Today, after a bit of a delay, he announced the release of Alone III, which comes with The Pinkerton Diaries, a 237-page book that collects his "journals, emails, letters, photos, and school papers" from the Pinkerton era. The CD/book package, available at Cuomo's site, provides "an intimate look into the writing and recordings of Rivers Cuomo from 1994-1997."
Anyone else considering getting this?
As much as I love Pinkerton (it's my favorite album of all time), $75 is a heck of a lot of money, especially just for a CD and booklet. Especially since finances in my family are a bit tight this Holiday season.
You stated (it's my favorite album of all time), Applerill.
IMO it would be worth the money for you then would it not?
I've spent rather insane amounts of $ on Beatles items ๐คฃ
But they are treasures to me ๐
.
I guess you have a point there.
I had a similar dilemma a few years back with Little Earthquakes and Blue Album vinyls. They costed $30 each, but while they were my favorite albums ever at the time, I never made the jump to do that, mostly because I haven't bothered to set my turntable up in years.
Had to bump this.Just to let those who only wanted to hear the songs and not pay such an insane amount.The whole album has been uploaded on to youtube.

Pinkerton DIARIES? Wow, that must be a tempting item, I agree. Especially for the BIG Pinkerton fans. I think I should listen to it someday. I should listen to a LOT of albums that I haven't yet listened to.
