Good morning.
I don’t think that I can add anything meaningful given the relentless coverage and punditry that has occurred over the last year.
Election 2024.

They’re on the way, they know where you live, and they have questions.

Stay in School, Don’t Be a Dropout (1967) was not a commercial release and fewer than 10,000 copies are known to exist in its original vinyl format.
This was a DJ album, distributed to R&B/Soul radio stations in urban areas. It’s got no lead-in tracks, meaning that the DJ had to pick what announcement or song he wanted to play and place the needle by hand. Stax/Volt was clever, in that the tracks of songs they were selling were preceded by public service announcements by the artists themselves: Otis Redding, Carla Thomas, Eddie Floyd, William Bell, Sam & Dave, The MGs & The Mar-Keys.
Guess what’s in my old vinyl collection!
