Hello,

Hope everyone had a happy January 20th! We sure did. Had a pizza party and everything. True story: I was at Fresh Market buying vegetables and the check out clerk asks me, "Are you having a good inauguration day?" I replied, "Sure am." And she takes my money, cashes me out, and say "Well, here's your CHANGE..." while handing me $1.30. What made it funny was how long she drew out the word "change". A little overboard for what should have been subtle. Also she had a McCain pin on. Weird...

Let's talk vinyl. 1.88 million vinyl records were sold last year, more than any other year in the history of SoundScan. Two out of every three vinyl records were sold at independent record stores. We've all seen vinyl sales steadily increase over the years as younger and younger crowds jump on new vinyl releases. So here's a list of vinyl releases we think everyone should carry. (in no particular order)
