Thanks for sharing. It’s good to see other artists get involved. Also makes a change from my own posts about vinyl.
It would be cool to see others write about their own passion.
I haven't popped in to check this thread that often, but to be clear, it's
always cool to see posts of interesting vinyl releases and reissues by other artists, especially box sets and cool colored vinyl!
