More CD shopping in Oz

Just received the last of another excellent CD shopping trip to hmv.com.au, The Power and The Passion, a collection of tribute covers of Midnight Oil tracks.

As far as I can tell it hasn't been released or even imported in the US yet. It's a mix of bands so you get a variety of interpretations of the Oil's music. You can order it from HMV Australia if interested (As an aside, I applied for the HMV affiliate program but I doubt I'll get accepted, besides I won't be ordering as much with the AUD/USD rate at .7 these days.)

Also picked up on this ordering binge: The WhitlamsTorch the Moon, Delta GoodremInnocent Eyes, and The WaifsUp All Night. These all arrived about a week after I ordered in October. The Power and The Passion was backordered and apparently shipped last week. Still not a bad way to buy CDs. With the exchange rate evening out it's not necessarily cheaper than Amazon however I don't think any of these CDs are available in the US yet.

Well, except for Brooklyn, NY of course.
