Cat Power outsold James Blunt almost 2 to 1. Thanks to NPR we have impressive sales on CP GH , as well as Rosanne Cash, both of which have continued to sell this week...The Deathcab/Postal Service train continues to roll, but is alternative the new mainstream? Is it alternative at all? It doesn't matter to me at all. As long as it sounds good...Slightly Stoopid opened for G-Love last week at the Big Easy, and it seemed like a good portion of the people buying tickets from us were going to see them, and they show up a couple of times on this chart. What is the deal with that band? Are they "good" or something?...I would be lying if I told you that it made me unhappy to see My Morning Jacket in the top 5. Z continues to satisfy with repeated listenings. I wish that Brandi Carlile's cd was as memorable as the EP "Live From Neumo's" released yesterday, but that is just a sign that we have an artist who will grow on our hands. Iwishidabeenthere.
