It has been 6 weeks or so since my last blog about my CDs. The wife and kids spent the last 10 days of September in Indiana and I stayed home with the dogs, the fish and the toad. This left me with a lot of time to kill evenings and weekends. I hit a great 4/$1 sale only to find a greater 5/$1 sale at the next store. I then hit the 1/2 Priced Books clearance rack and paid the outrageous price of 1/$1 for the balance on the list below.

- Becoming the Archetype “Celestial Completion”: I am not sure what to call this genre but it is growing on me. Mostly breakneck speed drumming and strumming and then some screaming / growling thrown in for good measure.
- Various Artists “All You Need Is Love”: This 4 track disk appears to have been only available at Starbucks and I only bought it for the U2 song that is on it.
- Depeche Mode “Enjoy The Silence”: I am breaking a Listening Project rule by listing this here as this is really a 8 track “single” release with 6 versions of the same song. Some I liked, some not so much.
- Boston “Don’t Look Back” & “Third Stage”: Even at $1 each, these were good finds. I don’t think there is any rhyme or reason to the logic behind getting put on the clearance price at 1/2 Priced Books.
- Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers “Into The Great Wide Open” & “She’s The One Soundtrack”: These were both in the 4/$1 or 5/$1 rack. A great find if you ask me.
- Suzanne Vega “Solitude Standing”: This includes her hit song, “Luka” and this one has spent the last month in my CD player in the Buick. Awesome stuff.
- Temple Of The Dog “Temple Of The Dog”: A little disappointed as the song “Hunger Strike” (the only one I had heard before buying this CD) is the only song I cared for at first listen.
I have not really blogged in 6 weeks and it has been 2 weeks since I finished listening to these new CDs. I just could not get motivated to sit down for 15 minutes to write a new blog. Perhaps I have outgrown blogging?
