What's the last al*** you have bought?

Mekon,

That sounds like a good idea - how do you get the data into the pda in the first place?

I have a vision of me employing a student for a couple of weeks to go through and catalogue it all and type it into a PC.

Just had purchased for me the latest Sting CD. Not bad, but not brill...

The Wrens- The Meadowlands
Absolutely Kosher Records compilation thrown in for free

On vinyl

The Books: The Lemon of Pink
Why?: The Early Whitney EP

I hope you are intending to listen to Pneumonia VERY loud. It's such a great tune.

This one's a little older than most on this thread but.....Chicago blues is timeless.

Luther "Snake" Johnson "Lonesome in My Bedroom"

'nuff said.

Mekon,
I'll be interested in any review you care to write about this.

I have last year's "Thought for Food". I'm very undecided about it, and in a weird way:
1/3 = really damn good
1/3 = ehh, o.k., kinda dull
1/3 = huh?

So I don't know whether to buy the latest.

Eric

A nice sale at Sonic Boom:

The Rapture- Echoes ($8.99)
The Shins- Chutes Too Narrow ($10.99)

Ludwig,
How is that shins? I will be picking that up today. Somehow i forgot to yesterday.

I don't know yet- I haven't unwrapped it. Pitchfork isn't exactly the final word, but here's their review.

Pitchfork can, depending on the level of hangover of a particular writer, tear something to shreds. Absolutely hilarious sometimes. Other times they seem to have their "Indie Pants" in a wad.

Oh, by the way, don't know if you enjoy Grandaddy, but their show last friday at the Showbox was fookin incredible.

Grandaddy is easily my favorite band right now. I decided not to go , in an effort "to pinch pennies", but ended up going on a semi-expensive date.

See your PT's.

Yes, I myself missed The Replacements in 1984 at a small pub in Nashville, TN on their Let It Be tour all in the name of a girl....oh, well.

Can't even remember if it was 'worth' it or not.

Latest purchases:

ERA - The Mass
