Hi everybody.

Just wanted to say that I've just received my copy of Stu Hamm's "Live Stu X 2" CD through this store. The thing is, I ordered it exactly 10 days ago and it was shipped via regular air mail. Never received anything that fast through standard shipping before. Besides, the guys at Cd Baby are really cool. Here's part of the e-mail I received after placing my order (Subject: Cd Baby loves Alvaro):

Quote:

Your CD has been gently taken from our CD Baby shelves with
sterilized contamination-free gloves and placed onto a satin pillow.

A team of 50 employees inspected your CD and polished it to make sure
it was in the best possible condition before mailing.

Our packing specialist from Japan lit a candle and a hush fell over
the crowd as he put your CD into the finest gold-lined box that money
can buy.

We all had a wonderful celebration afterwards and the whole party
marched down the street to the post office where the entire town of
Portland waved "Bon Voyage!" to your package, on its way to you, in
our private CD Baby jet on this day, Monday, March 12th.

I hope you had a wonderful time shopping at CD Baby. We sure did.
Your picture is on our wall as "Customer of the Year." We're all
exhausted but can't wait for you to come back to CDBABY.COM!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Sigh...

Amazon is great, but these guys went to the extreme in the "satisfaction guaranteed" department, I think.

I got Stu's CD from there too. They've got a comedian or two working there, for sure!
I like them so much I ordered a bunch of stuff I never heard of before!

that auto email CD baby is pretty funny when i first saw it too.
thanks for the reminder, ill have to get this...Trey gunn has a lot of good stuff on CD Baby too. as well as many less known artists.

CD Baby is excellent. For brilliant little-known artists like Jane Kelly Williams, Pat Wictor, and Pat Hamm, (look them all up, they all are fantastic) they allow easy access to music.

As nice as CDBaby is as a store I'd say it's even BETTER for artists. They really take care of you - digital distribution, credit card scanners for shows, and more resources than you can shake a stick at.

My buddy just ordered a CD from them and he was saying the same things... he got that same email too. Pretty awesome

I just ordered bassist Peter Muller's CD from CD Baby. It has a lot of positive reviews.

Alvaro -

Did you get your CD OK?
Was everything perfect?

If you liked a CD you bought, please write a little review on the
musician's CD Baby page? Just click the link below, and scroll to
the bottom of the page. You'll see where it says, "WRITE A REVIEW".
It only takes a minute and would mean a lot to the artists.

The CD we sent you was:

STUART HAMM: Live Stu X 2
GO TO: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/stuarthamm

Also... if you like that CD, I think you'll like some of our editor's
picks, here:

JAZZ: Jazz Fusion
http://www.cdbaby.com/style/74

ROCK: Instrumental Rock
http://www.cdbaby.com/style/113

Of course if anything was wrong, please let me know! I'd be glad to help.

Thanks!

CD baby rocks! My old band sold our CDs there. They sold to people in countries I never thought it would sell in.
