There has been a long and often close relationship between
the Anglican and Catholic Churches. In certain situations
there remains a mutual recognition of the validity of key
doctrines, liturgies, and practices. And the Catholic
Church continues to hold the faith and moral teachings as
taught by the Apostles.

I understand that there is also an Anglican Use liturgy
within the Catholic Church, wherein the Book of Common Prayer
is used for the Mass (with minor updates). So there is no need
to lose the liturgy Anglicans may be familiar with.

"Anglican Use" is simply strange. There's one in San Antonio (www.atonmentonline.com) - and I can't get over the fact that the "priest" is married with children. It's not a Catholic church IMHO...and I cannot accept the "Anglican Use" as a valid liturgy.

Call me bigoted, biased or what have you. It's unacceptable to me.

I'm an Anglophile when it comes to Church Music. When I was in New Jersey, our Parish Choir sang from a hymnal that I think was called the Oxford Book of Hymns. It had some of the most gorgeous music written for liturgy I've every heard.
