The Fluxus Among Us

Silly ideas go somewhere. Why not this little blog as an extension of the place where missing socks go?

My Recently Purchased iTunes

I got myself one of those prepaid iTunes cards so I could get some songs that I liked but didn't want to buy the entire album. iTunes came loaded on my computer so I guess it's all right. There are other services that sell downloadable songs, etc. but I figured I'd go with Apple since, inasmuch as I can have respect for a corporation, I like them as a company. I guess that the purchase of singles is sort of a '50s early '60s thing, but $0.99 per seems a better deal than the price of CD singles and/or 7" singles. The first single I bought was 45 of A Flock of Seagulls, Wishing (I Had A Photograph Of You). I think it cost about $1.99 back then so the price is even better now.
That aside, these are some songs I liked from albums I already have on another format, used to own and didn't want to buy again, or didn't want to pay $15 for.

1. Busy Signal (Make You Go Bombing Mix) - Prefuse 73
2. If You Want Blood - Mark Kozelek
3. Ingrid Bergman - Billy Bragg and Wilco
4. Mama Tried 'The Ballad From Killers Three' - Merle Haggard
5. Sugar - Stevie Wonder
6. Reasons (Live) - Earth, Wind & Fire
7. 4 1/2 Inch - The Fall
8. All The TVs In Town - The Handsome Family

A bunch of rarities really, of which some or maybe all will form the basis of entries on the records blog.
