We also have two new bands for the first time at show. Hornet Leg from Portland, OR and Apache from San Francisco.

This episode is a special dedicated to the record stores of Cleveland. Last Saturday afternoon I left out to see Bassholes. The gig was canceled so I decided to make a tour around Cleveland’s record stores. Friend of mine Jaime made me company. We first hit My Mind’s Eye which I frequently visit. The store has two rooms, one filled with CDs and other filled with two vinyl sections – one with new stuff and other with used stuff. There is also a section with literature. So I grabbed the newest Manchild by Brian Walshby. Again, it comes with Melvins CD as a bonus. I also got a few LPs. Then Jaime suggested we hit Hodad’s. I never been there before, but I love the place. A bunch of records of all genres and ages and a very cute 7″ section. This is the only store in Cleveland that has reasonable prices for 7″. Quality is good too. Jamie picked two local 7″: Cobra Verde’s split with Leaving Trains and Downsider Special – the old band for the Cobra Verde’s Frank Vazzano. Then we drove over to Collinwood where we hit my favorite store Blue Arrow Records. To my surprise, they had a new bargain bin section filled with 1 and 2 dollar records. It was not your typical bargain bin section – it had a lot of cool stuff. Among other’s phenomenal second LP for the House of Freaks, Tantilla. This was an opportunity for the owner of the Pete Gulyas and I to reminisce about the tragic demise of Bryan Harvey’s family. When we got to This Way Out, a photo shoot with some chick dressed in skimpy outfits took place over there. We took this opportunity to ruin their photo shoot by posing with them, and we spent some time chatting with Dave who reveals to us that he volunteers at the store in the breaks of being a rock star. Then we went to Music Saves the next door. It was closed for the moment, but we gave up waiting and left home with bags full of records. This show is (almost) entirely consisted of music bought that day!

Yeah, the reissue of Exile On Main Street is scheduled for May, but as the record company decided to put out a special single out on the record store day with a song dug out from the Exile vaults called Plundered My Soul. When you think of that the Stones actually had so many good songs those days that they just threw out something like that… Another reissue for this year is Elvis Costello’s Live At The Hollywood High ep this time expanded to a full blown long playing CD reissue.
