Oh, Manchester, So Much To Answer For

so, I've actually been rather busy lately (having an active social life = a good thing), which is why I've been blogging less than usual. have got some nice new cds, though. jeff made me a josh rouse comp, "pure pop perfection," which on first listen is pretty nice. mentioned the coastalfolk comp earlier. and last night I actually went to the evil best buy and picked up the new nickel creek and o, yeah! ultimate aerosmith hits, which is one those all-killer-no-filler comps: everything you need, nothing you don't. very sweet. the nickel creek, through the first couple of listens, is superb. they cover pavement's "spit on a stranger"?!! beautiful.
