Right, so finally I'm getting around to talking about what I got for the Christmas deal this year. Yup yup, two weeks into the new freaking year and I'm still back on that old thing. Yee-haw!
Pictures first, descant later. (Descant <-- desc <-- description) (Also, that IS my floor in the background. Tiled. Basement. Reason? Flood. Sometimes. Pain. In. The. Butt.)
The actual Christmas Day loot. Left to right: The Who, 20th Century Master's Collection; Blue October, Foiled; Simon and Garfunkel, Bridge Over Troubled Water; Dire Straits, Love Over Gold; Blue Öyster Cult, Cities On Flame With Rock And Roll
The accidental loot. Left to right: U2, All That You Can't Leave Behind; Audio Adrenaline, Adios: The Greatest Hits; The FIXX, Greatest Hits: One Thing Leads To Another; Rush, Retrospective; The Police, The Police (2 disc set); The Who, Who's Next
And now, the main event. Do it, Rockapella.
THE LOOT
E.S. Posthumus's long-awaited second album, Cartographer.
THE WARRANT
The explanation for the freaking long wait. And it's legit, too. Five years to make their own language? I can handle that. Listening to the Luna Sans disc, the language sound Romantic, but I could be off.
I should post later with my thoughts on all of these. Right now I'm still uber-excited about Cartographer, but I'll get to all of the others in time. And heck, I've already given Blue Öyster, Blue October, The Police, The Fixx, and one of The Who a whirl, so I'm not to terrible neglectful.
