Doing my usual Saturday laundry/cleaning routine, I decided to comb through  
the rest of my vinyl--I keep it all in a huge Rubbermaid 54 gallon plastic  
tote, and, it's like an '80s time capsule.  I highly recommend doing this  maybe 
once every few years--go through your old vinyl and play something you  
haven't heard in maybe 20+ years.  I pulled out the Flirts lp with "Jukebox  (Don't 
Put Another Dime)" and by the second track after that single, I took it  off 
the turntable and said, "NEXT!!!"  It was like a banana that tasted  good on 
the first bite, but rotted in about three minutes and was black  rancid by the 
end bite.  But, I struck gold on the next disc--a 12" of  General Public's 
"Tenderness" which is much, much better than the original radio  single, and it 
hit the same pleasure center in my brain that it did when I was a  senior in 
h.s., and I was thoroughly enjoying separating whites from colors  (being the 
skinhead launderer that I am).
 
I think I'll play that one again....
 
Cheers,
