Vinyl:

Forgot that showed up in my mailbox too. I was a little disappointed that they didn't include the CD bonus tracks with this version, although the liner notes were pretty cool.

so what do you think of the white album?

[Nakedprey]

I used to like INXS as a teenager, but they kind of slipped off my radar around the time grunge/alt rock exploded. I have gaffled up most of their catalogue over the past 2 weeks as I have been in the mood for them. Most of these were pretty cheap:

INXS
The Swing
Underneath the Colours
Shabooh Shoobah
Listen Like Thieves
Kick (rebought this, used to have the cassette)
X (got the rare remastered version)
Welcome to Wherever You Are
Full Moon, Dirty Hearts

and yes, even Switch (it was only $0.99)

Haven't found a cheap copy of Elegantly Wasted yet.

Digital purchases:

The 88 - This Must Be Love
Slide - Dime Store Queer (single)

[Religious Burp]

Re: Inxs, I have a lot of their stuff that I've collected over the past year. Elegently Wasted is a great song and a good album. Don't forget Michael Hutchence's solo album if you can track it down.

[Canuck Monk]

Recently purchased:

The Choir - Chase The Kangaroo

Off emusic:

Michael Roe - We All Gonna Face The Rising Sun
Harrod and Funck - S/T
Derek Webb & Sandra McCracken - When The Summer's Gone
Pierce Pettis - Making Light Of It
16 Horsepower - Folklore

Ordered:

The Violet Burning - Mercy Songs

[drenchedecent]

so what do you think of the white album?

It is great. I have always liked the Beatles, but never enough to really explore their catalog. I would love to have all of their stuff, just not a priority. I also have the Love compilation.

[popvoxmusic]

I got:
Splendora- "Bootleg Pre-release Version"
and
Future of Forestry- "Travel II" EP

The Future of Forestry is easily the best EP I've heard in years. I feel almost silly, listening to the same six songs over and over again, but it's really that good.

[drenchedecent]

I got:
Splendora- "Bootleg Pre-release Version"

this EP is AMAZING.

[popvoxmusic]

this EP is AMAZING.

Yeah, it is. I already had all the songs from Fluffy vs. Phantasmic, but it's cool to have the standalone EP as well. That cover of Eyes Without a Face is perfect.

[Religious Burp]

Stevie Wonder - Number Ones
The Pixies - Wave of Mutilation (Best of)

I hear people rave about the pixies, espeically lots of artists that I respect. But I only really know "Monkey Goes To Heaven" which I do really enjoy. Listening to the CD right now to see what all the hype is about.

[CaptainMainsail]

Coconut Records - Davey
Jenny Lewis - Acid Tongue
Animal Collective - Fall Be Kind
Broadcast - Witch Cults of the Radio Age
Editors - In This Light and On This Evening
Spiritualized- Songs in A&E (late on this one, I know)

And the best one of all...
Julian Casablancas - Phrazes For The Young
