Record fair...

Do you recognize this? You buy a cd you like very much and then some time later this cd is rereleased with some extra tracks... Do you buy this cd as well? Or do you just leave the extra tracks for what they are? A difficult question.... ;-)
Last year I was in America and I bought this wonderful cd by Josh Kelley at the local Walmart. Just one week later I saw that it was rereleased with four bonustracks... That was quite a pity. I had the same with the Maroon 5 cd... Both times I did not buy the new version, although I was able to download the Maroon 5 songs.
But today I went to a record fair and there I found the bonuscd that has an acoustic version of that great song Amazing (and also of Smalltown boy) and two new songs! So now I am very happy!!!

It was a great record fair by the way! I bought loads of very cheap cd's, records (though they were not all cheap) and cd-singles. Among others I bought:

Cd's:
Fisherman's woman - Emiliana Torrini
Bloodflowers & Desintegration - The Cure
Garbage - Garbage
Cracked rear view - Hootie & The Blowfish (it had to happen one day... ;-)
Zooropa - U2 (now my collection is complete)
Songs for silverman - Ben Folds
Road apples - The Tragically Hip
Emmerdale - The Cardigans

And also Satellites by Vega 4. I already have that one, but it was only 2 euro's so it will make a great present for someone. It's one of my favorite records...

Lp's:
Here my dear - Marvin Gaye (this one is sooo good!)
Poets heart - Kate Wolf (rather expensive, but amazing singer)
Kiss me kiss me kiss me - The Cure
Crowded House - Crowded House (with one of the most beautiful songs I know: Don't dream it's over)

Cd-singles:
Everything you want - Vertical Horizon (so beautiful)
She's so high - Tal Bachman (love that song!)
Hanging by a moment - Lifehouse
As - George Michael & Mary J Blige
Push - Matchbox Twenty
Bohemian like you - Dandy Warhols
Loser - 3 Doors Down
I'm still here - Johnny Rzeznik (the Goo Goo Dolls singer!)
Closing time - Semisonic (brings me back to Wyoming!)
Back to me - Kathleen Edwards (with a wonderful cover of Tom Petty's A face in the crowd)
Re-Offender - Travis (with 3 new songs!)

Most of these songs have something to do with a very special period in my life. That's why I like to have them as a single.

Well anyway, I will have a lot to listen to the next few months. I really musn't buy more cd's this year...
