re: It’s Record Store Day, what are some of your favorite memories at your local record store?

Posted by eph4v29 on 4/25/24 at 8:59 pm

Not a record store, but I bought my very first record at a Morgan & Lindsey dime store in Alexandria; a 45 of “Get Back” that I still have. Later, New Generation and Record Club of America. Glad to see so many vintage vinyl stores thriving again. ...

I always have a tiny Victorinox Classic with me - no good in a gang fight or skinning a moose, but I use the scissors and screwdriver as much as the blade. I’m the hero at Christmas for being able to open all the torture devices used to package toys nowadays. Downsides: ridicule from the pock...

Raspberries “Fresh” is still one of my all-time favorites. Look up their live performance on Pop Art Live; it’s on Spotify and (I think) YouTube. Really good versions of their best songs and even some fine Beatles covers. And if you’ve just been dumped: Never Gonna Fall In Love Again should...

I must have missed something - when did the “Slinger” thing start? I knew Steve in high school, watched him play QB as a fellow student at LSU, followed his career through all the various stops until he came back here - never heard anyone call him “Slinger” until just a few years ago. I know he c...

If “greatest” means most impactful, then it’s likely the 1958 NFL championship game, Colts & John Unitas beating the Giants in sudden death. Not just a great game in itself, but the telecast put the NFL on the map and led directly to the cultural phenomenon it is today. ...
