So far I prefer Here Come the Warm Jets. -
So yeah, rejoining eMusic, Amie Street closing, and the great Guvera giveaway led me to get as many albums last month as would normally take a year. I cut out the individual tracks and put albums from the same artist together and it's still around 1…

I think it happened a few months ago. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think they switched digital distribution channels, upped the VBR settings, and switched to album pricing all at the same time. There was an announcement in the forums to gi…

Would definitely make at least my top 10 of the 90s. -

If Tag & Rename costs money, I'd suggest exploring Mp3tag instead. I used it for years until switching to foobar2000 as my player. You can do all sorts of batch re-tagging and re-naming with both.
As for the great Guvera giveaway, a … -
Color me surprised - I have about 48 on the best of the 90s and added another 3 with the EMI promo. I'll skip the whole Pearl Jam vs. Nirvana debate and just point out that they ignored a whole lot o' great electronic music.

Going through those lists I'm just shocked at how much I have from the 70s list and how little I have from the 80s. The 90s will probably just depress me (my guess is very little of what I consider the best of that decade would make it).

My guess is that they are using their back catalog as a loss leader. Taking a hit in order to drive traffic and promote the brands. The one lesson some labels seem to have finally learned is that the majority of their back catalog will just sit the…
The McCartney albums are really a pain in the ass. Got McCartney and now McCartney II. Ram, London Town, etc., nothing else seems available on the promo.
Yeah, Guvera can be real flakey that way. I still haven't been able to listen to this one, and I'm real curious.That would be great if UMG did something similar next month. At this point I'm grabbing just about anything that sounds remotely interesting. Golden Palominos thanks to Katrina. Pan African Orchestra from elwoodicious. Last night it was The Atomi…Doh! I can't believe I already forgot what Miss Ann looks like. I blame it on the lack of album artwork. Now the debate is whether or not to grab her first 2 albums. #5 sounds like a challenge :PAlright, BT, I recognize the first lovely lady but can't think of her name. #2 is off Real World and I was sampling her music the other day. #3 I don't know at all. #4 is Carrie Rodriguez - checking her out now. And #5 is the exotic Miss Sioux, corr…"Hey now, hey now, don't dream it's over."
So much to be excited by, and yet so much missed...
What a stunning debut.(Quote)
I just find it funny that with all of the classic rock, jazz, world, and experimental albums acquired from Guvera this month, it's still the sexy pop diva that got me the most excited. No matter how much my tastes expand, I'll alwa…
All hail our Guvera Overlords!Thankfully my Phils just clinched their division and the best record in the NL. Here's hoping for a third straight pennant!Can't complain at all. It was a fantastic promo. I'm just annoyed at myself for missing a track yesterday and not completing Ben Harper's Lifeline. Now I have to wait for the last one. Although I still hold out hope that some more credits will appea…Come on! There's 3 more days!
