Radiohead - Kid A I remember this coming out in my late teens. It blew me away. I think I listened to the CD nonstop for weeks. For some time, Kid A was only available as a 10-inch (like this one). It has since come out as a standard 12-inch. #VinylCommunity #NowSpinning #Radiohead #MusicSky

Some Sunday evening psych. Strawberry Alarm Clock - Wake Up...It's Tomorrow Their first album, and hit single, Insence & Peppermints, gets all the attention. But, I would argue this is at least just as good and gets little recognition outside of psych heads. #VinylCommunity #NowSpinning
