Free Dan Zanes Greatest Hits Album
You read that right. 7 tracks (listed after the jump) available for free downloading via Amazon - all killer, no filler.
I mean, you probably have a lot of them already, but still. (And if you're missing some, some other albums are on sale in MP3 format, too.) The offer's only valid through April 21, though.
See, This Video Is From A Book...
I know, I know, I'm spending a lot of time this week on videos (go now -- vote on TMBG vs. Shana Berry or Mark Kozelek vs. Egg), but thought I'd do something different.
You know, post a YouTube video about a song associated with a book.
It's from Trout Fishing in America, and it's the title track from their book My Name is Chicken Joe. It features 11 songs (track listing after the jump) and the storybook featured in the video below. I like curling up with a book better, but the video gives you a good idea what to expect.
My Name is Chicken Joe is out April 7 on Secret Mountain.
