Almost 10 years ago, my oldest son was 4 years old and used to accompany me to the record stores. He was OBSESSED with trains at that time... couldn’t think about anything else. One day when were out at a shop, he comes to me with this in his hands, asking if he could buy it. 99¢, what kind of father would I be to turn him down? This is now the second time I’ve ever listened to it and it’s skipping all over the place. It’s exactly what you think it would be: a bunch of old folky/country songs about riding trains and lots guitars sounding like a train whistle. May be another ten years before I listen to this again, but thanks for the opportunity to remember a certain era!
 
Day 26: Play something about love.

There's a lot of songs/albums about love out there...here is one.

White Zombie ‎– Astro-Creep: 2000 (Songs Of Love, Destruction And Other Synthetic Delusions Of The Electric Head)
Music On Vinyl ‎– MOVLP547, 1995/2012

Limited/Numbered to 1000 on Green Translucent w/ Black Smoke, #116
Numbering was on the hype sticker on the shrinkwrap - this was before MOV started gold-foiling the numbers. I lost mine a long time ago.
