Disney kids records (hoped to find a Scarecrow of Romney Marsh album, but no such luck) #VinylSky

Kids albums, most with the original plastic outer sleeve still present! #Vinyl

Some 10" 78s with picture sleeves, mostly children's, but the Clint Walker is not? #78rpm #shellac

Struck by this 1954 recording by Detroit's Baby Boy Warren that pretty successfully updates Robert Johnson's song and doesn't copy the much better known SBW1 version at all. With the tenor sax added, it sounds closer to Elmore James (without the slide). #NowPlaying #BluesSky youtu.be/dmJg8bYOf2A?...

14 confirmed dead in Kentucky this morning after storms/tornadoes last night
