Please use this search engine as a guide as we cannot always  guarantee the availability or price of a CD you may turn up from one of SPIN's hundreds of pages.

We at SPIN CD's can get our hands on virtually any CD that you want...of course we have our specialty areas, The DEAD, Psychedelia, New Country and any reissues however obscure, we have what you might call a MOJO profile. If you've read a review in Mojo, Uncut or the like, we'll have it in stock. We also trawl around the smaller labels and some 'Internet Only' outfits to stock hard-to get releases.  Everything that appears on this page is archived either below the logo at the top, or on the links down this side of the page. Thanks for visiting and thanks for your custom.

Haunting moments of introspection are enveloped in clouds of bluesy guitar notes, then swept away by great electric gales; drones rumble and shimmer in the aftermath. The Expanding Sea is a tremendous work by an ensemble that is creating a genre-defying yet archetypically American music" 3 CDs £36.99It was a Mafeking-like moment for the lads in SPIN when 'Dicks Picks 28' and the 'View From The Vault IV' sets finally turned up today.
