Why is this $30? I mean, I bought it, but SC releases are generally closer to $20/$22...?
I think it's part of a series - part 2 (below) is southern soul, then there's one by Dylan, a 60s country covers record, a Christmas one, and finally a Rolling Stones one. Happy days...Not a preorder but I hadn’t heard this until just now
No mention of remastering either, because the original doesn’t sound greatWhy is this $30? I mean, I bought it, but SC releases are generally closer to $20/$22...?
That's a great, great album. Same vein as mermaid Avenue wilco/ Bragg comps.
Is that the covers of basement tapes songs? Is it any good? I’m always inherently sceptical of those types of projects.
There's a making of the album Documentary that is entertaining.
'The New Basement Tapes' Now Streaming Online
The album 'Lost on the River: The New Basement Tapes,' featuring Elvis Costello, Marcus Mumford, Jim James and more, is now streaming online.www.rollingstone.com
The best song on the album, IMO, is the best thing "The guy from Dawes" has ever done.
And I hate to admit that the Mumford boy's Kansas City is pretty good - (I prefer the Liberty Street by Mandy Moore's Husband)
Also, my boy, JJ kicks off the album with a strong offering.

I was refreshing on Best Buy hoping for a PS5 drop the minute these went live, so swirl it is for me.I tried my luck at that wax mage but it was gone in seconds.
I saw that tour! At that point, the Beastie Boys were unknown outside NYC (maybe the northeast?) and closer to punk than rap.Madonna with Beastie Boys opening, May 1985 was an intersting one.
Yeah, I picked up the black version a couple years back for like $14 from Amazon. I would repurchase this if it were in the $20 to $25 range just because all my other WOD records are on colored wax but I can’t justify spending $40 (with tax+shipping) on an album that I already own and isn’t some sort of Audiophile type pressing. I wouldn’t mind picking up the Jens LP too but, even though I don’t own a copy of that; there are new black copies available n Discogs for under $20. Paying a premium for colored wax isn’t gonna cut it for me anymore.Why is this $30? I mean, I bought it, but SC releases are generally closer to $20/$22...?
They were actually supposed to open for Guns N’ Roses in liiiike 1991? I remember being very conflicted about wanting to go but not wanting to deal with a GNR crowd. Luckily the tour swerved and they plunked in Brian May as the opener instead saving me the trouble.I saw that tour!

Usually what happened at Dave alpine shows. I think that was the only time I went in for an opener there. Otherwise it was just an extra hour or so to get wasted.I was at this show. Just watching everyone slip down the muddy hill was entertaining in itself, though I'm sure everyone in my group did as well. I don't ever remember seeing The Roots at Alpine, so must of either been that drunk or just went in late and completely missed the opener, so that's sad!
For the soundtrack or Another Day or both? I was incredibly lucky to attend Another Day, one of the best shows of my life. I really really need that.
Buying a PS5 seems like such a chore. They should have just waited until 2021 to do the launch.I was refreshing on Best Buy hoping for a PS5 drop the minute these went live, so swirl it is for me.
Was totally prepped yesterday for the super-limited Show Me A Dinosaur - Plantgazer drop on A Thousand Arms—logged in with payment info stored—and I still only managed to squeak out the second variant. Turns out they only had 10 of the first and 20 of the second for US distro. They were gone before the store could even post about orders being live!
The pandemic is mostly to blame. People had time to learn about hobbies, old or new, and just how easy it is to sell things online. Just need internet, a product and a box and it basically sells itself. Every hobby is wrecked in one way or another.Buying a PS5 seems like such a chore.

I only own a Switch at the moment and I'll probably go with the Switch Pro once it comes out, but I feel for those who want a PS5 and Xbox and can't buy one. So many annoying things keeping people from getting them easily. I can't believe how bad it is with the scalpers this time. Seems worse than any before that I can think of.
