That bird in the picture is dead. It is an ex-emu. Was that the subliminal part?

Today's deal is Sonny Landreth's From The Reach - $2.99. Highly recommended.

Eh, methodically....not really, unfortunately. I fell across this morning's by accident, but because it was a Rounder that went to album pricing when IODA did I'm going to take a closer look at those. I'm going to scan my eMusic … -
I like b).

What? Rampant drama and vituperation aren't enough to justify the monthly fee?
Seriously, I suppose sometime next month they might actually get back to talking about music over there. Or not, since there hasn't been a… -
Doofy, I'm getting the "Oops page" on the eMu link - saboteurs and wreckers at work over there doubtlessly, but thanks for the Prestige link - that's way cool info.

With over 1000 titles on my various SFL lists I've never had to feel compelled to download something just to use up the monthly allotment. It's more of a struggle figuring out what to download. Obviously not everything on those lists is going to b…

Just a reminder to all - look out for any Complete My Album freebies at eMu - they have not addressed exactly how or if that will be impacted, but better not to take chances. I just picked up 9 free Burning Spear tracks because that Rounder release…

Album - Tenor Conclave, at eMu under Hank Mobley. 4 tracks, 2 are single credit. The other two tracks, Tenor Conclave, and How Deep Is The Ocean are on Guvera.

Just to chime in that really it's about value not just money, I'm happy as a pig in s**t because I just received and have playing a CD that cost me more than my whole monthly Premium at eMu will - Bear Family import Volume 10 of the That'll Flat Git…

Vis a vis Rounder - they are a test case for me in several ways. Even now I have trouble plunking down 12 credits or vicinity thereof for releases that are only 30 something minutes long because they are country/bluegrass/folky kind of material. I…

Only angle I feel fairly sure on is that if there are newer releases you're sitting on in SFL you might want to hit them prior to the conversion because they would seem more likely to be priced higher than the moldy oldies that will theoretically re…

It seems to me that we have passed through the Golden Age of Digital Downloading where the fruits were cheap and bountiful, a brief Silver Age is closing wherein massive mispriced boxsets were once to be had and some bargains and true gems were yet …

Here's a complementary video for your amusement - link.
See the program The Colors Of Infinity featuring Arthur C. Clarke (PBS?) for a full explanation of … -
Far out! Finally a list with stuff I own.

Well, along came Wednesday and some innocent browsing at Amazon led me to a Chess Rockabillies volume of the Bear Family That'll Flat Git It series - ouch, I stepped right into that Bear trap - there were some remarkable performances I have on a cas…

Got three - never had anything from Gilt Man before which was 2 - pecked away at previous projects.
Project for the future - find , and post, long tracks that could complete albums, ahem, elsewhere, which said long tracks kick up from 6 … -
Time to stop talking, and time to start doing, Twinkies.
As a native of that other city I felt I just had to throw that down, since even though I don't care that deeply about baseball anymore there is after all only one team in it that has eve… -
I actually was perusing Internet Archive about a month ago before the Amie situation hit the fan and was being pleasantly surprised at how many bands I like had material on there, some a lot of material, so's I guess I'll go back to that for some fr…

More like a New and Notable Unrelease, but did anyone notice the powers that be over at eMu disappeared that 12 credit Fela Kuti Zombie Batch 3? I guess that 21 songs at 5.2 hours wasn't what they intended for that much. It's not to be found and …

Well, only about 7 weeks before Black Friday and Cyber-Monday deals on Amazon. Something to look forward to in this valley of dearth. Got some good deals last year, mostly in hard discs.
-
You're only as good as your last performance, they say. They also say, what have you done for me lately - since like Oct. 1 .
I'd happily jump through some hoops were additional hoops to be provided.
Big black chicken, leave us an egg..… -
I love you, Guvera. I just got, courtesy of Geico, the 13:06 I'll Remember April from the album The Charles Mingus Quartet plus Max Roach. See 68's Thawts thread for all the reasons this has made my day in a small way. I couldn't freakin' buy thi…
-
I checked one of my backlists, found the Charles Mingus Quartet plus Max Roach - Fantasy, 6 tracks, 12 credits. 5 single credit tracks, and I'll Remember April at 13:06 in length kicking it up another 7 credits. I DL'd the 5, and I'll live without…

If I'm being honest...it was the music of the 90's that made me appreciate that there was a lot of 70's music that didn't suck as much as I had thought it did at the time, it even made some of the 80's look better. I'm a 50's/60's type guy musicall…

Well start piling up stones, I must be some kind of revanchist - I have precisely 3 of the Pitchfork 90's list - Dylan's Time Out Of Mind, and In Utero and Nevermind - the last two thanks to the 7dig Xmas sale last year. Funny because I bought a lo…

Well, drat, I actually had a list for this morning. Just have to see what the future brings....
Last night, musing upon the future, I was thinking if there were to be a band seriously underrepresented in your collection, presented with … -
That's how it works! We are being turned into Guvera zombies, shuffling along, chanting, "More credits. More credits." Soon we will be Guveranated, putty in their hands. I want at least the 31 a day back for my autonomy.
