This one was in print and then sold out and jumped to a ridiculous price.  Fortunately, Intrada did another release, but it seems that this run is almost gone as well, so snagged a copy.  If you enjoy Lalo, go to the Intrada site and they may have a copy of this short run tv soundtrack left.

Great disk. That was my first Neil Young cd.

Thanks. It was recommended as being his best album by a number of people on another board, so I thought I should have it.

Spatial distortion is a serious problem deteriorating headphone listening.
Crossfeeders reduce spatial distortion and make the sound more natural
and less tiresome in headphone listening.

Went to my local MovieStop (plus Best Buy) and here are the results of my conquest:













* I've already started watching The Flash and find it very enjoyable. I've seen the first three episodes so far and it just keeps getting better.

Some great, and some good stuff there, John.  Considering the Flash set myself.  Our whole family loves the show.  Just watched Winter's yesterday.  One of Marvel' best efforts to date....along with The Avengers.  Just wasn't thrilled with the Ultron addition.

Thanks, Bill. The Winter Soldier will be next on my to-watch list as the first installment, The First Avenger left me hanging. :) The Flash is, indeed, a great show and is quite good fun all-around. I think it's one of the best superhero shows on right now along with Arrow and Daredevil. I haven't watched any of The Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. yet. Would be curious to know if you've seen any of this show and what you think of it?

I found the first Thor excellent as well.  At first I thought the small town background was a head scratcher, but now that almost every super hero movie crushes a metropolis, the Thor setting is kind of refreshing.  The second Thor....well, ....hmmmm....yup....pretty much bit.

Having not seen either Thor, I can't comment on whether I enjoy them or not, but I've always enjoyed the character in the comics.

Got hooked on Róisín Murphy only a month or two ago, and there's already something new for me to look forward to in the summer.  New stuff from Garbage, too.  Pre-ordered so I'll be pleasantly surprised when the arrive.

Todays purchases:



Upgrading my copies of these albums from MP3 to CD.



Relented and pre-ordered the new Radiohead album.



Quite like this group - didn't have this one (its a re-release of their first album).

George

Also picked up the new Radiohead (was gonna suggest you check it out, Conor!) and the new Dylan, another Sinatra cover album. The latter I haven't heard, the former is very good.
