national record store day

national record store day, the sight and sounds of going to the music store and buying a fresh record. there was a time when that was the ultimate gift and it still is for many lovers of records, watching those 33's spin and rotate as you snap your fingers and groove. you want to capture that feeling in the digital age where mp3 players and downloading are the norms. of course so many record stores have vanished, use to be a whole bunch of mom and pop stores along with other stores, nowadays only a handful can hang once target and wallmart got into the game. going to the record store for me back in the day was like going to a carnival, i could get lost and enjoy myself so much. what a wonderful feeling it was.
