Thanks GA!

I picked up this one after receiving the email:

Bobby Bradford and the Mo'tet - Lost in L.A.

I have nothing with Bradford, so I thought that I'd give it a shot.

Thanks, GA, you're the top. One might even go as far as the Colosseum.

LOL Pete!

Thanks, got Harris eisenstadt's Canada Day II with it.

Amazon seems to be handling this offer differently than prior offers. I do not see the $3 under "Redeem a gift card or promotion code & view balance." It looks like I first need to log into AmazonLocal.

[GA Russell]

mjzee, first you go to Amazon Local and buy the voucher for $0. Then you redeem the voucher and get a code. Then you redeem the code, and your credit shows up like it has in the past.

Got it! Very arcane process. Thanks, GA!

[BFrank]

"Arcane" is putting it mildly.

I got one, though!

Thanks, GA.

Picked up Alabama Shakes Boys & Girls with this one. Thanks GA!

[BFrank]

Let me know what you think of Alabama Shakes.

My friends and I saw them at SXSW and weren't impressed - but we seem to be in the minority. This group gets raves wherever they play.

[GA Russell]

You're welcome everyone!

I wound up getting the Charles Mingus twofer The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady/Mingus Mingus Mingus Mingus Mingus for $3.99.

They're pretty good, BF. My friend was playing the album yesterday while we BBQ'd and watched fireworks at The Rose Bowl. The lady singer has a very soulful voice. The instrumentals are sweet without being sickly. Sincere, good quality music. The downside is it all sounds a little same-y, from track to track. I imagine they're fun live.

She has a good voice and presence, but when we saw them the band seemed somewhat uninspired. Same-y would be a good description.

Actually, here's the show! Maybe I should watch it again.
