Gift from the girlfriend.
I have no valid reason to explain buying a vinyl copy of an album I already bought on CD. I’ve done this before with Ted Leo records though.
The show was great but the band didn’t have the shirt I wanted in my size. I had all the CDs on sale and don’t really watch concert DVDs a bunch. I also spent 30 minutes waiting in the merch line.
I wish I’d at least lucked out with a colored vinyl copy. Well, at least the double album has a lyric sheet, and you might as well support the band you love.
Also: it sounds so warm, man.
This is apparently the original print release of The Wailers’ Catch a Fire, coming in a fake Zippo.
