This week Pepperoni picked Marty Robbins

“Hold on right one second there partner! My pick this week is for cowboys and REAL cowboys only. You might be comin’ in ter my store ter ask if we have Marty Robbins “Gunfighter Ballads” originally released in 1959 because ye heard it on some sorta video game you were playin “fallout” or somethin. Maybe ye askin bout this here cause yer granpappy used to listen to it on ol 78. That’s fine. but only come in lookin’ fer this record on vinyl if you spit in a REAL spitoon like me, Pepperoni! Meow!”

Have you played our newest pinball MOTORDOME yet at our downtown arcade??? Check out all the strategy on our official Motordome forum

Wow, what a great weekend last weekend was with so much going on all at once downtown. The first Saturday Farmer’s Market, the Old Capital Art Fair, and Pridefest. We had great weather and an amazing time.

Meanwhile at the mall, Granpa has his garden planted and is all ready for summer!

So now for this week, here are you hot Friday Titles!

– STEREOLAB have their first new album in over ten years. “Instant Holograms on Metal Film.” We know we are getting copies on black, our fingers are crossed that we will receive some indie exclusives on clear.
– EXODUS “Bonded By Blood” is getting re-issued on color vinyl, this iconic 1985 metal album that influenced the world of metal.
– JOE JONAS (one of the Jonas Brothers) has a new solo album “Music For People Who Believe In Love” out on white vinyl.\
– GREEN DAY with the deluxe edition of their newest album that came out last year, “Saviors” out on double pink vinyl!
– MANNEQUIN P*SSY with a re-issue of their 2016 album “Romantic” on color vinyl.

This week Pepperoni picked Daft Punk

“You know, aside from the TRON soundtrack, I have yet to pick an actual DAFT PUNK album as my pick of the week! That has got to change! So here we have their second album “Discovery” from 2001! It’s okay to dance at home in your living room in your underwear to this. It’s electronic, it’s disco, it’s pop, it’s French. It’s also music for robots. Enjoy!”

This Friday is this show, and wouldn’t ya know it, it’s not just all hardcore, there’s some interesting sounding darkwave in there and maybe some other surprises too!

And in case that’s not enough for ya, here’s another happening on Tuesday!

Why don’t we start with what show is coming up. Looks like we have hardcore kids streaming in from all over, Alabama even to play a show here Thursday.

Here’s your hot Friday releases:

– FLIGHT OF THE CONCHORDS and their self-titled 2008 album: it’s getting a gold vinyl re-issue!
– HOZIER’s self-titled album is now 10 years old and the deluxe edition is now being released on vinyl! On black double LP.
– We’ve got a line of re-issues from 90’s shoegaze band SLOWDIVE including “Soulvaki”, “Pygmalion”, and “Just For A Day.”
– Also re-issues from REGINA SPEKTOR including albums “Begin To Hope,” “Far,” and “What We Saw From The Cheap Seats.”

This week Pep picked the Police

“I bet you all didn’t expect me to be picking THE POLICE this week! This is their second full length album, “Reggatta De Blanc” originally released in 1979! NO, it doesn’t have “Roxanne” on it, but it DOES have “Message In A Bottle” and “Walking On The Moon” on it! My favorite track? “No Time This Time”. I always thought The Police were great at blending that 70’s rock with a little bit of punk and a healthy dose of reggae mixed in. Enjoy!”

We have also added a new pinball in the arcade this week!

Wow our midnight Ghost record release party was a huge hit! A whole ton of people came out for it and everything! We’re really excited how all this went and we’re for sure looking for more opportunities to party with everyone in the future.

Here are this week’s new vinyl releases!
– STAR WARS LOFI!?!? On some wild looking splatter vinyl!??
– American country artist ERIC CHURCH’s eighth studio “Evangeline Vs. The Machine” – is it gray vinyl or is it black I can’t tell.
– A re-issue of PRIMUS’s 1990 album “Frizzle Fry” on purple and white split vinyl!
– Canadian punk band PROPAGANDHI are back with their first album in 8 years – “At Peace” – we can’t remember if we ordered black vinyl or the pink kind.
– PINK FLOYD LIVE AT POMPEII – going along with a re-issue of the 1972 live film, which I saw they are showing at the iMax theater here!

This week Pep picked Tracy Chapman

“My pick this week is Tracy Chapman’s 1988 self-titled debut album! This was (finally) recently re-issued on vinyl, and thank goodness it was because original copies have been highly sought after ever since we opened our store. The album features a blending of folk and roots music, with lyrical content gearing towards political and social issues. “Fast Car” was the biggest hit on the album that made it to the billboard charts.”

Lots of folks waited in line at both stores eagerly awaiting Record Store Day last Saturday

We certainly had the biggest RSD of all time. Thanks to everyone who came out.

Back to business now, here is Pepperoni’s Pick of the week:

“Blue album or Pinkerton? I actually already picked the blue album as my pick over a year ago, but now, I am finally picking Pinkerton. In my opinion they are both great and both have their hits. It’s no Beverly Hills, but this one has “El Scorcho”, “Pink Triangle”, “The Good Life”… really a masterpiece from start to finish.”

Here’s this Friday’s HOT New Vinyls!

– CHILDISH GAMBINO has a new double LP “Bando Stone And The New World” apparently this is his last album? apparently this is a soundtrack for a movie that doesn’t exist and it’s some sort of listening experience? what is going on?
– SAM BARBER “Restless Mind” new album from 22 year old American country artist, I don’t actually know what color of vinyl we are getting.
– FALLING IN REVERSE re-issue for for their 2015 album “Just Like You” on pink splatter vinyl.
– BEIRUT with their seventh studio album “A Study Of Losses” on transparent blue vinyl.
– And then re-issues of some popular Record Store Day releases of the past including STRESS EATER (aka Czarface) album “Everybody Eats” on black vinyl.
– and “SOUTH PARK: The 25th Anniversary Concert” out on a tri-fold cover and 3LP black vinyl.

We’re very busy getting everything ready for Record Store Day coming up on April 12th, only 10 days away! We’re trying our best to make this the biggest event ever!

Meanwhile, here are the hot new releases coming out this Friday!

– ETHEL CAIN “Preacher’s Daughter” – this is an album that was actually released in 2022 but the physical release is this Friday and our phone’s have been ringing off the hooks about it. Is this one a big deal? We will have some regular copies and some indie exclusive copies – I can’t figure out what color the exclusive vinyl is (maybe black still?) but I do know the exclusive comes with a poster.
– TRACY CHAPMAN – her 1988 album is finally being re-issued on vinyl! This has been mostly unavailable to us for as long as we have been doing the record store. Some copies pressed on orange and some black
