I do not guarantee that they will have what you seek, nor do I guarantee that their encryption is unbreakable -- credit card buyers beware! I just thought it was neat.

• Here is a new outlet for German stuff which is relatively new. I've ordered from them many times with no problem and shipments are prompt. They are located in Lübeck, Germany and they do accept Visa & Mastercard. Best part is their prices, in fact I save nearly 60% - [shipping included], than if I purchased them here in the USA. Please check them out....here is their email address. Loading is a little slow getting there, but once there, everything is just fine. Also their customer service is better than if I went there and did it myself :-))

• hello!
  following some music links thru alta vista I arrived at your site. Seeing you are mentioning several musicsources/stores on line I'm writing you to tell you about
  http://www.musicmailexpress.com
  rockhouse music mailorder holland
  rockhouse  has been active with worldwide musicmailorder since 1973 and since 1996 we run the store on line with a musicsearchdatabase featuring over a 700.000 titles this moment. Working hard to get our site more known and it would be so great if you could give me a linking helping hand.
  thanks so much for your time and best wishes! frances
• CDEurope. "I was hesitant about ordering something from a business that didn't provide a mailing address, but they had the four Zupfgeigenhansl albums on CD that I had bought sixteen years ago as LP's. I plan to order Allan wierra Stan next--Wolfgang Ambros singing Bob Dylan in Wiener Dialekt. Not one you normally see in the Gessler catalogue." Sorry, I cannot remember who wrote this.
• German Music Express They also have Zupfgeigenhansl, as well as Max Raabe und Palast Orchester, and die fantastischen vier.
• CD Connection online does not have Zupfgeigenhansl, appears to be oriented more towards classical music.
• www.plantagenetmusic.co.uk We specialise in military music - a certain amount is German based. (John Salisbury-Baker)

If you can't find something, try my Other Music Sites, or google.com: enter a phrase from the song you want, something without umlauts or ß. Put quotes around it too to search for the exact phrase.
Sorry about the Popup windows that come -- they're from my free server and I can't stop them. Please use a popup-blocker -- Opera and Netscape (6? 7?) have them, and the Google toolbar for Internet Explorer has it too.

Maybe some of you reading this are native English speakers like me who live in some German-speaking country. If you live in Munich, you might be interested in a web forum I participate in with a guide to all kinds of topics that Expats in Germany find fascinating -- like where to get British and American foods in Germany / Munich, what's fun to do if you don't speak German or where you don't have to speak German to enjoy it. Where to see English language movies or get English language books, that kind of thing. It's called Toytown Munich - Munich's native English speaking crowd! If you're moving to Munich it's full of how to find an apartment and where are people meeting up. Many people in a foreign country get tired of having people practice their English on them -- at Toytown, it won't happen. All kinds of events and Stammtisches are listed here, classified ads for people moving to and from Munich, jobs wanted and offered, where to get good Mexican food in Munich, where to get a hot curry in Munich (Sitar!), etc. BTW, the site uses Invision Power Board and Movable Type. Androv Dessous is a German online lingerie shop run by a friend of mine. Specializing in bras for larger ladies..
