SWIRLIES
Blonder Tongue Audio Baton
2016 U.S. Reissue
Awesome mail delivery today!
Another signature #90s masterpiece from another one of my beloved hometown #boston bands!
Been wanting this a while, and I had no idea this was still available until I went on the Taang! Records website.
BTW… LOTS of cool shit available on their site. Worth checking out.
Killer album. So happy to have it now.

Been a magical last few days around these parts with the snow.
I may have scared the shit out of the six or seven 8 year olds out playing on my street today.
Imagine you’re building a snowman , & all of a sudden you see a 47 year old, 6’4, 230 pound ape on your street.
He then asks you, “How you boys livin?”
This is how I give back to the younger generation.
I offer them confusion & surrealism, free of charge.
Well, it appears as if my previous 7,000k + posts did not migrate with me over to the new server.
That’s more than ok.
Like I already said, most of all the beautiful people who follow me have.
Clean slate, but same wonderful crowd.
Your friendly neighborhood Vinyl Ape loves you.

Taking a few months-long furlough, folks. Need to attend to some musical business.
Heading to #california , #seattle , #oregon , #boston , and #providence .
If I see or find anything of interest along the way, I’ll be sure to let you know.
Have a feeling #tubi is going to be my best friend during transit.
Gotta whole bunch of low-rent cult movies on deck.
See you soon, ape
Your friendly neighborhood Vinyl Ape is feeling very loved this morning.
Received a wonderful belated birthday present this morning from a wonderful person.
Do ALL apes look sexy as fuck in leather?
Or is it just me?
The latter, probably.

All these years later… 311 continue to be one of the worst bands to have ever existed.

Kind of a tough night for your good pal The Vinyl Ape.
An accidental mishap with insulin lead to a very long ordeal which included an ambulance ride and an overnight stay in the hospital.
I have returned home now and am resting.
That was some scary shit.
I’m so very thankful to be alive.
Take care of yourselves and one another.

Your friendly neighborhood Vinyl Ape is off on a 2700 mile trek to #boston and #providence #rhodeisland to play a few shows and visit some old friends (that’s what I told THEM anyway )
But the REAL objective is to do some hardcore #cratedigging and #vinyl hunting across two states for six days.
I’ll be sure to share some of the adventure with you.
Maybe one more spin before I depart. What shall it be?
(See next post).

A fine Wednesday to you all.
A rare photo of your friendly neighborhood Vinyl Ape.
I know what you’re thinking, and the answer is yes.
I got a haircut.
Can you guess which one?

Was out at a costume/party shop today and came across this.
Being that I am the Vinyl Ape, I thought, “Sure.”
All life is, ladies and gentlemen, is a series of decisions.
Make the right ones.
