trip to the record store

today i went to twist & shout.  i shall now report back what i got:

The Temptations - With a Lot o' Soul
this just may be the hottest Temptations album.

Emmylou Harris - Luxury Liner
like many hipsters, i learned of Emmylou Harris from one of her guest appearances on a recent album.  for me it was when she sang with Elvis Costello on The Delivery Man.  Since then, I haven't been able to get her voice out of my head.

Bobby Bare and the Family - Singin' in the Kitchen
an album with songs mostly by Shel Silverstein.  As reported the other day, Bobby Bare and I share a birthday.

The Breeders - Mountain Battles
I am very glad I decided to get this album on vinyl.  it comes with a picture book with a page for each song.  i assume the cd comes with the same book, but this is a big picture book.  high quality, glossy photos that wouldn't fit in a CD sleeve.  and it also comes with a free download of the album.  when you download it from beggars group, they have a very punny message for you.  but i'll let you discover that for yourself.
