my credit card is going to get hammered :D
You can make a killing
on sonic youth albums! Dirty and Goo for £2.99. I should write dfs adverts

This
album is amazing
http://www.play.com/Music/CD/4-/731919/The-Days-Of-Mars/Product.html?dpr=151624
Best title on DFA
^
don't be daft
the chow chow album
http://www.play.com/Music/CD/4-/3385928/Colours-And-Lines/Product.html?dpr=154427
is very good. worth getting.
XO and Figure 8
are both on sale for £2.99
ughhhh
dammit daniel, i just bought 13 CDs :(
brilliant!
what did you order?
like four neil young cds
a j mascis live at cbgb's thing, clouddead (which i've never owned on cd), raekwon, best fwends, andrew wk :D and a talking heads one. i might have missed some out but that's the crux of it. i might go back and get alligator on cd which i don't have.
Looking through all of these
Just makes me think how many piss-poor album covers there are.
I've already got 6 albums and I'm yet to have a look at that 2.99 sale one... argh.
Oh Christ
look at all those Neil Young albums...
12 CDs...
:(
.
Sigur Ros albums are all £5, and The National's Alligator is £5.
Am tempted by Clouddead albums.
:D
i don't properly have alligator! brilliant.
i'm going to get a clouddead one as well, someone tell me which one is better.
yeah
clouddead opinions for me too please.
I bought one about four or five years ago, but I returned it due to not being entirely sure/very poor. Can't remember which one it was though.
Oh, and three Eel's albums are £2.99. and dEUS for £5 and less.
Ten is better
s/t is brilliant, but it's not a proper album, and feels it.
However - I'd go for both.
ah
you are a fool, the s/t is definitely the one to get... trust me i'm a dose one head
you twat
Ten's perfect.
And I did say get both.
"trust me i'm a dose one head" - no, you're a knob head.
Niiiice
Treasure, Murmur and Dirty for me :)
There's some Miles Davis live stuff in the £2.99 section
which is better: Live in Berlin, Live in Europe or Live in Tokyo?
They're all quite similar
Recorded around the same time, same band, similar setlist, just different saxophonists.
If you don't have much Miles, Live in Berlin is probably the definitive one as that's the first recording with Wayne Shorter (who stayed with the band for a while). I quite like Live in Tokyo, as the saxophonist (Sam Rivers) is much freer than normal for Davis' band, so it has a bit of an unusual sound.
I'm not going to click on that.
I'm not going to click on that.
I'm not going to click on that.
I'm not going to click on that.
I'm not going to click on that.
*tells self he doesn't need anymore cds.*
Three Dollar Bill Y'all for £2.99?

16 NU METAL EXTREMES
http://www.play.com/Music/CD/4-/120807/-/Product.html?searchstring=nu+metal&searchsource=0
that's got barely any nu-metal on it!
CHRIST
this is good.
which is best of THESE graham coxon albums:
the sky is too high, kiss of morning or crow sit on blood tree?
The Kiss of Morning
tell me WHY!
Ain't nothing but a heart ache
uh
i have the first and third of those. the first is really patchy and quite scrappy, the last is a fun basement folk record made by a drunk. i like it but i don't play it often.
cool
thank you! still think all i can stretch to is the first cLOUDDEAD album and "pneumonia" though...
whiskeytown?
yes!
belated reply, cos i went out to buy spiced cider.
good work
'jacksonville skyline' is probably the best song adams has ever written. it's a musical crime that it was buried away like it was :(
crow sit
is incredible. golden d is better tho
crikey!
i can't be taking a pay cut and a tax rise when this is happening
in the last minute i've uncovered...
£5 - Adam Green Gemstones, Best of the Divine Comedy, Brick dvd
£2.99 - Eels Electro-Shock Blues

Goo and Dirty for me and Captain Beefheart and His Magic Band. Thanks for the heads up!
dirty> goo
so much
CAN YOU FORGIVE THE BOY WHO, SHOT YOU IN THE HEAD?!
daydream nation>dirty
I want that on vinyl SO much
I like Daydream Nation
but the top 3 SY records are quite clearly:
1) Dirty
2) Nurse
3) EVOL
i disagree
i don't really like dirty very much. i only have about half of their back cat but i think my top three are:
1) daydream
2) confusion is sex
3) EVOL
thnx
Whoo, glad I made the right choice then
I'm so poor that I could only afford one 2.99 album, and I went with Dirty over Goo.
boner city!
i can nearly complete my sonic youth collection, get stroszek on proper dvd AND wayne's world 1&2 all at once!
Party time!
amazing
two elliot smith records, whiskeytown, scott walker and portishead for 14.95! ace!
THANK YOU FOR BURNING MY QUICHE
I just bought:
*Entroducing...
*Heim/Hvarf
*Picaresque
*Axis: Bold as Love
I want to buy more but I shouldn't.
Endtroducing made me happy
but then you went and spoiled it all by getting Sigur Ros and Decembrists.
Seeing lemonbrickcombo unhappy is worth £10
sigur ros can suck my balls.
seriously.
One of them is gay
so be careful what you ask for
PICARESQUE!
brilliant! i've wanted that on CD for ages.
This is one of the greatest records ever made. £3.99
Joni Mitchell Blue
http://www.play.com/Music/CD/4-/150635/Blue/Product.html?dpr=154427
I just bought it.
You better be right
If you have a heart
this record will break it.
Surely that's worth 3.99 of anyone's money.
Oh God
Good shout.
Troublegum by Therapy? for £5
Sparklehorse
Vivadixie.... is £5
Thank god I've already checked out. This could have been very dangerous.
Oh man...
Liquid Swords, only £2.99!
and 36 Chambers for a £5
add Only Built For Cuban Linx for £5 too, and you've got yourself a 'best of wu tang' for under £15
so, who spent the most?
i spent 55 quid :\
£60
ish, I think.
15 quid, 5 cds
I'm a regular bargain hunter.
£30 on 8 CDs
My overdraft may hate me, but at least it persuaded me to pay for some music, for once ;)
don't worry
i'm predicting at least £100 for me...
I'm goin' back in.
Funkadelic- Maggot Brain for £5
And P Funk Earth Tour for £2.99
I also.
*Full Moon Fever (Tom Petty)
*Talkie Walkie (Air)
*Earth is Not a Cold Dead Place (EitS)
You should add
Ragged Glory- Neil Young & Crazy Horse to that for £3.99. And Fear Of A Black Planet by Public Enemy for £2.99.
sunna - one minute silence
what a bargain !!
Okay I'll get Public Enemy
but I can't afford anything else!
have you already got It Takes a Nation of Millions
if not, get that instead. It's a stone cold classic.
I'd buy Ragged Glory over it though. Any day.
I bought both.
(H)
DAMN MY MUSIC BUYING EMBARGO
