Record store finds

[benm1976]

We brought the kids to Kansas City to see Taylor Swift, which gave me the opportunity to do some record shopping. On the Carpenters front, I found The Singles 1974-1978 for $6 and Live at the Palladium for $3, both in great condition. Two Carpenters-adjacent purchases were “Sleeping Gypsies” by Michael Frank, and “The Queen Alone” by Carla Thomas, one of the first artists to record “Any Day Now.”

I listened to that Michael Franks album on holiday a few weeks ago. Absolutely loved it.

I'll bet the Taylor Swift tickets were the cost of a decent vacation to .Bahamas. Those two albums are a nice find, considering they were not released in the US.
