$9.99 for a new CD release, yes it has happened

I went in Tower today and they had Rodney Crowell's new CD for $9.99. I almost fell over. Too bad the new Carla Bley I wanted was $18.99.

I'll suport my local CD Plus. They carry a good selection.....I check Wal-mart, then buy at the local if it is the same price.....How is the new Rodney Crowell?
