LP Lust: SXSW Edition

In Austin, Texas there is a very, very wonderful place. It's a magical place, filled every which way with good music, as far as the eye can see. Locals and visitors alike rave about this place, some have called it the best of its kind in the world. It is legendary, and no stop in Austin is complete without a visit here. Of course, friends, I couldn't leave Austin without a visit to this special place. What am I talking about, you might ask? Waterloo Records, of course!

Waterloo was spectacular. So much new vinyl it was hard to keep myself in check, and the used section was great as well. If only I had had more time to paw through the 25 cent records as much as I would have liked. In any event, I managed to do some damage. Below is what I procured from this fine, fine establishment. Also, the last album listed wasn't purchased at Waterloo, but is the only other album I bought while at SXSW, purchased directly from the most excellent, amazing, you'll-be-hearing-me-foam-at-the-mouth-about-them-soon Ringo Deathstarr.
