Record Store Day at Jersey’s Sound Station

Sound Station: Record Store Day 2011 New Jersey


Tomorrow you shall Carpediem the crap out of some amazing schwagg and limited record releases. One spot and item that you should know about is this rarities Tape being offered to special customers at the Sound Station in dear old colonial Westfield, NJ. They have a special offer on freakin’ cassette. The contents of which are evem super secret and rare even to me. When you get there ask for Bob or Liz and tell them The Review Stalker sent you. They will know what to do. No you won’t need kevlar or anything like that but be prepared to imbibe some live music starting at noon by Milan, or catch some Reggae music, maybe catch a set by locals 117 Band or Daveen Decite. Anything could happen on Record Store Day! Be sure to check-in at Foursquare at The Sound Station in Westfield and try and kick me out as Mayor. The challenge is on and maybe you will find some of this stuff.

Here’s some covers to celebrate:
Shoplifters of the World, Unite MP3 by The Stateside Menace (Smiths)
There Is A Light That Never Goes MP3 by the Dum Dum Girls (Smiths)
Unbelievable (320) MP3 by The Last Royals (EMF)
Billy Jean Live MP3 by Belle & Sebastian (Michael Jackson)

Joe Strummer Love Kills

Joe Strummer Love Kills


So did Farrah Fawcett get trumped or what? When one large icon dies it’s always a good time to remember some of the others who were nothing but good souls. Joe Strummer (1952–2002) was always true to his roots and the origin of rockn’roll. Thus his 50’s look I would say. Part of legacy brings the Strummerville Foundation which strives to enable folks the opportunity to create music who may not have the chance.

“Love Kills” was the title track for Sid & Nancy movie soundtrack. Being as I totally missed 7″ Friday yesterday I’m giving you a 12″ LP on Sunday. Here’s the dub mix promo of said song which I found in the bins at the Princeton record exchange. If you want some nostalgia check out this Out of Control T-Shirt from the good folks at worn free. I have a red one and so should you if they are still available. They have some cool stuff.
