The Box Tops – The Letter/Neon Rainbow
I almost skipped this one. Why? Well, it was out of order in my collection, and it’s a record I may not have physically played since, oh, say, 1980. It’s a record that is...

Border Radio (Original Soundtrack Recording)
I’m a bit unclear on how I found, and decided to buy, the soundtrack to a movie I never saw. Maybe because I was a Blasters fan, and this had Dave Alvin all over...
Booker T. & the MG’s – The Best of Booker T. & the MG’s

Fleetwood Mac & Others — Blues Jam in Chicago
Another new record picked up during a record store crawl this past February, 2020, when going places and being with other people was still a thing. And another new record that gives me a...
