EMI might make some money out of this....I'm looking at and interested in some artists that weren't too forward on my radar because they weren't available at those "other" outlets my focus had been upon. Given how much I'm enjoying listening to son…

What chu wanna know, man? They've been re-tooling the site a lot - emphasis on tool in my book. New releases have been totally whack lately. I just hang in there because I've got about 1300 possibilities in various SFL lists that I can probably g…

Choose wisely, Grasshopper......
Gulp, one day. What to complete? Complement? So little time.....
Just to bitch however - how come they don't have the newly released Bowie Station To Station deluxe? What a beat! -
Another lovely morning - finished off Bowie's Aladdin Sane 30th Anniversary, and filled in a bunch of tunes from Freddie King's Shelter Records albums, just in case I never get those cassettes digitized. They are not my favorites, those are from wh…

Whew! Damned if persistence ain't a virtue. A forlorn hope pays off.

SRM, you might find this amusing - skipping over how old I was at the time, I had a Columbia Record Club membership, and This Was was an album I bought purely on whim because the cover was so strange - and it turned out to be a great album.Same here, no refresh. Got a nice basketful of goodies - have to wait to see if these artists show up on eMu on the next continental shift, fill in a few holes. Really did get some music here that I'm excited to listen to - which is a good thing. …If I only had a brain...I could remember who I found yesterday on Sugar Hill covered by the promo, and I've blown my downloads for the day so I can't check for sure on this but this Albert Lee album is also on Sugar Hill - in Guvera Comment by BigD-Bluez September 2010Found this album by accident - if you enter it in Search it didn't show up - Miles Davis The Blue Note and Capitol Recordings - some of the songs are listed as Cannonball Adderly, some from other albums - in Guvera Comment by BigD-Bluez September 2010Spent a number on 1981's The Lounge Lizards by The Lounge Lizards - link . Now have to research who the Austin Lounge Lizards are - rather different vibe.I just found how I may coast out the month there by entering Blue Note as an Album search, then just ignore the ones that are "at The Blue Note" which seem to be on other labels (so far). 35 pages, candy in most aisles. Sweet.I will fess up and admit I bought the CDs of the new deluxe SRV Couldn't Stand The Weather(because of the concert material on disc 2) and Govt Mule's Mulennium triple disc and weeks later I still have only managed to hear the first disc of Mulennium…If anybody likes Joan Baez - link - there is a lot here. The Vanguard Visionaries album is promo and some others at least - there were too many pages to…I was looking up Syd Barrett - link - and found this peculiar album Insane Times - 25 British Psychedelic Artefacts From the EMI Vaults - in Guvera Comment by BigD-Bluez September 2010>>>Not sure how I will spend my Tuesday mornings from now on, I might have to work.
I hear you on that. Amie was my best pastime - I couldn't DL at the job but I could shop and buy and DL it at home later. With all the crap t…Am I bugging or has the number of tracks available from Piper At The Gates Of Dawn been different on different days?Snap peas - I just found this album available on the promo - Creole Bred - link - which has some very interesting contributors. I realize I picked up the David…HOW MUCH DO YOU EXPECT FROM YOUR FREE TRACKS?
DO YOU FEEL IT TOTALLY SUCKS IF YOU'RE ONLY GETTING A 2 OR 3 MINUTE CRAMPS TRACK VERSUS A 7 OR 8 MINUTE JAZZ OR PROG TRACK?
OR IS IT BETTER TO GET A SHORT TRACK FOR FREE SO WHEN YOU GET A LON…Yeah, I expected to find about 10 left tonight but there was only 1 - the loneliest number. Wassup?Now that I'm paying 40 cents a download, as opposed to the 25 before the "restructuring", I'm a lot more cautious, as evidenced by the 1300 or so titles I have in various SFL lists over there. I don't pull the trigger as glibly by far - except if I…Some kind of box called The Eddie Cochran Story, 5+ pages,link, also a decent Gene Vincent disc - in Guvera Comment by BigD-Bluez September 2010More meandering - Merle Travis and Joe Maphis link - for a classic country gittar fix. Not finding a lot of old country so far. Speaking of old country th…Is that Arnie Fluffkin from Spinal Tap?You want it nasty? Just found some Cramps = Psychedelic Jungle, Off The Bone, Songs The Lord Taught Us - all on the promo linkDoofy, thanks for King Kong - one of my most unexpected concert pleasures was being taken to the Felt Forum for Zappa and a 20 piece orchestra - all instrumental- sublime.My Amie bookmark took me directly to an Amazon "welcome" window this morning, as does Google, on either of my browsers.This morning's meanderings through promo - Little Games by The Yardbirds, not exactly their primo album but has some live cuts my CD didn't, and Jeff Beck's Beckola and a Truth/beckola combo, which are primo.
Yow, Lightnin' Hopkins The C…If anybody needs some Gary Moore the earlier albums from his blues revival are in the promo, although some later ones aren't( If you've seen them on eMu they're not promo) - the listings are totally bewildering outside of After Hours, because a load…Oh, duh!, I kept looking for the new deluxe Station To Station - it would be just too cool but it is EMI/Virgin after all, but, duh, today is the 21st not the 28th. oh, merde!Farewell and adieu to you Try Again windows - finally, miraculously, got to buy that Walter Trout album I've been trying to buy for 4 days. Added another Reefer Blues album because it was the first thing I found at the right price point and I'm don…
