Surprised to find Lindsey stuff at a record store!

[PenguinHead]

Though now I buy much of my music at online sites such as Amazon, I get most gratification from hunting for stuff at at cool record stores. Granted, record stores are sadly a rare commodity, but the experience and the possiblities are more exciting.

Yesterday I went to Newbury Comics with no particular idea of what I might buy. I spotted a few bins that had vinyl records. Flipping through them I was surprised to find Lindsey's Gift of Screws album on high-grade vinyl! After brief consideration I had to claim it for $14. It also included the CD, which was a nice touch.

Then, checking out the magazines, I saw The Doors on the cover of UNCUT, a Euro mag that I ocassionally buy. It's not cheap - $10 - but it always comes with a compilation CD. (Over the years I've amassed a large collection of them, but never listen to them; it's all obscure european bands/singers that I have zero interest in).

I bought the magazine and was suprised to find a 3 page article about Lindsey Buckingham! It includes a nice overview of all of his solo work.
When I walked into the store I had no idea I'd walk out with a double dose of Lindsey.

Now I'm just waiting for his new album to arrive in the mail.
