I've been extremely lax. Not in buying music, I've been purchasing quite a bit, actually, from sellers on Discogs and Musicstack, mostly. I've been lax in reporting it here. Before Coronavirus, I managed to find this gem, Fiction,...

Along with Black Sabbath's 1971 album, Master of Reality, this particular record, The Tempations' 1973 errr, masterpiece, Masterpiece, is the very foundation of my life spent as a music collector. When I was, I don't know,...

Just one of those groovy days today, with nothing better to do than hang out, get stoned, and listen to records. And I picked this one up a couple weeks ago, in great condition, for just four bucks!
Which really isn't surprising,...

The other night I was stoned to the bejeezus belt when out of nowhere, "Ah! Leah!" by Donnie Iris and the Cruisers popped into my head, followed by "Hey! I need to own a copy of that!" And it arrived in the mail today.

Yep, I am now eight records into my quest to re-establish myself as a vinyl junkie. I am right on JJ's tail, only a thousand or so more and I'll be running neck and neck with him! On Wednesday, I upgraded my turntable, still a...
