THE LEGAL DIVA'S VINYL HAUL
My Lady went vinyl shopping. She's amazing. This is what she got:
Stadium Arcadium - Red Hot Chili Peppers
This unbelievable vinyl package of a well loved and oft blogged about record consists of 4 discs - eight sides of the most fantastic Rock music to be released since the turn of the millennium.......and then some. Frusciante is a genius, and a Rock Star, two things lacking in modern music. The choice to issue 4 discs (4 180 gram vinyl discs) says a lot about the respect that the Chilis have for music, and their fans. You will not be able to hear this album in any superior medium or format. It is simply the best sounding release, uh........ever. Really. The packaging is beautiful and of the highest quality. I simply can't go too far in hurling superlatives at this release. I love it. I'm in awe of it. Everyone should buy it.
Like a Virgin - Madonna
All the Great Hits - Diana Ross
The Best Of - Dinah Washington
First Take - Roberta Flack
Roberta Flack and Donnie Hathaway - Roberta Flack and Donnie Hathaway

nice haul
re: 180 gram
the last two records i got on vinyl, Ben Kweller's Changing Horses and the new self titled Wilco record, both came on 180 grams
seems like that's what the new standard is

I should! I got my schoolin' on all musical Fabulousity from you, Papa! Make note: The First Take - Roberta Flack is sublime. I can't wait to break out the Millie Jackson on everyone!!! I'm not sure everyone's ready for Ms. Jackson! By the by, I know this will disappoint everyone, but the duplicate 7 and the Ragged Tiger - Duran Duran, has found a great new home!
