Led Zeppelin - How the West Was Won

That's the only CD I've bought this year :(
But I just found out Steely Dan's released a new CD,
so I'm gonna buy it and Pet Shop Boys - Disco 3,
because I have the first two.

[ShyShy]

Papadoc, are the PetShop Boys cds new material??? and if so, are they any good?

[papadoc]

The first two Disco's were just remixes.
But Disco 3 has some new songs on it.
They're all still remixes, but I've heard
this is the best one so far.
If you like Pet Shop Boys (like I do)
then they're pretty good.

[Cylob]

Disco 3 is regarded as their best album in 10 years. I wouldn't call myself a PSB fan (more a fan of good music), but it's stirling stuff. Pumping party material.

Mull Historical Society - Loss
The White Stripes - Elephant

...and I think the Thrills album is one to look forward to gettting (released here tomorrow, I do believe)

[laz]

I dont think I have even heard a new album this year. I have just been getting stuff from long ago (ie. jimi hendrex).

[apollos]

Michelle Branch - Hotel Paper. I wish we had American charts, at least they have more bearable music and less of that trash like Girls Aloud and David Squinteyes :p

[Mr Jones]

David Squinteyes? :weird:
