So I was at the mall (rant to be posted elsewhere), and I saw Kemp Mill Records was going out of business, everythign 50% off.
So I look for a few bands, Mark Whitfield, Bela Fleck, The Cure, The Kinks, Hepcat, and Bad Manners were all gone, naturally, all being too popular and/or obscure for there to be any stock left on these. Only the latest U2 album was left, adn I wasn't sufficiently motivated to purchase.
However, I did walk away with 4 CDs.
A Matthew Sweet compilation of his early stuff
Rush, Vapor Trails (yeah, it was about time I got around to that one)
Sheryl Crow's latest
And a TMBG CD. I can't remember the name. Not even sure why I got it, as i think I actually purchased most of the tracks from some website on mp3. <shrug> It's a good 'un at least.
As I left the mall I only regretted that I didn't grab a copy of Eric Clapton's "Riding with the King," a duet effort with B B King which I know to be excellent. But I'm poor and shouldn't have really bought the 4 I got, so I'll live.
