i bit the bullet and finally joined emusic. i've spent most of my credits on older stuff, but i did get:
grant lee phillips - nineteeneightees
hal hartley - possible music
headlights - kill them with kindness
ingrid michaleson - girls and boys
julie delpy - s/t
kristy maccoll - the stiff years
all of which i'm loving. headlights sounds like a submarines/metric lovechild so i'm totally down.
i am now taking recommendations though, so let me know what's good!
