LP Lust: The Dammit Spring Where Are You? Edition

Here in the lovely Washington, DC metro area, it looks like Spring. Greenery is getting greener. Squirrels are racing along digging up their buried nibbles, and birds have started to sing/chirp/squawk at all hours of the day. But damned if it’s not still well below the temperatures that should go along with such activity (for the most part). What does this have to do with my LP lustage? Well, probably nothing. I’m just impatient for Spring, and my weather vexation is spilling over. Sorry lambs.

In any event, yours truly has been buying some vinyl. Some bought here, some bought there (Baltimore, Ashland, Richmond). Here a record, there a record, everywhere a record record. As you’ll see, there’s all sorts of goodies lurking in the shops. So get out there and support your local record emporium.

LP Lust: Hello Stranger Edition

Good gosh almighty.

It's been quite some time since I last posted about my record-buying exploits. Entirely too long, methinks. As you probably might have thought, I've been stockpiling quite a nice little new stash, though I have yet to find a place in the DC environs with the wealth of killer $1 records I was fortunate enough (or unfortunate enough, if you ask my bank account) to have close at hand when I lived in Richmond. These records have come from all sorts of places: proper record stores, thrift stores, antique stores, gigs...all over the dang place.

Amusingly enough, the more I write about records, the more I want to go buy even more. Curses. But here's what I've brought home with me over the past few months.

*Darker My Love - Alive As You Are
*Nancy Sinatra - Nancy In London
*Merle Haggard - Okie From Muskogee
*Loretta Lynn & Conway Twitty - Lead Me On
*Liturgy - Renihilation
*Them - The Story Of Them
*The Velvet Underground - Loaded
*Neil Young & Crazy Horse - Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere
*Blondie - Eat To The Beat
*The Hollies - Words And Music By Bob Dylan
*The Byrds - Dr. Byrds & Mr. Hyde
*Gary Numan - Telekon
*Leon Russell - Stop All That Jazz
*A Place To Bury Strangers - A Place To Bury Strangers
*Spacemen 3 - The Perfect Prescription
*The Black Angels - Phosphene Dream
*Phil Spector - Echoes Of The 60s
