What CDs have you bought recently?

[Kevy Baby]

My most recent full-album puchase was Dream Academy. Yeah it's 20 years old, but I still dig it. I also want to get my hands on Terence Trant D'Arby's first CD. I still got about $30 in my iTunes account, so that may be next.

Otherwise I have been having fun finding techno and trance remixes of old Rock & Roll and 80's KROQ stuff. Also, some oddities like "Don't Box Me In" by Stuart Copeland and Stan Ridgeway (from the "Rumblefish" Soundtrack), "Elvis is Everywhere" by Mojo Nixon ("...everyone except the evil anti-ElvisL Michael J. Fox") and "Don't Pay the Ferryman" by Chris DeBurgh (he actually rocked before "Lady in Red")

My amazon order finally came in! I got:


Gram Rabbit - Music to Start a Cult to (heard a song on KCRW and added it to my wish list)

Brazilian Girls - self titled (heard interview on NPR and new I had to have them)

Françoise Hardy - The Vogue Years (recommended by a 60's French pop site I frequent)

Talking Heads - The Name of this band is Talking Heads (Live 1977-1981 - replacing vinyl)

I don't buy enough cd's.......

I picked up the 'Great Expectations' soundtrack.....

QOTSA 'Lullabies to Paralyze'.

Lots of Beatles is being played lately...the Hubster. But the house isn't so big that he can play one selection and me another......so I hear a lot of Beatles when he is home......When did he ever start buying CD's?

Just got 5 more CDs from Amazon Japan. One is unashamedly J-Pop, the rest are Disney-related. Why oh why does Disney release the coolest music in Japan and saddle us with Disneymania volume 1-3? It seems like they're just remembering how to merchandise clothing and collectibles to us, now howzabout some music?
