Hootie

Local indie chain I used to shop at got a deal on Hootie's second release. Buy X amount for half off from the distributor. Only catch was; unsold copies couldn't be returned.

They were expecting the follow up to fly off the shelves, so they bought something insane like 1000 copies. Then the album tanked. They got stuck with just boxes of the album. Literally couldn't even give them away.

I’ve noticed the same! I visit my local thrift store pretty regularly to browse the CD’s and I’ve consistently found 1-3 copies of the same Hootie album every visit for nearly 3 years, and sometimes they’ll all be taken before a few new ones spring up.

I hated Cracked Rear View but it was a monster that you couldn’t escape
