today is my last day in barcelona...then three days in madrid, and then newark.



i found this killer rekkid shop called Edison´s, and i dug up some hep discs: Pixies - Bossanova (mint condition vinyl. and its the pixies), The Animals - Tracking the Hits (a late 60s greatest hits on vinyl), Birth Control - Hoodoo Man (this really awesome scandinavian proto stoner heavy-ass blues...with organ and lemmy-like vocals.all in 1969 (vinyl)), Teenage Riot (a compilation on vinyl of really scuzzy R&B stuff from the late 50s about juvenile delinquients), and the Flaming Groovies - Shake some Action (mick jagger said this band was better than the stones. and this disc is proof. its got some live stuff, more or less a best of. great great stuff. check them out if you haven't).



i´m gonna go see Smog tonight...should be a good show. its like lo-fi depression music. like dashboard confessional without all the whining. or an acoustic joy division. good stuff;i´m really looking foward to it.



music. at least i´m not an alcoholic.
