Bought in the last week: MCR's second, another copy of Arvo Part's Tabula Rasa to replace a recently lost one, The Fall's new 'un, Mahler's 8th and Run the Road because I've been listening to a copy for over a year. The latter is essential, the other's very good. Yet to form a proper opinion on the Fall's new 'un, but I'm sure I'll say it's somewhere between utterly amazing and peerless, as that's pretty much always my opinion.

The Destroyed Room
Children of God/ World of Skin-Swans

Rakim - The 18th Letter

Serge Gainsbourg - D'autres nouvelles des étoiles DVD (more than 4 hours of videoclips and interviews)

I bought Horace Silver's The Tokyo Blues today. It's a nice, fairly relaxed affair.

Jenny Lewis & the Watson Twins, Rabbit Fur Coat
P.J. Harvey, The Peel Sessions.....

The Flaming Lips - ""Telepathic Surgery" (Limited Edition Vinyl Reissue)

Yeah? Interesting, I recently got In a Priest-Driven Ambulance (Limited Edition Pink Vinyl reissue). It's very nice.

Also picked up Clouds Taste Metallic & Transmissions from the Satellite Heart on plain old CDs.

Other recent stuff: PJ Harvey - Rid of Me and The Church - Starfish

Not too bad a pick-up yrself. Anyway, yeah I agree. I'm enjoyng these LE reissue vinyls. Especially since they're colored vinyl.

How does Telepathic compare to In a Priest-Driven...? Similar?

Superb.
