a descent into the maelstrom of american consumerism

I haven't even begun to relish Unplugged and No Quarter, which I got from one of BMG's recurring discount_with_no_shipping_and_handling deals, when they popped me another deal, with a higher discount (which meant that I could have got these CDs cheaper, had I waited... but that's another sequitur). Sure enough, it didn't take me too much time to give in. Overall, it was a great deal: Shaft, the annniversary double-pack issue of Superfly, and the anniversary double-CD edition of Deep Purple's Machine Head.
