Girl power!


 I love finding albums made by families and their friends, especially knowing that they are most likely very limited edition. Doesn't make them worth more in most cases (they're worth whatever you paid), but kinda neat knowing hardly anyone has it nowadays. They often have a certain amount of religiousness to them, but that's ok. I mostly buy them for the covers.

P.S. I am updating the picture today (Dec. 9, 2017), as the old one was on Photobucket...*groan*...and now realize how off I was in my 'limited edition' comment, especially being reminded below of how big some of these people were at one time. I can look back on it and laugh, especially understanding the situation FAR better now, having been collecting records for several years now.

I can play it for them...

 ...but I doubt they'll listen. :p

Update: Found the accompanying book at the same Salvation Army thrift store on May 11, 2012!

I should give it to my neighbor.

Homespun memories

Homespun. Get it? Cuz New Brunswick is/was home...and it's a record...which spins. Spun. *ahem* My parents gave this to my mother's parents.

Interesting that it was printed in the U.S.A. instead of Canada. Cheaper, maybe? Less chance of maple syrup spilling on them? (well, not if they were made in Maine)*







*Actually, I just looked and it was indeed recorded in Bangor, Maine at a place called Commercial Ventures. Heh...
