  • " You came back! Toto, you came back!"

    Logged in at about 11:30 Eastern and the 21 I hadn't gotten to were back. Finished off the rest of the deluxe Tull - This Was. Hope for tomorrow.
  • Anyone have any nominations for the weirdest thing they've downloaded(from the hey, it's free category)?

    I thought it was: I Put A Spell On You from Marilyn Manson, but I'm Going To Booglarize You Baby from Captain Beefheart and the Mag…
  • Well, no use crying over evaporated milk I guess - glad I got a few this morning, and the last week's acquisitions were truly sweet, and free?!!, that is just too cool.

    Although, if I had thought they were going to be among the last I mi…
  • >>>I have noticed that I occasionally forget to change the search box to search by artist. Could that have been the issue for you on Bowie?

    Doh! Thank you Craig. That would explain why the second artist I look for usually come…
  • I'm perplexed by the number of artists that show up negative if you put them in the Search box but if you do the more laborious browse search you will find, David Bowie for one. Just in case anyone has been discouraged by that feature.
    From l…
  • Found the phenomenal Linda Ronstadt & Ann Savoy album Adieu False Heart https://www.guvera.com/search?q=album_id:+"015707980852" which I bought on CD a…
  • thom, watch out for reissue Strangler tracks that have had horrid extraneous crap added to them - I got stuck with some from the No More Heroes album which I have on vinyl and they really ruined the fun. I'll look up what the source was when I get …
  • Chucho Valdes Live At The Village Vanguard.

    There are also several albums by Cachao, also Arsenio Rodriguez.
  • Got Grant Green's Grant's First Stand(RVG Remaster), and followed Grant onto a nice album called Blue Guitar with other tracks by Jim Hall, Jimmy Shirley, and Sal Salvador amongst others. And there are a lot of UFO albums.
  • Amie is down again for Maintenance this morning, so I guess I'll finish cashing out (about $10), and spend it ASAP, in case there are further last minute rushes. Remember to back up before they go RIP - did the usual DVD backup this morning and it…
  • Well, after initial suspicion I've signed up and after the initial confusion wore off I've been able to supplement the collection with tracks from reissues of CDs I already have - Space Oddity 40th Anniversary, Tull's This Was Deluxe Edition, Floyd…
  • Ah, man, tried to get the new PIR and the transaction wouldn't go through. What a beat!
  • For any flatpicking fans, I could just tell from the album cover that this wasn't in fact an album by a group I never heard of but another mislabelled Various Artists, namely :

    Delaware Tan (David Grier & Tim Stafford)
    Upside D…
  • Just snagged this album by Cuban legend Cachao - link for $2. Still nuggets in them that hills.
  • Doublewide And Live by Southern Culture On The Skids which is available at Amie if they ever unspasticate over there.
  • What happens when Rick Rubin is 70?
  • Craig, didn't you get the bad news kiss-off e-mail from Amie? It had the Amazon $5 code in it. I used mine the first night to soften the blow of buying the deluxe version of Strange New Flesh by Colosseum II which I had had my eye on for a little …
  • Of course if the sales of that album tank, then you go and get a bunch of twenty-something hot stars and put out a forward looking collaboration relevant to the latest and greatest ideas in music proving the lasting importance of your roots.
  • I know not of what you speak, but provided I were to get there, it might go like:

    OK, you get 60 and you're good and damned well surprised to still be here, so maybe you'd better start taking better care of yourself in case you'll be aro…
  • Right? Hell yeah, you're right. I heard that! You got that right.
  • My first concert was the Stones at the Garden - the Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out shows. When the deluxe package came out last year I went, Wow - Ike & Tina? So that's who the other act I couldn't remember was, I knew there had been somebody else. That …
  • Now that I know what LFS is, I am still curious how you define "Jaded" as applied to Mr. B. because I have several more hours to spare, since Amie has gone wonky again, EBFL, I think, that is Everybody's Back From Lunch.
  • K, please define "jaded", is that like recent era? Seems to span the career since there are some titles I don't know, which would be recent probably, but mostly from the earlier half of his career I'd think, so would those be pre-"disco"? A couple…
  • Finally managed a couple of purchases just now - still slooooowwwwww.


    May I just point out there are 2 live Roy Buchanan albums available for under $4 - American Axe '74 is really good, and worthy of Roy's legacy for anybody who wa…
  • This is a very weird album thus far. FWIW it was either $17.98 or $15.98 at Amazon, can't remember, and it was a charity album for War Child, which makes me wonder why is it on sale?
  • Was able to purchase yesterday afternoon, which I was able to download last night, along with the backlogged stuff, but not able to purchase last night or today, and FWIW my balance is mixed real credit/cash out. Was able to cash out Recs last nig…
  • What did everybody get back from lunch at once? Got the blank white page again on an artist page.

    "Legs in the air, legs in the air,
    Lying like a clock with my legs in the air."

    Gregor Samsa experienced a miraculous re…
  • Finally got some business done - several albums on Hightone - Dave Alvin, Buddy Miller, Joe Louis Walker - and a Motorhead album, Motorizer, that I've had on the eMu SFL for a long time. Can't DL at work though, so hope we's still running tonight. …
  • >>Amie totally blew off every CS request I made over the last few months, including one about that Pavement set.

    Yeah, I got no response to my last several complaints - like the first track King of the Willow Tree from Sofia Talvik…
  • I'm down. I'm really down. I'm down.
    How can you laugh when you know I'm down?

    Well, tahmorrah is another day.
