Music Continued, AKA G's Pik Vol. 1

While I have a few minutes, I'll continue with my last post.  I went many a year cursing the state of the music industry, complaining that nothing good was being created.  I still feel that there's entirely too much muck out there.  But I have found some awesome music.  
Blah & I were on one of our outings when I came across this at the 'Buy: 
Isn't it pretty?  I thought so, and if you know me at all you'll know I was in love with just the cover.  I whipped out my phone and took a picture so I could dig it up online and have a listen.  I read the track list and nothing too horrible jumped out at me.  I thought I might have a winner.  Well, I did.  It was The Frames and the album is The Cost.  And it rocks.
Here is album # 2 I saw some time ago:
 Again, if you know anything about me you'll understand I fell immediately in love with the cover.  This time we were at The 'Noble where you can actually listen to stuff before you buy it, so I did and I did.  It has one of the most amazing songs on it, Astair. It's not the magic of The Frames or Alexi, but it's not bad.  

So, the moral of the story is, you can judge a book by it's cover, at least if you're like me and love green and love the earth.
