July 2019 Vinyl Challenge

Day 22: Colorful
Thee Oh Sees - An Odd Entrances


This is a less essential but good laid back jam Oh Sees record from the same recording session of the amazing A Weird Exits. They always do a great job with various colored releases that look great. This one included a bonus flexi which sounds suprisingly good for my first exposure to one.

Day 22: Colorful

Gonna combine the first 2 colored vinyl records I bought....since they are 7"s. I picked up these and the majority of my 7"s at an antique mall in Quincy, IL probably in 1995-1996. I could have still been in high school, but I was probably out by then. One seller had a nice collection of 7" that I bought a lot of....The Clash, Talking Heads, Costello, XTC - I just always think of what I left there - as I don't think this place is around anymore.


It is also the 42nd Birthday of the UK release of My Aim Is True...so it seems fitting to spin some Costello.
