Albums I Loaded on to My MP3 Player Today

The clickable ones are things I downloaded from eMusic.com today. They now have an annual pricing plan for each of their membership levels that's about 20% less than the monthly fee I've been paying. I know I'm addicted, there's no point in denying it, so I went ahead and signed up, which got me an extra 90 tracks just after my regular subscription had renewed. They keep adding more and more quality record labels, Nettwerk and Touch and Go are the latest to dump a whole pile of interesting discs onto the site. Here's the items added to the nonPod . . .

22-20s, 22-20s
Akoya, Introducing the Akoya Afrobeat Ensemble

And yes, this was my big accomplishment of the day so far. Unless you count making a bitchin' tuna salad sandwich for lunch. Mmmmmmmm ... heirloom tomatoes.

P.S. That Akoya album is freakin' amazing. Like Fela sped up to 11, some absolutely incredible beats, definitely makes you wish there were more than four real tracks.
