Pt. 1 - A Surprisingly Great Take in Pinnellas County, FL
While vacationing at the beach with my family, visited both Sound Exchange and the co-located Mustang/Wagon Wheel Flea Market in Pinnellas County, FL. Purchased a good number of CDs from Sound Exchange (nos. 1 through 6), and would have bought more if I had brought more money. The rest I picked up first at the outdoor Mustang Flea Market, and then from the indoor Wagon Wheel Flea Market. A good idea to check these out if ever in the Tampa area... |
| 1 |  | Brant Bjork
Punk Rock Guilt
Purchased new for $11.99 - a steal for such a rare Desert Rock gem! |
| 2 |  | Greenleaf
Nest of Vipers
Also purchased new for $8.99 - an incredible stoner rock album out of Sweden. |
| 3 |  | My Sleeping Karma
Moksha
After hearing Satya, couldn't wait to hear this one. |
| 4 |  | Kylesa
Exhausting Fire
Starting to get into this band's later albums...I've missed out. Sound Exchange had the UK version of this CD for $3.99 |
| 5 |  | Valley of the Sun
Electric Talons of the Thunderhawk
See my prior list "Ohio Has Some Metal Chops". Add this stoner rock band from Cincinnati, OH to the list! Sound Exchange had this for a whopping $2.99. |
| 6 |  | Karma To Burn
Karma to Burn
Unbelievably picked this up from Sound Exchange for $0.99. I dig some Karma To Burn and about did a flip in the store when I saw it... |
| 7 |  | Dream Theater
Images and Words
Never had this one. Found it for a whopping $0.33 at the Mustang Flea Market. A great listen, as expected. |
| 8 |  | Dream Theater
Live at Budokan
The three CD set also $0.33 at the Mustang Flea Market...unbelievable! |
| 9 |  | Sneaker Pimps
Becoming X
The final "3 for $1" purchase. Really dig the first track with a harder edge, but just an OK album across the board. |
| 10 |  | Anberlin
Blueprints for City Friendships
All three first albums, including Cities which is awesome, for $1 at the Mustang Flea Market. |
| 11 |  | King's X
Ear Candy
Had never heard much King's X or this album before, an interesting listen. Not sure where to classify this band. A good $1 buy. |
| 12 |  | Operator
Soulcrusher
This is better than most give it credit for....and yes, the vocalist sounds like Chris Cornell. May could do without some of the slow tracks. Happy with this $1 buy. |
| 13 |  | MxPx
Before Everything & After
Last CD I bought at the Mustang Flea Market...yes for $1. A bit of a disappointment...was looking for something more similar to their earlier albums. |
| 14 |  | The Prodigy
Music for the Jilted Generation
Picked this up for $2 in the Wagon Wheel Flea Market. A good transitional album between Experience, their first album, and Fat of the Land (my fav of the three) |
| 15 |  | Green Day
American Idiot
Not a huge Green Day fan. But for some reason, I dig the concept and message behind this album. Picked up for $1. |
| 16 |  | Live
Birds Of Pray
For $1, decided to pick this up. It's an OK album...nothing to write home about. Came with a live DVD that should be cool. |
| 17 |  | Course of Empire
Initiation
An industrial/post-punk band from the early 1990's. Hadn't heard this album before, but had heard that it was good. An interesting listen, but a bit dated. My last $1 buy at the Wagoon Wheel Flea Market |
