Can't believe it's been 20 years since Train's DROPS OF JUPITER was released. No, MTV wasn't playing music back then, yet VH1 was. If you missed the Mobile Fidelity version, you can get Train's debut on vinyl this week. The ultimate classic reissue this week is Boston's self-titled debut. This one is a no-brainer, buy on sight, take my money, and get me home for some "Foreplay." Other classic releases include Neil Young (again), Tame Impala, Lord Finesse, and Panic! At the Disco.

In the News:  Not a lot of news this week, other than vinyl still going strong in the United States and in Europe. Glad our friends on the east side of the pond are listening to music in the most wonderful manner.

Coming Soon:  It's official for May 7th, 2021 - VAN WEEZER from our favorite band named Weezer (ironically). You can now pre-order from your favorite independent record store.
