Would you like some Sea with your Cake? Of course you would. Mellow out brody. These guys get the relax mode fully with out boring you. Accoustic and songy. Me likey. Of course all this reminds me of Sea Change Beck's masterpiece and my favorite of all his work. Buy Sea Change then buy Sea and the Cake and then get your Iron & Wine on. It will take your mind off the traffic.

After you put the front graphics over the disc (paper will protect the disc graphics) you're done--no more pesky jewel box.

Buying music can be a sure thing. No more wasted dough on stuff you don't need. You'll need tools though. First is iTunes. Go to the iTunes store and sign up. It is as good as everybody says it is. I'll tell you about bands you may not have heard of or songs you might dig. You can check 'em out there. Then buy the CD on line or at a local independent music store. You want to buy the CD

This is the official site of all things musical that you should be listening to. Stop complaining and start buying and listening. Don't steal music.
