Amazon's 50 Albums for $5 [June Edition]: How Much You Should AT LEAST Be Spending

Posted on Tuesday, June 9, 2009 at 12:25PM by Registered Commenter[kibbe] in , , , , | CommentsPost a Comment

Amazon MP3 just tweeted about their sweet monthly deal where they offer 50 albums for $5. I personally don't have $250 a month to spend on records to try out just from Amazon, so here's some records I've heard/I own that I enjoy to start off with. Don't worry, I made sure to rank them in order of "must haves" to "if you've got the extra $5 lying around".

So how much do I think you should be spending at the very least?

Grand total: $55.

Below are 11 rad records that are DEFINITELY worth $5.

Caught In The Trees Caught In The Trees by Damien Jurado

Other Lives Other Lives by Other Lives

The Death of Adam [Explicit] The Death of Adam [Explicit] by 88-Keys

Bromst Bromst by Dan Deacon

The Meadowlands The Meadowlands by The Wrens
