I found this vinyl treasure at Bop Street Records (thanks Sam and Catherine for the gift card!) and I’ve been in heaven all afternoon. Wings Over America, 1976. The lights are low, and the bass is heavy, and it’s a 3 disc set.
Heaven.
Since you’re not here with me listening to this record, here’s a video, it’s not the same, but it’s still pretty rad:
(however, Denny Laine’s vocal mimicry at :51 seconds is inexplicable and inexcusable. Stay away from cocaine.)
Enjoy!

These are some of Phil’s records:
Phil (our cellist) couldn’t find his record player, but he promised me next time I came over he’d have it dug out and I could listen to some vinyl. I think I’ll start with the Everly Brothers. Then what?
In anticipation,

I spent part of my afternoon flipping through bins of vinyl treasure at Bop Street Records in Ballard. I decided to put together a vinyl record survival pack, a little bit of Stevie Wonder, some live Ike and Tina Turner, Gordon Lightfoot greatest hits, The Temptations, and live Crosby Stills Nash and Young.
Come on over and have a listen.
