Went to the Pearl Street mall in Boulder with my daughter the other day. She was in for a Holiday visit from Virgina Beach and she's completely into the Positive Punk scene. So we're strolling along and we get to Barts (a local favorite for vinyl and alternative music). We went straight upstairs where we ended up browsing for about an hour together. She ended up getting the Red Housepainters and I ended up with Sigur Ros "Hoppipokla", Ahmed Abdul-Malik "Sounds of Africa" and Patricia Barber "A Fortnight in France" - all on new sealed vinyl.
How cool is it that I can get new alternative music, newer jazz (the Patricia Barber was released about 3 years ago) and great classic jazz that is difficult to find on CD in the same store?
The "Sounds of Africa" LP is something I'd heard at the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest, and had been searching for ever since to no avail. To stumble upon it on new vinyl was GREAT. It is also a terriffic sounding LP to boot, quite a wonderful surprize. Did I mention I love vinyl! Moves me to create a new avitar.
