I'm not *always* a colored vinyl guy - pressing a reissue in a limited edition of purple isn't going to get me to pay an extra $10. But - and I'm behind on this one, as I think this was a Record Store Day release from last June - the Tangerine Dream *Live at Reims Cinema Opera* on orange cloudy vinyl? That's the perfect match of sound and image.

One of the rare joys of middle age is that you’ve lived long enough to forget about things like the twenty-year old box of slides sitting in your closet. Shoutout to my local public library, the Ferndale Area District Library, for lending me a slide scanner, too. A reminder that 20 years ago, Andre the Giant still had a Posse.
