Songs/albums you've been searching for since Napster (but never found)

[evilmegaman]

Okay, so I was looking for this album "betty pickup" by a band called muzzle. which, if you haven't heard might change your life. (I'd probably put the song what a bore in one of my all time favorite songs)


I've been loooking for it since like... 2003. yeah yeah not napster era but shit. this is driving me up the wall. I don't want to have to order it online but I might have to.


listen to free trampoline/what a bore here: http://www.rhapsody.com/muzzle/betty-pickup but aside from a DRM'd crap copy, I want this album. :(

obv you can't link me, so to make this a legit thread, what has been killing you that you can't find for your life?

only problem is if I don't want to buy it online, i'm screwed lol

[fleecy]

i'm stubborn that way, refuse to buy. i have a few songs i've been trying to get for ages, like go-go's worlds away. dreamy song.

[Excrement_Cranium]

The list is too vast to materialize.


Sigh. I do miss Napster.

[fleecy]

i do too! it really was the best :(

[evilmegaman]

Napster WAS amazing, I miss it so :(

Personally I thought Audiogalaxy exceeded Napster, but that might just be me. Anyway, try as I might, I could never find this song on a file sharing network, only ever found it on youtube. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSsJ19sy3JI)

I spent about six months looking for Jefferson Starship's "Switchblade".

1st, you suck k-hawk.


2nd, youtube and imeem are pretty good for dredging up stuff, especially if you know how to dig the files off of the site.

I use a Firefox extension called DownloadHelper, and you could "preview" the mp3s via this methodology. Unfortunately, they are 64kbps and 24000 Hz.

Other than that, you are out of luck, It seems.

It's funny, I read this thread and I thought of this song by a Canadian band in the early 70's. The band was called Lisle and the song, "Shelly Made Me Smile". I never could find it. I only liked it because I had a crush on this girl, Shelly, in my school. I never could find it...until now. This thread made me look, so I googled it and found it.

Check it out (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVKVYNOv8cU)

he's got it.

[fleecy]

tuneage and pitchfork offer some good listening alternatives (no downloads), and a lot of what they offer is hard to find. oh well, at least you can stream it.

[1cooldude]

for the last couple of days I've been listening to Drew's station.:arms:

[fleecy]

i'll have to check that out- is it only airing at certain times of day?
