CD Walkabout

picked up some interesting music during my rambles last week (ppl was $10, everything else was $8 or under):

squeeze-uk squeeze (remastered with 2 bonus disc...so nice to find this a couple weeks after i found the regular edition...sigh)
joan armatrading-to the limit (be interesting to see if this flips)
al stewart-beach full of shells
queen-first album (2 cd remaster)
have a nice day volume 23 (picked it up for $5, already sold it for $45)
paul mccartney-give my regards to broad street
andy gibb-greatest
icehouse-man of colors (shockingly this hasn't sold yet)
orleans-still the one (kind of a dud pick up, but meh)
kinks-think visual (i should have gotten the arthur remaster and the japan phobia discs as well)
rainmakers-s/t
pure prairie league-two lane highway
nick lowe-nick the knife (this was 2.95!!!)
tycoon-st
tycoon-opportunity knocks
village people-cruisin'
village people-in the street

  1. Who knew Tycoon even HAD two albums? (I just looked and I see they had a lot more than that.) Where did the biggest scores occur (ie, what self-respecting record store STILL doesn't know about "Have a Nice Day?")

  2. Tycoon had three albums that i know of. only two were released during their (more or less) heyday. first one is kinda meh (although it has "Such a Woman", but the second one is quite good, with some crackling power pop.
    found joan and nick lowe at cheapo (lake street and snelling respectively), the have a nice day at the la crosse cd shop (i looked in the various section as my last check before paying) and the sugar shack in madison had PPL and Paul Mac (the other stores in madison were ok, but i didn't end up buying anything at them)
