Skid Row - Slave to the Grind

Didn’t find any RSD albums today, but picked these up because who can leave a record store empty handed. I got The Who to replace my beat up copy from the early 80s. I played that record out. The Lynyrd Skynyrd thread inspired me to get this one. I realized I didn’t have any in my collection. The Cure and Count Five - I just wanted.

Count Five in the way-back machine!  Very cool.  Haven't seen that album in any form in forever- nice!

Yeah. One of the early garage bands. The one I got was a special edition on white vinyl. Someone had just sold the store several garage band albums - Shadows of Knight, The Pretty Things, early Yardbirds, the Standells, and a few other bands I was less familiar with. I should have bought them all.

I tried for this all day yesterday. Something tells me all of the copies didn’t make it from the distributor to the shelves. I’m gonna sit and wait and hope more turn up later.

my gord downie collection is almost complete. got all of his solo records just now, save for Secret Path, which I bought when it came out. now just need the record he did with the Sadies (which was sold out at the time i ordered these). 

FFS. after i had thought i had placed this order, i didn't receive any email confirmation or anything. so i contacted the website folks, and they said they had no orders under my cell number i provided them.

today i got my second box of all of these records. now i remember....when i had placed my first order, it had auto-completed with my old cell number, which changed this summer. i didin't realize it when placing the order. so when they told me they had no record of my order, i placed it again. 

now i have two of almost every gord downie vinyl. SMFH

Oh no way!!! That sucks but is kinda funny 😆😆😆

Not again...I think that may have happened with brandie c release too. 16,000. Maybe a new sales tactic.

i looked at the packing slips today. i had actually used my new cell number both times....just my old area code on the first one. in fairness, the person that i was emailing said they had nothing under my cell number nor my name. so they are kinda culpable in this. i'm going to ask if there's anything that can be done. i realize this is mostly my fault, but if she had actually looked for my name, she would have found it.

Just preordered the new Blue Note Classic Series of Lee Morgan's Sidewinder. Looks to be another great reissue campaign from Blue Note for next year and the Tone Poet series just keeps on coming. They're really on a roll. This one seems to contain more "familiar" titles but if the quality is as consistent as the Tone Poet series then they should have no problem selling tons of them.

I'm amazed and delighted at the resurgence of interest in great jazz!  Looks like another great one you have coming there!

Yeah I agree. Thanks for the heads up on the new series. It's nice that they have the schedule out there.

Probably one of the most played albums at dinner or cocktail parties. Great music in the background or the forefront.

It feels like an episode of Mad Men
