Barry Adamson - As Above, So Below

(available for $0.22)

 

Former member of The Bad Seeds and Magazine.... like soundtrack music without the movie. Jazz-inflected and dark. The guy is excellent.

Here's one I never thought I'd see for a penny:

The Birth of the Cool by Miles Davis

 

http://www.amazon.com/Birth-Cool-Miles-Davis/dp/B000005HF9/ref=sr_1_408?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1248239777&sr=1-408

 

Seriously, everybody should own this.

Probably available for $.01 because Columbia releases a new package of this about every 3 months and this is an older one.

Just picked it up.

Thanks for the heads-up!

This one is like a melodic hybrid of Black Sabbath and Nirvana. No classic, but still some really great heavy rock on here.

My favorite Floyd album.

 

So I have yet to buy the .01$ albums. What do you end up paying for shipping on these? Is it still worth it?

 

Yes, you pay $2.98 shipping.

For $2.99, I'd say that a lot of these records are well worth it.

Wow, not bad at all and totally worth it. I was picturing it costing more than that for some reason. I'm going to have to try and show some restraint.

I have been finding some really great deals lately. I try to keep it under $7 (including shipping) and have come away with some really great albums. Some recent steals have been about 5 Mountain Goats cds, 2 Jeremy Enigk cds, 2 Wrens cds, and a Silver Jews cd all for less than $7 including shipping = awesome.

Used for $0.33!

House of Freaks - Cakewalk

Used for $0.01!!!

 

Both are dark, gothic folk/pop. And both are hidden gems. The general consensus is that Tantilla is the better record, yet I still prefer Cakewalk, which has a few industrial elements -- odd percussion and the like. Both are outstanding purchases for the price, though!

 

And, Bryan Harvey... R.I.P.
