Vinyl really does seem to be making a comeback. Shawn: I read Circus magazine almost exclusively back in the day, keep the memories alive eh. http://www.haloscan.com/comments/homercat/3087226137326081389/?src=hsr#1101114 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 11:47:15 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/homercat/3087226137326081389/?src=hsrs#1101114 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/homercat/3087226137326081389/?src=hsrs#1101114 Welcome back brother!

And album covers. I miss 'em, too. I definitely shopped NRM looking at album art first, artist second. And I'll never forget the first time I discovered colored vinyl. GC Murphy's.

I admire them and if that's true, a heartbreaker http://www.haloscan.com/comments/homercat/7683743356191927893/?src=hsr#1101098 Sun, 15 Nov 2009 15:58:28 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/homercat/7683743356191927893/?src=hsrs#1101098 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/homercat/7683743356191927893/?src=hsrs#1101098 re subliminals - check out Mark Mothersbaugh's confessions... otherwise, the emotional overreaction to the "stupid idiots" obscures the fact that the lyric to "don't fear the reaper" does, in fact, in clear language, describe (not advocate) suicide FOR THE FEMALE LEAD (not the audience) and then documents the male lead's resignation when his NOW-EX-lover leaves with her new one and only.

Oh well there's always next year (provided of course I can remember where I store the files a year from now..) Now back to exploring the rest of your site, it looks like lots of interesting stuff here. Thanks for the time & effort of putting it together.

I actually met a fellow who claimed to be one of the EMTs at the scene of the crash in Big League. http://www.haloscan.com/comments/homercat/3237390421312779286/?src=hsr#1101095 Sat, 14 Nov 2009 04:35:07 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/homercat/3237390421312779286/?src=hsrs#1101095 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/homercat/3237390421312779286/?src=hsrs#1101095 Fantastic. Any chance you would re-up "Safety Dance"? http://www.haloscan.com/comments/homercat/1921985711728975907/?src=hsr#1101093 Sat, 14 Nov 2009 02:56:13 +0000 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/homercat/1921985711728975907/?src=hsrs#1101093 http://www.haloscan.com/comments/homercat/1921985711728975907/?src=hsrs#1101093 Excellent choice! Loved this record when it first came out, one of my big High School records. "Man In The Moon" and "Stop It" are also great songs.
