The Score

There was a time when I was a teenager when pretty much all I was listening to was hip hop. However, I only have about two dozen actual records from that genre in my collection and I recently decided that needs to change. So be prepared to see some more hip hop vinyl on this blog in the future. This is another record I picked up in London. Classic record by The Fugees. Lauryn Hill has such an incredible voice. So many good songs on this LP. I also really like the cover and its nod to The Godfather. This is a recent repress on Music On Vinyl. I only learned afterwards that there's a gold vinyl variant out there, so maybe I'll have to upgrade at one point.

Rival Schools

Another Walter Schreifels band that is really, really good. Dude can't write bad music apparently. This is the latest reissue of Rival Schools debut LP United By Fate, which came out on Music On Vinyl just this year  The record comes on pretty sweet 180g swirly green vinyl, which sadly doesn't really show in the picture. Looks pretty good when you hold it up against the light. Also included is an 8-page booklet.
