- I bought two albums from the iTunes Music Store last night. Both are Reverend Horton Heat albums that I didn't own, but neither was really the album I wanted. I bought "It's Martini Time" and "Space Heater" but I really wanted to by "Smoke 'em If You Got 'em". The funny thing is that even RRH's website is sold out of that old album (scroll to the bottom). To me, that's a perfect opportunity for RRH to make a little more money on these older albums without the additional cost and risk of printing them for distribution at their shows or at small local music shops. |
