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.
