Podcast #40, “Wanted On Wax”

stack-of-cdsLet us discuss the ridiculous irony inherent in the fact that this podcast took longer to do than the regular ones. That’s right: ripping tracks from CDs (a process that should be nearly instantaneous) took more time than recording songs from vinyl LPs and singles. In addition, I didn’t even get the pleasure of listening to the tracks as I recorded them.

On a positive note, I think the idea of “albums that’ve not been pressed on vinyl” makes for a nice unifying theme for this week’s podcast. It allows me to play a bunch of tracks that would otherwise be exempt, and also reminded me of some great albums that really ought not to be collecting dust in the living room. The likelihood of any of these albums ever seeing a vinyl release are infinitesimal, save maybe the MxPx record, but one can always dream, right?
