Whoever owned this before me wrote "Bumpers" in black felt pen on the front of the album, on the back cover, and on both sides of the record itself. So yeah, it was a pain in the ass trying to figure out how to remove most of the ink. I was pretty proud of myself, in that I was able to make it hardly visible on the front and back of the jacket. I had a defaced Wishbone Ash album, I applied my newfound knowledge and proceeded to nearly ruin the cover. Anyway, I dropped the dollar because I wanted to get "Cruel to Be Kind," a song I knew from back in the day, and if there was more than one good song it was all bonus. After all, it's not like I had a lot of his stuff. Although I was super close to picking up Rockpile's Seconds of Pleasure when it came out. My only other point of reference was Party of One back in 1990 because I really liked "All Men Are Liars," which still cracks me up, and that's the truth. Oddly enough, the guys he'd later...
A place where I blather on about music, vinyl, memories, nostalgia, things I miss, things I'm excited about, or stuff I just found and want to share. I could also be deliberately trying to waste your time. I generally don't know what I'm talking about, but sometimes I do. This is mostly a stream-of-consciousness brain dump, a reaction video without the images. Mostly, I'm just rambling. It's meanderambling. #oldenoughtoforget #oldenoughtoforget
