Muspy.com - Follow Your Favorite Artists

I used to be mad about Elvis Costello. I tracked down and bought every single CD he put out over a long stretch of time – his classics like Armed Forces and My Aim Is True, and his later-day releases such as Brutal Youth and his superlative Burt Bacharach collection Painted From Memory. Then my interest somehow waned, not because I liked him less, but simply because I had already purchased is full oeuvre and there was nothing left for me to discover.

Then the other day I was shopping and found out he had released a new album of original compositions. I later found out it had been released a long time back, and I hadn’t even noticed. And I would have loved to buy it the very same day it came out.

If something like this ever happened to you, then you (like me) will probably find an online endeavor like Muspy alluring. In principle, Muspy is a web based service that will keep you posted on album releases by artists you are keen on.
