The Great Crusades on iTunes

[Chad Wilkens]

I was totally surprised by this, but The Great Crusades are now on the iTunes Music Store. Granted, it's just their first album (First Spilled Drink of the Evening), but it's a start, and it means ordering one less CD from Europe.

...eventhough it's one of their first albums, it's the perfet album to test. I think out of all of them, this is the one to turn fans onto them. Smart. Good searching, Chad.

The First Spilled Drink of the Evening is available because it's distributed in the U.S. by Parasol/Mud Records (based in Champaign-Urbana, IL). Glitterhouse Records (in good ol' Deutschland) distributes the European versions of Damaged Goods, Never Go Home and Welcome to the Hiawatha Inn. I hope they get on board with iTunes once it becomes more prevalent in Europe because that would save everybody here international shipping costs. (God forbid an American label actually do their job with discovering and distributing great music.)

By the way, while it's "fun" to download First Spilled Drink... on iTunes, you can get it even cheaper at the Parasol website. Here's the link, lazybones:
