Rush Cocky Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 The last album I bought was S&A. The last NON-Rush album I bought was Tool's 10,000 Days. That ought to give you an indication of how selective I can be with my music purchases. In an era where 95% of the music on the local rock station sucks (raise that number to 99.5% if you throw in pop, rap, and R&B), I hardly even bother anymore.

Here's some advice: Stop listening to radio. You might actually find some decent music. Just a little bit of advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Bought: Rage Against The Machine - Evil Empire Modest Mouse - The Moon And Antarctica From a friend: Captain Beefheart - Ice Cream For Crow From the library: The Shins - Wincing The Night Away Pearl Jam - Binaural Radiohead - How Am I Driving? Jenny Lewis - Acid Tongue Wicked What a coincidence, I just returned that Radiohead album yesterday. By the way, you got the Wicked soundtrack? I saw Wicked in person. Nice! Our library actually has some really great music sometimes. I have yet to listen to Wicked yet, I did kinda just get it on a whim. I don't know how amazing the soundtrack will be by itself, but at Gershwin Hall, it was a huge part of the incredible show that I got to see. By the way, if you're back down there sometime soon, you should check out Rachmaninoff's 3rd Piano Concerto. That's some good stuff. I tried looking through the classical music but it just seemed like a jumbled mess. The rows where crammed together so tight I could hardly pull out a cd!

Hope you enjoy them. Nice haul. You know what the bad thing is? When you buy five cd's each week for three weeks, you find out you've run out of money! I'm going to take a break from buying cd's for a few weeks, and if I do buy anything, it'll be in iTunes. But until then, I gotta enjoy what I've got.

Xanadu93 Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 I did my weekend music buying today. I really wish I could buy less music, like a cd or two a week, instead of five or more like I've done for the past three weeks. From Amazon.com (all for a total of $27.91): Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe - Anderson Bruford Wakeman Howe Faith No More - Angel Dust Yes - Time And A Word Yes - Yes From Best Buy (all for a total of $29.97): Bob Dylan - Highway 61 Revisited Green Day - Nimrod Sex Pistols - Never Mind The Bollocks, Here's The Sex Pistols So, yes, it's overspending, but it's smart overspending!

Hatchetaxe&saw Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Whilst on holidays last week I came across a record fair and a second hand vinyl shop. I spent over 600 euro on various old bits and pieces. My wife tells me she isn't angry, but I know different. Oh yes. Would I do it again? Oh yes.

Gompers Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 I picked up some new Prog from Moth Vellum. I checked out samples on Amazon and well, I had to get it. It was worth it too. Great stuff.

Gompers Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 QUOTE (priest_of_syrinx @ Jun 24 2009, 02:41 AM) Porcupine Tree - Arriving Somewhere... Listened to a new Amazon purchase yesterday from a band called Moth Vellum. Heavy elements of old school Prog with some new ideas. It's like Camel at times but written much better with a better singer. Also reminiscent of old Genesis. It is a tad Space Rock in parts as well. This one will grow on me.
