Patti Smith is on my turntable.

I have a buddy who's building out his record collection, so I try to think of records to contribute whenever I want to thank him for something. He just used his employee discount to save me a few hundred bucks on a new tortoise enclosure, so I'm shopping again.

I have this one on order, but it won't be out until after my next planned visit, so I'm trying to think of something else I could send in the meantime.

They're great musicians. I cannot watch Corey Wong play. His hand is going to fly off.

I don't what kind of music your friend is into, but I think this is one of the greatest post punk albums ever made.

I've had the second LP in Chicago's greatest hits on the turntable for 3 months and haven't gotten around to listening yet....

I had to listen to it a few times (years ago) before it really clicked. I think it's brilliant.

Who's hornier? Mac Davis or Conway Twitty?

Trick question.

The answer is me.

I just got my buddy a newer pressing of the Superfly soundtrack. Overall the record is pretty good, but there are two or three songs that are all-time favorites (Pusherman and Superfly.)

The interesting thing about this pressing is it's 12" but 45rpm, so there are only two songs (about ten minutes of audio) per side.

It's pretty generic mid-80s pop country. John Schneider has a good singing voice, but there were more than a few songs in which he choked on high notes. You can almost hear Keith Whitley, George Strait, or Vince Gill singing most of the songs on there, almost as though they just gave John Schneider a record full of B-sides or cast-offs from other artists.

I'm glad I was able to find this record on vinyl, don't get me wrong, but the only unique thing about it is that it was sung by Bo Duke.
