Spent part of the afternoon at the local record shop /vintage drum shop, searching mostly for new/used jazz and obscure punk rock on seven-inch vinyl. Found a couple of the latter.
- Drone - Voice of Reason .... from 1991
- Polar Bear Club - Blood Balloon .... from 2013
I know nothing about either record. Both are blind buys. Seven-inch vinyl seems like the ideal format for the punk and post-punk genre. I enjoy it in small doses. I don't know if I could handle larger stacks of records or longer listening experiences.
I have been accumulating a small collection of punk. I laughed at it when it exploded in the late 1970's. I'm ready to give it a chance in my golden years. But don't tell my oldest friends. They might not understand.
It's history to me.
Found nothing of much interest in the jazz bins. I don't think there are many jazz freaks in this town. It's rare to stumble across an out of the ordinary title to take home and I've been on this mission for the past year or two of discovering other jazz directions.
