This year, I’ve already bought more CD’s than I did last year. It feels weird yet it symbolized my budget cutting/dissatisfaction with 2011 music. But all the CD’s I bought now are at least 25 years old or older. Consider this my lesson for only downloading singles and having no idea of how they sound in context.
In the last two months, I’ve bought 6 CD’s. All of them between $6-10.
•Prince’s entire output with the Revolution (1999, Purple Rain, Around the World in A Day and Parade)
•U2’s “The Joshua Tree”
•Guns N’ Roses “Appetite for Destruction”
