Record Store Day 2021, Drop #1 Today!

Well, things were almost back to normal this RSD. Last year was really weird, but still had a good time. This year was of course way busier.

Just love the comradery within my local record community! Lots of younger people and more females than I’ve ever seen...which is a good thing.

What’s better than talking about vinyl?!?


My haul from today:


Sarah Jarosz - I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For/my future - 12" Vinyl

Elton John - Regimental Sgt. Zippo - LP

Joni Mitchell - Joni Mitchell Archives Vol. 1 (1963-1967): Highlights - LP

Robert Palmer - Sneaking Sally Through The Alley (180 Gram Emerald Green Audiophile Vinyl/Limited Edition) - LP

Tom Petty - Angel Dream (Songs and Music from the Motion Picture She’s the One) - LP

Status Quo-The Rest Of Status Quo (Purple Vinyl)

Steely Dan - Two Against Nature - 2 x LP

Steely Dan - Everything Must Go - LP

Stillwater - Stillwater Demos EP - LP

Styx - The Same Stardust EP - Vinyl

Tom Tom Club - The Good The Bad And The Funky - LP

UFO - Mother Mary/This Kid’s - 10" Vinyl


(Drop #2 is July 17th)

Unable to make it to Music Millennium or any other Portland shop (I am currently dealing with acute Achilles Tendonitis in my right foot; very painful.), I bought online (from Hi-Voltage Records) the only June RSD title I wanted: I'll Have A.....Bucket Of Brains by The Flamin' Groovies. Eight songs on a 10" disc, recorded at Rockfield Studios in 1972, produced by Dave Edmunds.

The July RSD also includes only one record in which I am interested: The Church With One Bell by John Martyn.

When I got to the store (about two hours late), The Who Face Dances (Abbey Road Mastering) was the only thing that caught my interest. It would've been nice to get a copy of The Replacements - Pleased to Meet Me, but it was all gone. Nonetheless, it was an enjoyable event for a Saturday morning.

Very nice haul! Recently, yours truly was “gifted” about 200 pounds of records. 12” 10” and 45’s. I had no idea there were so many Christmas albums released in mono. As a result, Record Store Day may, unfortunately, be skipped this year. Hopefully there is a Record Store Day in 2022 and not the next outbreak of Covid, SARS, Pig Flu, etc, etc.
