I got a heads up in Hmv today that a 40% off Criterion sale starts within the next week.

It's also interesting that my local store has expanded its cd racks by about 25% recently, although they're not stocking the cd version of LA is my Lady at HMV, for some reason.
There's a few Criterion releases I might pick up during the sale. And I'm really enjoying the new release of L.A. Is My Lady. It sounds quite incredible. And it's great to see footage from Portrait of an Album officially uploaded to YouTube, along with the L.A. Is My Lady music video. This said, it would have been good to see the documentary paired with the album and perhaps even remastered on Blu-ray. The DVD is fine, but it could look so much better, and it would have made sense being released with the album.

I've only heard it on Spotify so far, but will pick it up at some point between now and Christmas. I know someone is buying me the Columbia Horror blu ray box for Christmas, so that's one thing I don't have to buy in the coming months, but it's going to get expensive with the releases piling up.


Accused of being "a nerd in his 20s." I wish.

A little good news, I think, as this event at the bfi suggests that there will be a bbc ghost story this Christmas- Woman of Stone based on a story by Edith Nesbitt.
