Life on My Own

Was dragging a little when I woke up this morning. This video is better than four cups of coffee and woke me right up.

It's The Limit/Hard Times

Survival of the Streets

As I was searching for a spot to paddle out at the other morning, I stumbled upon this little scene on one of the side streets in Ocean City. It seemed like a real rough crowd was hanging out until it dawned on me that they are Stewart's root beer bottles. I'm half surprised that they aren't candy cigarettes.

Sign of the Times

Another staple of my visits to the Lehigh Valley includes a stop at Double Decker Records. I am always in awe of what insane records I see there and also wonder which records I missed out on in the weeks in between visits. Two copies of AF's "United Blood" and a copy of "Victim in Pain" were there along with a Judge "Bringin' It Down" LP on Green were there while I dug through the stacks. While I was salivating over the Judge record, I opted for picking up the LP below:

The wallet was a little light going in which was a huuuuge mistake (would have loved that Judge), but I was glad to score the Cro-Mags record. I had been meaning to add this to my collection for years and had actually kept my eye on a couple eBay auctions but never bid. Lo and behold, I walk in and there it is sitting on the shelf. I can't believe I waited this long to add it.

Record Shop

I was watching the movie "Rockers" over the weekend. Besides having an amazing soundtrack, its actually a pretty entertaining film. If you know anything about the movie, you know that the lead character, Horsemouth, takes a job in the record distribution business at the start. After buying his motorcycle he can be seen driving from record shop to record shop pushing 200 copies of the "45" that he picked up from the plant.

I grabbed this picture of Horsemouth just outside one of the local record shops. How great would it be to be able to run a viable business out of a place like that? I wonder if they have a copy of the "Age of Quarrel" lp for me?
