Grand Rapids appears to be the thrift store capitol of the world. After a tiny selection at the local Goodwill, the SA had a bulk of records available.
I came away with a Ray Price record (they had another but it was pretty beat, so I passed). I found a double of the one I did buy, so I inspected everything to come away with the best jacket/vinyl. But the real story are the bizarre, local religious recordings that were in overwhelming numbers.
Now take a look at the rack above – the releases below only came from one side. Because I did not decide that it was worthy of taking pics until I had already seen at least 10 more of this ilk on the initial end. Almost none of these releases or even artists are on discogs.com – their wholesome faces just give me the ills. Enjoy.
This one was not religious but certainly local. I regret not buying it. This is the back cover – with autographs from all four members! |
