Rare FM singles in the 50-cent bin....

[GoldDustOrphan]

This is very self-indulgent. I never go into used CD/record stores, but yesterday I sought cover in one during a major rainstorm here in Boston. At the front of the store is a cut-out bin featuring an avalanche of vinyl (12-inch, 45 & standard LP).

Right on top - an album-size (33 rpm) of Think About Me. Side one: Think About Me (remix) 2:42 min. B-Side: Save Me a Place. (Promotional Copy; Not for Sale). Obviously intended for radio, this piece of vinyl has never been played.

Underneath that was a Spanish 45 rpm for Sara. B-side: That's Enough for Me ("Suficiente para mi"). All of credits on the vinyl are in Spanish.

Of course, good things come in threes, so there's also a 45 of The Farmer's Daughter. I didn't even realize it was released as a single from the Live album.

All three are in great condition and were in plastic bags. The price? 50 cents each. Store manager said there's about a dozen FM/Stevie singles tucked away in another box that will end up in the cut-out bin in the next two weeks. He even offered to put them aside for me and asked for my email. Does this happen anymore? Are random people this cool?

I did some quick scans for the hell of it...love the big Stevie/John picture on the back of Think About Me.
