New Additions:
Delta Nove - Fire It Up EP - This succinct summertime sizzler from Delta Nove was created with one thing in mind - make the sweltering summer months even hotter with a fiery mix of global percussion, California funk, and superbad soul! $6.99
Ekoostik Hookah - Live at the Newport DVD - Live at the Newport, recorded live at the Newport Music Hall in Columbus, Ohio, on September 21, 2007, is the first official DVD release by Ekoostik Hookah since the return of guitarist/songwriter John Mullins. The DVD features 9 original songs selected from 2 sets of music, including both new material and beloved classics, all on one DVD in an environmentally friendly, biodegradable cardboard sleeve. Track listing on the back cover features a photo of the band and a ticketstub from the show! $18.00
Railroad Earth - Amen Corner CD - Gorgeous, intricate, and atmospheric yet deliciously twangy and grooving, the musical scenery around Railroad Earth's Amen Corner is sure to stick in your mind as vividly as a stunning natural vista. This album gets more and more enjoyable with every passing song! Railroad Earth has produced their most tuneful, well-produced, and infectious effort here, with acoustic instruments zinging and ringing tastefully around vocals that make you want to sing along as best you can! $15.98
Robert Walter - Cure All CD - Instrumental jazz-funk is the name of Robert Walter's game. The top-notch organ/piano player is one of the founding members of Greyboy Allstars. He's joined here by bassist extraordinaire James Singleton (Astral Project) and drumming guru Johnny Vidacovich for a set that features pulsating grooves alongside some jazzier moments for good measure. $15.98
My Morning Jacket - Evil Urges CD - My Morning Jacket's Evil Urges moves the band into a completely new realm. With their epic sound intact, the band dabbles in a wide range of stylistic variants to create an album that is as surprising as it is enjoyable. Dashed with humor and unexpected twists along with some of MMJ's more tried-and-true elements, Evil Urges is an adventure for your ears from start to finish! $13.99
N.E.R.D. - Seeing Sounds CD or 2 LPs - Seeing Sounds, N.E.R.D.'s third album, is a blistering mash-up of booming hip-hop beats and rollercoaster rock riffs, rumbling rhythms and scintillating soul music. Whereas their first album, In Search Of..., was an imaginative exploration of identities, and their second album, Fly Or Die, sought out the range of genres and sounds that have influenced the group, Seeing Sounds grinds everything together, evoking a sound that is un-tethered by preconceptions and convention. It is also an album that amplifies the style and attitudes that have made Pharrell, Chad and Shae transcendent cultural icons. CD $16.99; 2 LPs $17.99
The Infamous Stringdusters CD - The Infamous Stringdusters' self-titled new release represents all the band has become during two years of intense touring, meticulous woodshedding, and brotherly jamming. It's their first record with accomplished guitarist Andy Falco, whose blues-infused licks and stunning virtuosity have added a new facet to the band's musical personality. It's also the first with the band's dream producer, Tim O'Brien, a Grammy-winning musician who has pioneered and embodied the progressive school of roots and bluegrass that underlies the ISD sound. $16.98
Radiohead - The Best of: The Videos DVD - 21 videos are featured on Radiohead: The Best Of The Videos DVD, including "Just," "Street Spirit," "Karma Police," "Paranoid Android," "No Surprises," "Knives Out," "Pyramid Song" and "There There." The DVD also includes the more experimental visuals created for Radiohead songs not released as singles, and nine videos make their DVD release debuts on the new collection. $22.99
My Morning Jacket - Okonokos (4 LP Box Set) - 4-LP Box set includes bonus tracks not found on the CD or DVD release - “Where to Begin,” “Sooner,” and “Strangulation.” Comes in deluxe packaging - Artwork-covered sleeves in a closed-lid box. $34.98
