Name The Album You Just Bought

[Popmartijn]

I only went into town to look for a cheap Frank Sinatra CD (with supposedly great sound) and for a new strap (is that the right word?) for my watch.
Instead, I returned from a used record store with:
V/A - The Complete Motown Singles Volume 4: 1964

And when I came home I found on the doormat:
Chuck Berry - Is On Top/St. Louis To Liverpool
The Byrds - Mr. Tambourine Man

 

[IWasBored]

alkaline trio - agony & irony (the version with the bonus disc, of course. so far i don't really like it)
death before dishonor - count me in
the offspring - s/t
the pixies - doolittle
ted leo & the pharmacists - shake the sheets
h2o - nothing to prove
rancid - b sides and c sides
mighty mighty bosstones - medium rare
rocket from the crypt - scream, dracula, scream
the suspects - s/t
the howards - switchblade rock n roll
betrayed - substance
operation ivy - energy


most of it was used. i think in all i spent about 130 bucks.

Same.

 

[IWasBored]

i'm impatiently awaiting the arrival of the new briggs, street dogs, and hudson falcons albums. i'm listening to the new street dogs (and true to all that is predictable about me, i love it) right now, but i can't wait til i've got the actual cd here. i don't think i've been this psyched about an album since...well, okay, a couple weeks ago with the new mark lind disc.

Adding to my year of experimental jazz:
The Jeff Gauthier Goatette--House of Return

Frank Sinatra - Nothing But the Best

Thought the kids might enjoy some Sinatra stylings to offset the rap/Top 10 stuff while riding in the car with mom. "Thanks, Mom, at least it's not NPR (that hurts my stomach)"

Flatt & Scruggs-- Best of (20th Century Masters)

How you know so much music, Martha, it just amazes me!

Just got back from FYE. First cds I've bought in a loooooong time. I could've bought 3 more, but I decided to be good, so I just got these 2 Used:

We Are Scientists -- "With Love And Squalor"
The Killers -- "Sam's Town"

[BrownEyedBoy]

After having previously purchased it on Blu-Ray I dediced I must have this piece of music in audio format so yeah, I recently bought Where the Light is by John Mayer.

 

[FitzChivalry]

More used cds (from Second Spin in Newport Beach)! I could've done way, way more damage, they had SO MUCH good stuff . . . but I reigned it in and only got 4 (Buy 3, Get 1 Free ) :

The Helio Sequence -- "Love And Distance"
M83 -- "Saturdays = Youth"
Los Campesinos -- "Hold On Now, Youngster . . . "
Wilco -- "A Ghost Is Born"

I'm going to regret this, but where is Second Spin?

 

[Saracene]

Beck - Modern Guilt
Tom Waits - Rain Dogs
Eels - Beautiful Freak

 

[FitzChivalry]

I'm going to regret this, but where is Second Spin?

It's at the end of the 55, just past Triangle Square. Do you know where Rock 'n Java and, a tad further down Tower Records, used to be? It's in that same strip of stores. It's right next to Condom Revolution and WingStop (which, btw, if you like wings, the wings there are sooooooo good!)

They had all the Bowie I could've ever wanted, but not the one I really, REALLY wanted.
