Today was Record Store Day. I planned on going and maybe picking up a few records pressed just for today. I did get a couple records, but nothing super exciting when compared to what else I found. At one of the record stores I went through all their 7" records and pulled out a stack of interesting records. Many were not priced. I brought them to the front desk to get priced and then I could figure out what I could afford. I thought that was all I was going to get. But then one of the guys working there walked by with a Flipper album. I asked if I could see it and I then told him I was going to buy it. He then told me had gotten a bunch of punk records from the 80's out. The store had just gotten in a big record collection and they were literally just unpacking boxes and putting out records. I found some of these in the racks and others as the Black Flag and two Big Black records I grabbed as soon as he priced them. I'm sure there were more gems in the boxes, but I had to cut myself of and leave before I spent any more money. Anyway I was pretty excited to get these few records. I laid them out for this photo to immortalize the days treasure. It was something I saw today.
