Manifest is currently my church. They had a two for one used CD sale right after a jazz radio station decided to divest itself of tons of Blue Notes a month ago. Needless to say, I stocked up to the tune of 60 hard to find jazz CDs for only $180. Not bad - all killer groove jazz from the '60's. Always great stuff there in power pop usually too. The week before my jazz splurge someone brought in a ton of rare psychedelic CDs. Said her husband never played them, just liked to get high and look at the covers!!! I love that place. I haunt it like a ghost.
