Past Tense is a very cool blog that has lotsa classic rock downloads from Rapidshare.This week they have stuff from the Golden Earrings, Lovin Spoonful, the Move , Joe Cocker , and one I have been looking for for years: The Idle Race "Birthday Party" LP with Jeff Lynne of the Move, ELO, and the Traveling Wilburys. If you like early Beatlish Brit-pop with a touch of psychedelia this is for you.

I'm of a mixed mind about this site. A lot of what's posted is commercially available (What's Shakin', Gift From A Flower To A Garden, The Monkees), and arguments about whether the artists see their proper royalties or not, that's sketchy enough that they could be legally sued and shut down.
Which would be a shame, because there are a lot of gems here that should be more widely available but are not on CD. Personally, I've been looking for a proper release of Shazam! for many years.
And by the way, I've had the Idle Race record all this time... all ya hadda do was ask!
And damn! The have Silver Apples!
