One suggestion from the list is 'The Head And The Heart' album, I saw these guys open up for Iron & Wine a couple weeks ago and they were really good. Tight musicianship and great harmonizing. Just thought I'd mention it.

Re: Amazon MP3 DOTD Thread (July-Aug)

I mentioned it in the previous Amazon thread, but there are currently a number of $5 albums not on the list of 100, although there's no telling how long they will stay $5. Some of the ones I have come across:

Barton Hollow - The Civil Wars
I Am Very Far - Okkervil River
Picaresque - The Decemberists
Castaways and Cutouts - The Decemberists
Her Majesty The Decemberists - The Decemberists

And an oddball $4.59 price, since it was one of the June $5 albums:

Raven In The Grave - The Raveonettes

And in case you didn't hear: All of Amazon's paid cloud services (even if you got the upgrade by buying a cheap album) now includes unlimited music (mp3 & m4a format). Also, ALL of your past Amazon purchases (even pre-Cloud) will not count against your total storage space.

Jesus Christ, $7 for an MP3 soundtrack album of incidental music is considered the Deal of the Day? Thanks for nothing, Amazon.
