Greetings from Quimper Sound! There are going to be lots of new releases in the next couple of weeks - so pay attention! The last couple of weeks we've had all of Wayne Horvitz's work at 30% off - this week we're going to do something a bit different. In addition to the new Pearl Jam going on sale we're going to give $3 off the new Neil Young album (which comes out Monday, May 8th) to everyone who pre-orders and pre-pays for it this week! As always, feedback is much appreciated - keep it coming to: feedback at quimpersound.com - thanks! And now, on with the show . . .
