When's the last time you listened to records? I mean real records - 33 1/3 RPM vinyl. C'mon - you must have some somewhere - in a closet or boxed up in storage, perhaps? But maybe your turntable is long gone, or in my case, needs a new needle. Fear not! The BUCCANEER LOUNGE in Sierra Madre hosts the "WEDNESDAY NIGHT PLATTER PARTY" every week, and D.J. Dan Besocke plays entire sides of LPs brought in by customers on his stereo.
It's good old-fashioned, nostalgic fun to examine the album covers, read the liner notes, and hear the recordings as they were originally released, despite the occasional pops & cracks. And anything goes - polkas, comedy, show tunes, disco - you name it. So dig thru your collection or pick up a few at Poo Bah or Canterbury Records and join us at the Buc - Wednesday nights at 9pm. And check out this week's photo of D.J. Dan, bartender birthday boy Tony, and Steve Vargas, showing some of their favorites. Tony - is that a Banana Splits record????? Groovy man!
