If you aren’t in the mood for a foot-long sub at Subway (and who isn’t?), parlay that money into some good music from Amazon. I got an email about a $5 sale they are having on 50 of it’s MP3 albums. I thought it would be fun to click through and see all the no-name artists that they had there… except that some of them are quite popular. I did get a chuckle from The Raspberries (not to be confused with The Cranberries), but seeing Aerosmith’s Big Ones
Here are some other highlights:
- Death Cab For Cutie’s We Have the Facts and We’re Voting Yes
- James Taylor’s Covers
- Kenny Rogers’ The Gambler
- Marvin Gaye’s Number 1’s
There are more to choose from, but I’m kind of biased towards the Boston music: Aerosmith, James Taylor, even the Death Cab for Cuties album has a song called Lowell, MA on it. They had Dolly Parton, Kanye West, The Greatful Dead, and Etta James… something for everyone.
Go check out Amazon’s $5 albums
Steve’s going to smite you for that iTunes comment.
For some reason, when I buy albums, I like to buy the physical disc – but I buy individual tracks electronically (on iTunes, of course).
Maybe I’ll scamper over to Amazon to see if they have “When I’m 64”, which is not available on iTunes :(
