The Great CD Listen Through - Part IV

In the midst of the preceeding posts in this great CD listen-through, I acquired three new CDs. Because that really helps me get rid of CDs. This post is all about catching up with new acquisitions!

Two of them have arrived, and they fit in the As, so I thought I'd cover them now. They're both in the "keep" pile, but what the hey, I should mention them anyway, even if it's only briefly.

( All About Eve - Touched by Jesus )

( Ed Alleyne Johnson - Symphony )

The Great CD Listen Through - Part V

( Anathema - We're Here Because We're Here )

Verdict: Keep

( Apocalyptica - Plays Metallica by Four Cellos )

Verdict: TO GO - get in touch if you'd like it.

( Arena - Contagion )

Verdict: Keep - if it's mine, that is. Otherwise give it back to izzy_stradlin and acquire my own copy.

We're into the Bs

( Black Mountain - In The Future )

Verdict: Keep - even if it's just for a second chance as it's turned out better than I remembered.

The Great CD Listen Through - Part VI - Backtracking!

Hold the phone!

Cast your mind back, dear reader, to a few hours ago, when I was still in the As. There's a CD that I missed because it was loaned out at the time... but I have it in mp3 flavour, so here it is!

( Amplifier - The Octopus )

Verdict: Keep

The Great CD Listen Through - Part VII

Well, I've just hit a fairly epic "rock virtuoso supergroup" CD, so I'll keep going for a bit longer... although there's some weird stuff coming up in the Bs, so I may not last much longer tonight.

( BBM - Around The Next Dream )

Verdict: KEEP

( Black Tape for a Blue Girl - With a Million Tear Stained Memories )

Verdict: I'm not MISERABLE enough to keep this one

( Bass Communion - Ghosts on Magnetic Tape )

Verdict: The dark, murmuring voices, they tell me to keep it. They don't say what will happen if I don't... but I fear it all the same.
