Amazon.com Free Music DL [Old & New]

Thursday, November 1st, 2007

Amazon.com has had free mp3s for a least a few years. I remember discovering they had a “free downloads” section and I was able to find some stuff that interested me. There was even recognizable stuff (I can’t remember all of them, but I do recall seeing Yo La Tengo, popular Christmas tunes, and some [...]

Patriotic, Christmas, and Other Tracks from US Air Force

Wednesday, October 31st, 2007

From my previous post I found “Miserlou” played by the Air Force. I managed to find some others that are pretty interesting.

WFMU and pre-war music

Monday, September 24th, 2007

I’m a sucker for old music. It can be folk. It can be blues. It can be gospel. I’m not too picky, although I can get tired of Billy Murry, acoustic era skits, and unoriginal popular oldies.
WFMU is a diverse radio station that also delivers free podcasts through the internet. Mp3s are available for [...]
