In regards to Andre Perrault---
     They run a very high-class organization.  I have ordered recordings from
them on several occasions and in all cases save one recieved my package within
a month after the mailing.  On one occasion, I was informed about eight weeks
after the deadline that the recordings had been damaged on their way to the
U.S., and that they were being reordered.  I recieved them soon after.
     Perrault is very good about change of address and phone in orders.
(You really can reach them at any time.)  Their offerings are constantly
changing, so a record label you see this month may not return for a year.
Many of the recordings they offer are not normally available in the U.S. or
even in England (at least not in any of the Penguin guides), and their featured
label of the month often offers obscure gems at low price. (Examples, Straus
conducting his Alpine Symphonie or Bartok playing Mikrokosmos)
     As a whole, I must recommend them as being the best mail order record
service I know of.
