The Gold Box spotlight deal of the day over at Amazon today is a sale on 10 classic albums in MP3 format for only $3.99 each.

The sale selection contains landmark albums by The Beach Boys, Boston, David Bowie, the Clash, Miles Davis, the Doors, Prince, Ramones, Rush, and Van Halen.

Note, this sale is only for today, Friday, March 25, 2011, until midnight PST.

Beach Boys: Pet Sounds
Boston: Boston
David Bowie: The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars
The Clash London Calling
Miles Davis: Kind Of Blue
The Doors: The Doors
Prince: Purple Rain
Ramones: Ramones
Rush: Moving Pictures
Van Halen: Van Halen

I own and have owned all ten albums for many, many years, so I can personally vouch that each one of them is amazing and worth owning. At 4 bucks each, I’d say just grab all of these selections right now. Three of my top 10 favorite bands are on this list [Rush, Van Halen, Ramones], while the other artists are ones I’ve been listening to since I was a kid.

Math time: Typically, MP3 songs sell for $.99 each, which means in order for the $3.99 sale to be worth it for the buyer, there has to be more than four songs on the album worth having. I can tell you with confidence that each of these albums meets this requirement and if you’d like some examples, just leave a comment for me here below in the Comments section, and I will gladly cite these examples.
