Record Store Day This Saturday-- Part 1: A Trip Back in Time
Now just two days away, Record Store Day (RSD) will be celebrated here in the United Sartes as well as U.K., Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, France, Mexico, Italy and Spain.
This is a day for us old folks as we get to pay our respects to those old mom and pop record stores and again do that special album flips through the racks looking for that special treasure. Just a couple months ago, I found the Jaime Brockett albums with "Ballad of the USS Titanic" on it. A real experience at my usual local, The Vinyl Frontier, record store in McHenry, Illinois.
Not only do I enjoy flipping those albums, but CDs are almost as much fun.
I have been to most of the RSDs and plan to hit two of them Saturday.
And, I am really happy to be seeing more and more young people (a lot of high school students) who are coming into the stores. I thought those of my ilk were going the way of the dinosaurs in this era of up and downloading.
Finally, a Day for Me!! --RoadDog

3. The repetitive lyrics is "Oppan Gangham Style."
4. Gangham is a posh district of seoul, South Korea, something like the Beverly Hills of South Korea.

Gangham Style Gone and Probably Never-to-Be-Forgotten
From Y! Music.
Remember hearing this song played ad infinitum back a coupla-three years ago? Well, South Korean rapper Psy had a new single out called "Gemtlemen," back then, but it never took off, making him, so far, a one-hit wonder. But, at the time, he was known as "The King of You Tube."
This new single met with mixed reviews and closely followed the same formula as his big hit.
I loved the video and the song was one you just couldn't get out of head.
Really!! --RoadDog
