Just checked Discogs. Looks like it’s only on CD and streaming.

I got the cheap black vinyl. There is a color variation—it might have it. It didn’t occur to me to check.

James Mikeal @jamesmikeal.bsky.social · 19d

I was disappointed that the vinyl didn’t include the Invocation track that’s streaming.

I really liked Isbell’s divorce album from earlier this year, but #NobodysGirl by #AmandaShires is much more cohesive, imho. #vinylsky #nowplaying #music

The #bonustracks on this are my favorite tracks, I think. #emilysaliers #MumurationNation #vinyl #nowplaying Not the #indigogirls

I am the da still playing it. Big fan of everything Paul Simon. I don’t know if I could pick a favorite, but this is top 3 for sure—I mean, I own three copies. Rhythm of the Saints is up there, too.

I’m halfway through one now, History Lessons by Wallbrook.

3/5 of the way through Brian Anderson’s book #LoudandClear about #thewallofsound, so I’ve been listening to a lot of live #dead. Decided to go back to the beginning for a change. #GratefulDead #music #vinylsky #nowplaying

First day back at work after 8 days off and it kinda sucked. Needed an attitude adjustment. #NormanGranz #JazzatthePhilharmonic #jazz #vinylsky #BuddyRich #BennyCarter#LesterYoung #RoyEldridge #CarnegieHall #live 1952

You’re the third person this week I’ve heard say that. The costume changes, the band, everything.
