After The Searchers, I went to Strangeworld Records. The owner was a nice guy and of all the record stores I went to, Strangeworld had the best prices for new records but unfortunately nothing really tickled my fancy. The last store I had time for was Heartland. I really wanted to go to Poison City, because a store selling records and skateboards is hard to beat, but it was too far away and I simply couldn‘t manage to get there time-wise. Maybe on the next trip…
Heartland was a cool store and I‘ve never seen so many multi record box sets. That was a sight to behold. I made a mental note of some of them, because I definitely wasn‘t going to buy one of these and lug it around for the rest of the trip. The selection at Heartland was really good, but I knew I could get most of the newer records back home for a much better price. But since I didn‘t want to leave without another record, I browsed the small, but decent second hand section. And lo and behold, I spotted this cool rerelease of the first Bikini Kill EP. I already had a copy, but this 2022 version comes with a gigantic fold out poster with a bunch of interviews and pictures. So this is a clear upgrade for me.
