There is A LOT of this stuff on iTunes. I've been surprised by some of the groups and songs Apple's been able to secure for sale. Section 25 I figured to be an obscure band that no one outside of me and maybe a dozen other people had ever heard of. But Apple seems to believe they'll generate business. The same with some others. So I'd wholly recommend the iTunes Music Store as one place to hunt down older tunes you've since gotten detached from. (Of course Amoeba Records and Bleecker Bob's are also good sources.)

Pretty good, although I was pissed off after trying to track down EBN-OZN's AEIOU and Sometimes Y and coming up snake eyes.

has probably more to do with LTM (http://www.ltmrecordings.com/) their label, doing great work + making sure that their songs are available (either digital via itunes + on cd as well) - but of course a good thing to see all those on itunes as well - way better than people having to buy dodgy cdr copies via e*ay...
