Blue Note has become one of the industry leaders in vinyl. If you're into jazz, or interested in making your first foray into this wonderful art form, there's no better place to get started than with these two classics: Art Blakely's MOANIN' and Hank Mobley's SOUL STATION. If jazz ain't your scene, yet perhaps Ariana Grande's POSITIONS or the BACK TO THE FUTURE soundtrack will have you titillated.

In the News:  The Record Store Day list is out for June 12th and July 17th. The weird thing is that we may be most excited for the cassette box set of the first five Motley Crue albums. Are you ready for concerts to come back? Guns 'N Roses, Roger Waters, and Sammy Hagar are among the first to reboot. It's time to (safely) get busy living. 

Coming Soon:  Forget about the Walmart exclusive from Metallica (there's nothing less rock and roll than Walmart exclusive, right), it's time for the true kings of hard rock to show how Lars and the boys how it's done. Pantera is releasing five of their classic albums on vinyl as indie store exclusives on April 23. COWBOYS FROM HELL and VULGAR DISPLAY OF POWER are the two headliners. Awesome.
