The red album

So this is the first record I remember loving, and the one that introduced me to The Beatles. When I was little I got a record player from my moms friend and then borrowed this record from my local library. I played the shit out of that record, and even copied a recording on a cassette so I could listen to it on my Walkman. 


It would be years later when taking a Beatles guitar course that I would learn that the red album had more songs in it - So unbeknownst to me, a whole vinyl was missing from the set at the library. 

Now, years later, I got a record player for Christmas. What's the 1st album I buy? A new copy of The Red Album- which the record store happened to just get in the day before.

So in the last day of 2015 I'll be listening to a fresh pressed copy of an old album, in complete order, for the first time.

PiBoIdMo is done!

I can't believe I kept up for the entire month!! It's been a while since I wrote regularly and I kinda miss it. I have a different voice when I write than my social/active self is on a day to day basis. Pretty proud that I managed to participate in PiBoIdMo 2015!
