I guess I can make it.
