My favorite lube for all these sorts of fussy little mechs (including
clockwork) is a gun-lube called 'Dri Slide'.  It's a molybdenum-sulfide
(or sulfate, or something) very fine dry power lube, in a very light
volatile carrier fluid.  You apply it, move the bits around a bit to
spread it out, and then leave everything alone for an hour or two until
all the carrier has evaporated.

Made in the States, so you must be able to get it over there.  In the
UK, can get it in most good gunshops, and many less specialised
'hunting and fishing' shops.  (I neither hunt nor fish, and don't own a
gun, but still...  Vietnam vets will recognise this as the magical
stuff everyone arranged pirate supplies of, for lubing their M16s, as
the Army issue rifle lube gummed them up beyond the point of reliable
use.)

Also good for locks (which also gum up easily if lubed improperly),
fiddly bicycle parts (derailleurs, etc -- no 'wet' deposit means it
doesn't attract grit), and all sorts of other stuff.  Expensive, but a
little goes a long way.  Comes (or used to) in two packagings -- one
with a long applicator needle tip, the other without.  Buy your first
can WITH the applicator, makes it go a LOT further.  In a year or two,
when you need another can, buy the cheaper -- no applicator -- package,
and remember to hang onto the old applicator.

I recently received a post card from CDI in Oregon that the new
compendium was in the mail to me.  I also noticed copies last
night in my local Tower Records.  

So, they are still in business, still honouring my lone subscription in
1989 and probably still full of errors in their catalogue.  It is still
a pretty good source book though IMO.

I know of at least two offhand:

This is Brian Eno and John Cale, from their album "Wrong Way Up".  The
song is the first one on the album, "Lay My Love".  I was happy and
surprised to hear it.  I think that album is one of Eno's best.

If you asklled it. It was obvious from them answering it
with INTERNATIONAL PREVIEW SOCIETY that it wasn't intended as a general
BMG toll free number. It was for their classical service. I don't know why
they had a toll free number only for the classical club, but my hunch
is that it has fewer members and that those members spend more money
on orders. 

So my guess is the unplublished number which was publicized heavily
here saw a high volume of usage way beyond what they were willing 
to pay. If they'd wanted us to use it the number would have been
on what they mail the members. So they probably noticed the 800
service was costing them a lot and getting a higher volume of calls
than the members of the classical society could ever place. And
a high volume of the calls probably were folks just asking to have
the monthly selection not sent, or bitching about misshipped items -
things that they make no $$ off of. So they pulled the plug. I'll
wager that BMG is still scratching it's head trying to figure out 
how hundreds or thousands of people got the unlisted 800 number. 

I wouldn't be surprised if they start a new number for the INTERNATIONAL
PREVIEW SOCIETY, and publicize it less than the previous 800 number, 
or route it so that regular BMG members can't use it.

Even simpler to make is the 3-dowel style rack.  I first built one 
that held about 700 discs after overflowing my 3" high commercially
made rack, which cost about $80 and held around 250 discs.  It was
nicely made, but at the rate I was buying CDs I obviously couldn't
keep buying them.  The first one I built used only two dowels per
shelf, which I think was too unstable.  I've since built a second
one, a little bigger and with three dowels per shelf.  I used:

3 - 1" by 8" by 6 foot redwood boards (for endpieces and middle support)
24 - 5/8" dowels, 48" long (48" because this is the length they came in)
5 or 6 pieces of 2" wide redwood lath, cut to just over 48" long.

I simply drilled 11/16" holes all the way through the middle board
and halfway through each of the end boards, stuck the dowels in and
glued them in place, then nailed (I should have used screws instead)
pieces of lath across the top & bottom of the front, and at several spots
across the back, for stability.  This leaves me with 16 shelves 
each about 22" wide.  The 5/8" dowels are quite sturdy and don't sag
at all under the weight.  Deciding where to position the lower dowel
of each set determines at what angle the CDs sit; I just played around
with this for a while to find a suitable position.

Total cost for the hardware was less than $50, plus a $20 drill stand
to ensure my holes were perpendicular.

A couple of months ago, some people showed up in a parking lot of a CD
store in town with a lot of CDs for sale.  They were not affiliated with
the store, but did use the credit card operation if you paid that way.
Some were in the condition you noted--some had the insert but no back
liner; some the reverse with a back liner but no insert, and some had no
artwork at all.  I refused to buy any of these.  They did have some with
all the original artwork, although some of those had been defaced as is
normally done with cutouts.  I'd surmise that all of these CDs were
either cutouts or used.

I did find eight CDs that I wanted that had unadulterated artwork for
some very good prices ($3-5 per CD) by artists like Gary Lamb, Loreena
McKennitt, Kim Pensyl, Pete Bardens, and Kelly Willis.  I did have some
trepidation as to what I'd do if one didn't play, but fortunately they
all play fine.

You do not need help from America with this problem. MAP will supply any UK
distributed CD for L9.49 inc VAT and P&P. You have to register first, and they
are not very fast - but they are cheap. Call them on 0705 230495 to register.
I ordered 3 CDs - a new pop release (Tasmin Archer's Great Expectations - 
brilliant btw) and 2 classical recordings for which I gave full catalogue
numbers. I got the first one after a couple of weeks and am still waiting for
the other two after 3 weeks. But they are cheap!

My local "record" store has a "USED CD" rack in the back, and I have

not only have the complete artwork, but almost all of them have a
small round sticker on the outside of the jewelbox which says:

I doubt if the song was a combined effort by Majrooh and Sardar Jaffrey.
They might have written different songs for the film causing their names 
to together in the credits. This kind of thing is not unusual.
Please confirm if the song was indeed a joint effort.
