Fushitsusha - Double Live (PSF 15/16)

Thanks, Julio, for reminding me in another thread that I still needed to snag those jewels!

Also, nearly completed my High Rise collection a couple of weeks ago by getting:

Psychobomb
Durophet
Live
Disallow
Psychedelic Speed Freaks '84 - '85
Desperado
(Speed Free Sonic is on back order)

These were oddly a supplement to the 2 10-disc High Rise La Musica boxes I've had for some time, which I suppose is the opposite of the way most folks would do it...

and... Acid Mothers Temple - St. Capt. Freakout & the Magic Bamboo Request, which is really tres awesome in headphones..........

Will be snagging the new Flaming Lips CD EP soon...

as for me, i bought/got, in the last 2/3 weeks:

the Gun Club - Fire of Love
Woven Hand - Blush
Tröckener Kecks - Één op één miljoen/Betaalde liefde [=dutch]
La Düsseldorf - La Düsseldorf
At the Close of Every Day - Zalig zijn de armen van geest
Daft Punk - Discovery
Prayer Boat - Polychinelle (finally bought it on cd, to replace my copy)
A Certain Ratio - Early

no problem man! you'll love those.

And on order:
Manitoba - Up in Flames
Coloma - Finery (very excited about this based on what I've heard online, although the nice guy at the counter seemed a little skeptical that they'd be able to get it for me)

And REALLY I have to cut back on CD purchases; this has been the "worst" month ever and I can't keep spending like this. REALLY.

Actis' Band - Don Quijote
Dominic Duval w/The C.T. String Quartet - Under The Pyramid
Susan Alcorn & Dr Eugene Chadbourne - An Afternoon In Austin ...or, Country Music for Harmolodic souls
Dr Eugene Chadbourne - I Talked To Death In Stereo
Hans Reichel & Tom Cora - Angel Carver (live 1988)

...oh okeh: the last one's a cd-r, so i didnnae 'xaktly "buy" it ...and the four before that were sent as a present by a friend ...but most of the rest were cut price

Fruit Bats - "Mouthfuls" - I have a weakness for that jingle jangle morning shit

Minus 5 - "Down with Wilco" - which I haven't actually listened to yet.

That new Sadies album, the name of which eludes me, which I also have yet to hear

And on order: GoGoGo Airheart, the new Ex Models, the Majesticons.
