A friend of mine is leaving his position to start his own business. He is opening an antique store in Howard Lake, Minnesota. Located right on Highway 12 Tiques & Things will sell many items including several I have given him. I'm not being especially nice. I want to declutter and he can make some money so it's a win/win thing. I am (gulp) giving away my record collection. Deep breath. I have them loaded in my car already. I haven't listened to a record for 30 years or more so it is time to give them to someone who will appreciate them. People still buy records he told me. I will miss them. I will miss the artwork. Back in the good old days we used to get visual art with our musical art.The following is a list of the records I am giving him. If you think musical tastes reflect our values, well, in that case I am sunk. Here you go: Tapestry by Carole King, Christopher Cross (the one with a flamingo on the cover), Doobie Brothers sing Taking It To The Streets, Beatles 1967-1970, John and Yoko sing Double Fantasy, Don McLean sings Solo, The Beatles 1962-1966, Styx II, Styx Equinox, The Hissing of Summer Lawns by Joni Mitchell, Hotcakes by Carly Simon, Dream and Little Dream of Me by the Mamas and the Papas, People like Us by the Mamas and the Papas, Blondes Have More Fun by my main man, Rodney Stewart, Diamond Girl by Seals and Croft, The Missing Piece by Gentle Giant, Dream Boat Annie by Heart, two albums by Boston, Wild and Crazy Guy by Steve Martin, Blood Sweat & Tears, The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway by Genesis, Never a Dull Moment by my man Rodney, Another Passenger by Carly Simon,Grand Illusion by Styx, Atlantic Crossing by my man Rodney, Every Picture Tells A Story another classic by my man Rodney (one of his best imho), 16 Early Hits by Rodney, Night on the Town by Rodney my man, Footloose (I love you honey!) by my man Rodney, Night Moves by Bob Seger, The Best of Rod Stewart by guess who, Greatest Hits by Linda Ronstad and Smiler by my main man, Rod (the bod) Stewart.
