There is a special on at the moment of 100 of their cds at 2.50 each. If you buy a few you get 10% off too, although they do charge for postage. I have filled my boots already.
 
Thanks. I often pass by and have a look at their 'please someone buy me...' offers. Some superb stuff here for significantly less than the price of a pint. The Williamson Piano Concertos for a fiver is a steal.

Just watch the P&P. 10 discs will get you the 10% off, but the postage nearly doubles (9 discs seems to be a sweet spot)!

Boots also filled.
 
Any recommendations? I like my classical music on the quirky side. Mandolin Concertos, Ukulele Stuff, Winds and Asian Classical are up my street. Anything that will blow my mind please let me know :D
 
This is what I went for. I'm on a bit of melodie/art song kick. Particularly faure

Good marketing technique- I only chose 3 @£2.50 (was going to be 4 until I played a sample of what Steven Osborne did to Beethoven) plus a full price English Consort Handel set.
 
Chap can never have too many Bach concertos-

The Guerrero is very good too. The appropriately named Battle Mass- in the forty odd years the man depicted on the cover was on the throne, he was not at war for only six months of them.

Certain people who already have far too many CDs, Spotify Premium and *no willpower* may never forgive you for this post.
 
My lack of will power brought me 15 CDs.... Have just listened to Taneyev's Piano Quintet - what a magnificent piece of music, and I would probably never have heard it without this special offer.
