Oh boy, not too awful much to say here. A short special report recording on the way to and from an early (like silly early) excursion to The Vinyl Underground at 7th Heaven for drop 2 of Record Store Day 2021. So, long story short, Record Store Day came about in 2007 when a group of independent record stores got together to promote the sale of vinyl. By then, streaming had overcome CDs for the preferred music format and records were a thing of the past. Personally, I'd converted over to CDs way back when and slowly moved over to mp3s and later streaming for everything also. Then, about 2.5 years ago, my son and I were cleaning up downstairs and he came across my original copy of Dead Kennedys - Frankenchrist. After making sure his fragile young eyes didn't take in the included poster (yep, I have the entire original thing with the order form inside for merch and music from Tentacle Records as well), I found my Sony turntable nearby and we hooked it up. I had like 4 records or so at that point. Today? 298. It's an illness. Anyways, I talk a little bit about some things I'm interested in before going in and then I end up kinda going against my original thoughts and going all in. Now, I am the proud owner of the G Collection (Box set of all studio albums from Gorillaz) and a pretty great Czarface album as well. While I skipped out on the Dee Gees and a couple others I discuss, I'm happy to be one of the 980 folks who scored the entire Gorillaz studio catalog in one buy. Pics of all that's been happening are right here. I do carry on a bit about the latest Dad Snark Review videos I've done too. Check them out if you get a chance. I review a Portable Air Cooler and a USB-C Wireless Lav Mic set.
