Awright, a moment o' silence is in order junky, so bow yer head,
I came back early ta pay some respect ta a reckid store thit closed in my neighbahood, Bleecker Bob's Golden Oldies Record Shop. Everybody will tell you dat it wis a dump cause it was; it wis rough an' smelly an' looked cheap, but it wis still special. Those who haven't got a clue will tell you it wis special cause it's where Lenny Kaye met Patti Smith and where Seinfeld shot an episode or where Joey an' Johnny Ramone used ta shop, but who cares about dat shit? Bob's wis where I got bit by da bug man; it's where I started lookin' fer new reckids when I's a kid.
That's what made it special ta me, so bow yer heads.
In memorium fer da passing o' Bleecker Bob's, I pulled together a special SWAG Report. I's not special 'cause da songs're all about reckid stores or nothin', jus' a little ahead o' schedule, ya know? Ann'ey're some pretty killer songs too. Like I nabbed some remixes from the new EP thit The Cannanes jus' released an' put 'em inn'ere, anotha new tune from da new album thit The Transplants are puttin' outa new tune from Girls Against Boys which is pritty good, a REALLY good rock song by Dead Stars an' a buncha songs by da new band thit's been kickin' around Epitaph, The Milk Carton Kids. Alla them're great songs junky, so go geddem! An' while yer at it (if yer around), tag Bleecker Bob's an' say somethin' nice.
Love & sloppy kisses,
yr. ever-lovin' Don Loder.
