Voices Carry - Til Tuesday

Voices Carry - Til Tuesday
Label: Epic Records

While it may be an exaggeration to say that Til Tuesday "burst on the scene" in 1985, it is safe to say they made an impact with this record. The title song, "Voices Carry" made the charts and they were able to get a opening slot on a few Tom Petty shows for his "Pack Up the Plantation" tour. Til Tuesday opened for TP at Poplar Creek in suburban Hoffman Estates, were you there? Quite a splash for Aimee Mann as well who went on to several acclaimed solo records after Til Tuesday. This record has the original inner sleeve, plays great, and would make a nice addition to your collection. We ship in sturdy records only boxes and take care of all the shipping details.

Pretenders II - The Pretenders
Label: Sire

No sophomore slump here with the second Pretenders record. Includes Message of Love, The Adultress, Boys Get Spanked, and other hot tunes. Sadly, this would be the last record with the original line-up as drug use would take the lives of James Honeymoon-Scott and Pete Farndon. The original release date was August 15th, 1981. This is a nice preowned copy and the photo is a stock photo from the internets. This copy looks just as nice and plays well without much surface noise.

More Songs About Love & Hate - The Godfathers

More Songs About Love & Hate - The Godfathers
Label: Epic

The Godfathers were popular with college radio ("college radio" was just another term for "alternative music" before it became a marketing tool for music, or as some would say, "Oh, you listen to that 'weird' music) in the late 80's and early 90's. This was the follow-up to "Birth School Work Death" and released in 1989. It may be worth it just for "Walking Talking Johnny Cash Blues". This is the US release and the cover is as shown. On a sidenote, the UK cover has a photo of Liz Taylor and Richard Burton.

Every Picture Tells A Story - Rod Stewart

Every Picture Tells A Story - Rod Stewart
Label: Mercury Records

By now Rod Stewart has had a 30+ year solo career, but this was his solo debut after leaving The Faces. Includes Maggie Mae, Every Picture Tells A Story, That's All Right Mama, Mandolin Wind, Tomorrow Is Such A Long Time, and the Tim Hardin cover of Reason to Believe. One time in the late 1980's or early 90's there was a commercial where Rod morphed from a jukebox into a full-size Rod as he was singing the line "Oh my dear, I gotta get outta here..." One of the better debuts of all time and there seems to be two Rod Stewart fan bases... the Faces and early solo Rod, which we will call the Cool Rod, then there was the post-D'ya Think I'm Sexy Rod, which we will call the not-as-cool-Rod. Whichever, neither fan base is wrong, right? We have plenty of other Rod Stewart records in the shop.

Label: ATCO Records

A well-kept gently used copy of 60's giants, Buffalo Springfield, a band which would launch the careers of Stephen Sills, Jim Messina, and Neil Young.

Heart Like A Wheel - Linda Ronstadt

Label: Capital Records

Truly one of the greats of all time, Linda Ronstadt. This 1974 release is one of her finest and she is one of the few people in all the world who could make a cover version of a song better than the original. Included on this release are great covers of You're  No Good, When Will I Be Loved, Little Feat's Willin', and the Anna McGarrigle-penned track Heart Like A Wheel. An A-list of musicians join her on this release, with the likes of these artists; Clydie King, Andrew Gold, JD Souther, David Lindley, Russ Kunkel, Jimmy Fadden, Don Henley, Peter Asher, and others. Peter Asher produced this record, he of Peter and Gordon fame, who was also the brother of Jane Asher - who once had a boyfriend in the 1960's named Paul McCartney.

Somewhere Over China - Jimmy Buffett

Label: MCA Records

Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefer Band returned to the beach or the Margaritaville for this 1981 release, "Somewhere Over China". This release parrots some of his earlier work and includes Where's the Party, Lip Service, I Heard I Was In Town, Somewhere Over China, and Steamer, which this record is not, though YMMVYankee third baseman great Graig Nettles gets a thank you nod in the back jacket liner notes, which is pretty cool. Jimmy is in the sports nerd and music nerd venn diagram, he sang the anthem before one of the 1984 NLCS games at Wrigley Field between the Cubs and Padres. He made mention of singer/songwriter and Cubs fan, Steve Goodman (composer of Go Cubs Go, City of New Orleans, Dying Cubs Fan Last Request, Lincoln Park Pirates, and was an embarrassment of riches as a songwriter), who had passed, sadly, in September of 1984.

We don't know what kind of knobs he's turning these days though...

Marshall Crenshaw - Marshall Crenshaw

Marshall Crenshaw - Marshall Crenshaw
Label: Warner Brothers

Tap Root Manuscript - Neil Diamond

Tap Root Manuscript - Neil Diamond
Label: Universal City Records
Admittedly, we have our share of Neil Diamond records in our dollar bins. Come and buy a few! This record, however, belongs nowhere near the dollar bins. In 1970 Neil Diamond incorporated World Musicians at least ten years before the likes of Peter Gabriel and Paul Simon began using them on their records. Includes the classic "Cracklin' Rose" (Give the acoustic guitar on this another listen, it's pretty magical), a cover of "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother", and side two ends with the African Suite. If you are looking for the hits, look for a Diamond "Best Of" compilation, but if you are looking for a complete album, we suggest "Tap Root Manuscript".This is an original release, we ship with a 2mil poly sleeve, the record plays fantastic, it has the original booklet, and the sleeve has just some minor natural wear. Do this.

Living In the USA - Linda Ronstadt

Living In the USA - Linda Ronstadt
Label: Asylum Records
In 1978 there were not too many people ridin' as high on the pop charts as Linda Ronstadt. Long gone were the days with the Stone Pony's, now she is a full-fledged star! On this record she comes up with brilliant covers that include Chuck Berry, Warren Zevon, Elvis Presley, and Elvis Costello. How flattered must a young Costello felt to have his less than a year old song, "Alison" being covered by someone like Ronstadt? A nice find for a reasonable price. The record and jacket are in great condition. Why look through garage sales salvages and thrift stores for ill-kept records?
