Spacehog - Resident Alien vinyl

mookieblalock

This is being released on cream colored vinyl with pink splatter for Record Store Day for the first time ever on vinyl. I figured there would be some folks here who would want to know.

Oh man, such great news. Love this album.

Wow!  What a blast from the past.  I remember getting this CD from one of my BMG signups because I loved "In The Meantime" and I ended up only liking that and maybe one other song off it. Maybe I need to revisit it.

I think "In The Mean Time" and "Cruel To Be Kind" were the standouts, but there's a lot of other really good stuff on there. But imo their catalog dropped off significantly after. Never dug another song I heard from them :-/

I just re-listened to it and yeah those are the two best songs.  It's not a terrible album but one that I'll maybe revisit occasionally on a streaming service.

Yeah, I remember thinking the same thing. They had one or two good songs on the album.

Got to my local favorite local shop super early today in hopes of snagging a copy since it’s so limited. Glad I got there when I did (3rd in line three hours before they opened), they only got one copy of Resident Alien and I walked out with it!

Sweet! I actually got one off Discogs after Amoeba crashed for $45. Lucky!
