$5 MP3 Album Deal: Queen ‘The Works’

Posted: 28 Apr 2012 05:55 PM PDT

Queen: The Works

As part of Amazon's monthly $5 MP3 album deal for April 2012, Queen's The Works is on sale for only $5.

Released in 1984 and during what would have to be categorized as their "lean years" in this country, The Works by the British group Queen, remains a mildly unknown yet still pretty decent record in their long history of making music. Coming off the heels of the album Hot Space, which was a commercial flop in America, and ending a stretch of long successes for the band which started in the mid 1970s with A Night at the Opera and peaked with The Game (which spawned the number one smash "Another One Bites the Dust"), The Works finds Queen in an adventurous mode and slightly stripped down [...]

Blu-ray Review: Bambi Diamond Edition

Disney's Bambi Blu-ray

Bambi
2-Disc Diamond Edition Blu-ray/DVD Combo Pack
DVD Packaging | Blu-ray Packaging
Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment
Release date: March 1, 2011
End date: April 30, 2012


This Bambi: Diamond Edition is going back into the Disney Vault on April 30, 2012, so if you're a fan of the film, it's definitely worth grabbing before it's put out of circulation. Once it goes into the Vault, the price on existing stock will shoot up (possibly as high as $70) and no new copies will be made and sold. The Diamond Edition includes both DVD and Blu-ray edition of the film (with a choice of two different packagings) and is packed with bonus features, which I detail here below. If you're a fan of Disney animation, the extras included here will be a real treat.

If your children have already learned about the Circle of Life from The Lion King, there's more harsh life lessons to be learned from Bambi. While the 70-minute Disney animated feature is high quality and beautiful, it's certainly managed to traumatized plenty of youngsters since its release in 1942. The film follows a young deer named Bambi from his birth through his adulthood, and while it's a touching story of life's adversities being overcome by love and the power of friendship, watching Bambi's struggles will make you cry. If you don't cry, well, then you don't have a heart [...]

$5 MP3 Album Deal: Boston

Boston: Boston

As part of Amazon's monthly $5 MP3 Album Deals for April 2012, Boston is on sale for only $5.

Originally released a few weeks after America celebrated its 200th birthday all in the Summer of 1976, eponymous debut album by the band Boston has become one of the more memorable classic rock albums of all time. Every song by this Beantown group has gotten radio play thousands of times, the opening track "More Than A Feeling" spawned would-be and successful guitar heroes all across the continent, it's definitely one of those dividedly "feel good" rock and roll albums of the 1970s [...]
