| Moving to France Congrats! I too have a similar plan, love France. I’ve worked there for many years, will eventually skip out to Antibes. | |
| How do you know when an LP is a first or early pressing? Discogs usually has all the info you need. The real fun starts when your buying records that Discogs doesn’t know about (yet)! | |
| Apparently new artist don't even know what a melody is and drum machines suck Just because what you consider "real music" is not being served to you on a silver platter, does not mean it's not being made, it just means you might not be looking hard enough. Not just Americana, but there is amazing new music across most genre... | |
