Hey Everyone:
I did some vinyl shopping in Berkeley the other day and picked up some great stuff at Amoeba and Rasputin.
I bought copies of Hacienda's Loud Is The Night and Big Red & Barbacoa, both on the Alive label. Big Red & Barbacoa is on a limited edition of 500 red vinyl. If you haven't heard Hacienda, I recommend checking the Texas quartet out. Dan Auberbach of The Black Keys, who produced the albums once described the band as "Mexican-Americans who are obsessed with the Beach Boys." There are some great harmonies here.
Amoeba also had an import copy of The White Stripes' Elephant so I picked that up as well. It's nice to have it on vinyl.
At Rasputin, I bought The Swell Season's Strict Joy. It's a good Sunday morning album, nice and mellow with a Van Morrison kinda vibe.
Last but not least, I also bought Liz Phair's great Exile In Guyville. It's a special 15th anniversary reissue that comes with a 45 of previously unreleased material. This album is a classic.
