SPARKS NO.1 IN HEAVEN 45TH ANNIVERSARY CHAT FOR RECORD STORE DAY 2024

[pizzaqueen]

Not saying anything new, but I like Steddie when they both give each other shit—Steve ragging on Eddie for his nerdy interests and liking music that's just 'noise' and Eddie giving Steve shit for being so preppy and a jock and listening to snythpop or whatever—but only when they do it in that teasing, loving way and, if it hurt, they’d stop.

(And, even if they both truly don’t like the things they’re teasing about in a general sense—like, I personally enjoy entertaining the idea of Steve never getting into Eddie’s nerdy pursuits and Eddie never getting into basketball or pop music or whatever—it’s not something they dislike about each other? Like, they may tease, but they’d still be supportive, you know?)

Idk, I just enjoy that dynamic a lot! It’s fun (but I like it balanced with sincerity too and bonding over other things they both love, and sharing some of their formerly separate interests)

Vinyl Shopping

There were many songs, bands, and genres that many people had not even discovered yet. The thought of this fascinated August, and so sometimes when he was on tour he would seek out local record shops. Vinyls, instruments, posters, and more. Just to see if he could discover something he never heard before. Or perhaps something he hadn't heard in many years. It helped to inspire him to make more music. They were travelling through some city with a teeny population and big heart. With him today was someone else who loved music almost as much as the Father did, if not more. The redhead lifted one of the vinyls up, showing him from across the aisle. As per usual, she hit a jackpot. Wandering over to where she was, his fingertips flipped through the several titles of the thick vinyls. Current goth bands such as Roadside Memorial and Lebanon Hanover. Rock music like Sisters of Mercy, Switchblade Symphony, Faith and the Muse, and London after Midnight. Deathrock, never his cup of tea despite the type of music his band Avantgarden made. Snythpop bands like Wolfsheim were discovered, the essential type of tunes you would find in any 80s club. Darkwave. How could Auggie describe such a genre? Music fest stoners if they were dark-inclined. He put on a vinyl and put the big squishy headphones on to listen to half of it before delicately putting it over bumblebee's head, letting her listen to dark wave as well. She made a face, clear dissaproval. "Sounds like a gateway drug." A grin cracked across stone features, creasing dimples into stubble cheeks as he tried to hide his reaction to her comment. Pressing his lips together, August moved on to another aisle of records. All alphebitzed and color coded. Industrial to ethereal and everything in-between. Electronic Body Music. New Romantic, mostly 80s bands. The Prophet was never the romantic type as it is, so he moved on. Coldwave. Snythpop. New age punk. And then he found the jackpot. Right in the center. Whistling, he waved the woman with him over. She rest her chin on his shoulder and looked over to see what the curious shortking had uncovered in the heart of the vinyl shop. The two went straight into the Batcave. Bauhaus, Sioxsie and the Banshees, Joy Division, the Cure, Twin Tribes, Drab Majesty, Lebanon Hanover, Mode Moderne, The Hearse, She Past Away, Draconian Incubus, Linea Aspera, Virgin in Veil, Actors, Tempers, Merciful Nuns, Angels of Liberty, Neon Tzigane, O.Children, Cabaret Nocturne, SRSQ, Light Asylum, Night Sins, Hante, Sonsombre, Her Despair, The Awakening, Artificial Monuments, Scarlet Leaves , Geometric Visions, Boy Harsher, Pretentious Moi, Sombre, Whispering Sons, Velvet Condom, This Cold Night, Riki, Korine, Malefixio, Horror Vacui, Mirages, Cold Cave, HIGH-FUNCTIONING FLESH, Bat Nouveau, Disjecta Membra, Egoprisme, Opened Paradise, Molchat Doma, Living Temples, Future Faces, Kuta, Plastique Noir, Ritual Howls, The Rope, Wisborg. His head spun with excitement, almost overwhelmed. The only thing that yanked him back was the sound of a feminine laugh. Velvet and snake venom. He finally reached an inked hand out and settled on whatever it landed on. Leaving the store with Romeo's Distress.

enchanted, wizard~

enchanted: what fictional character scares you most?

i think the nomu from my hero academia are pretty scary; or at least they are in the anime. they aren’t as scary in the manga because you don’t see them moving around, but in motion they’re freaky as hell!

wizard: do you believe in aliens?

yes i do! our universe is so vast, i think it’s impossible for earth to be the only planet that carries life.

Rosie’s Vintage shopping list, 2018.

Two more stops to go before the music shopping spree is history. Whatever locations are on the list seems to be further away each time. Today’s theme is the record annex which is picking up on Long Island. It started a year-and-a-half ago when Hideaway Vinyl set shop in Rosie’s Vintage in Huntington. Looks like they have an online presence still despite nothing being updated in a few months, so why not take the trip to see what it’s all about?

It’s been quite a while since being in Huntington. I do have some personal history there. My ex- Yenny brought me over to work there (our second job working together) for several years and it’s where she used to live. And let’s try to forget a dreaded miserable summer post-rain day out with former friend and staffer Molina, who took me through a cemetery, burger place, and an isolated park in an attempt to get close to me. No dice.

I walk in to Rosie’s and it’s bonafide vintage. Looks like the owners took over a small Fifties-style house in white-bread suburbia. Walk in and you’ll certainly feel the loud creaking of the all-wood floors. Its’ living room, dens, bedrooms, and many closets are filled with tons of kitsch, knick-knacks, and collectibles from the mid-century. Street signs, old threads, compasses, jewelry, board games, wardrobes, dolls, salt-shakers...I can go on. There’s many stories and tales to be told by each and every object that survived its’ era; all neatly organized, piled, and sorted. As an added touch, there’s the classics played on the overheads. Collections were posted on its page and testimonials from its customers recall their purchases: old vials and medicine jars, pill and spice tins, matchbook collections, sports pennants, dishes, and the occasional naughty glassware. I can still go on if you want me to.

The guy behind the register greets me and asks what he could do for me. I’m here for Hideaway Vinyl, I say. He tells me that they left shop a few months ago. Could’ve fooled me. They no longer exist. They’re still present online on social media but it all made sense why the lack of updates. Had Hideaway stayed, there’d be a presence of punk, hardcore, surf, ska, and rockabilly. He did show me where all the vinyl is now deposited by Vinyl Paradise. Remember them? There were twelve shelves top and bottom of pre-owned vinyl, four of the same across from those bins of newly-pressed and Record Store Day releases. 

Of the first twelve were plenty of rock, pop, dance, and 12″ dee-jay singles most for $10.00 and less with the occasional new hardcore pressing. I found a lot of 12″ hip-hop and dance singles; Nice & Wild and Harold Faltermeyer were two hits New York’s Z100 played growing up during my single-digit Eighties youth. Everything else in Shabba Ranks, Mad Skillz, Boogiemonsters, and Blahzay Blahzay were all summer hits going to Brentwood. WBLS, Hot 97, and Kiss FM played them all. As always, there’s the pop-rock quotient from Genesis and Dire Straits. Hello, nice to meet you again. Also relieved to find was the complete Malcomb McLaren & The World Famous Supreme Team’s “Buffalo Gals” in a die-cut label sleeve.

In comes Thea, co-owner of Rosie’s Vintage in her rockabilly / Rosie The Riveter motif. She says hello and sees the stack in my hand. She offers to put it aside for me which I obliged. I kindly ask if there would be more vinyl and does tell me there might be some upstairs. That’s where I’m going. Heading up is possibly one of the steepest set of steps I experienced walking. I also had to dodge a heavy-set punk couple decked with gauges, tattoos, low-cut tank tops and tees coming from downstairs. I walk up and there’s a closet with a secret crate of records on the floor containing The Talking Heads’ 77 for $20.00 and its’ sister Tom Tom Club’s Close To The Bone for $15.00. Shucks. I scour the upstairs to find many more antiques. Compasses, typewriters, old magazines, books, brochures in one room with very little traces of 7″ records in one crate. The kitchen was full of dishes, glasses, and silverware stacked in the sink and on its’ counter but no records to be found.

Thea rings me up and I’m golden. This became the shortest time spent in any store with the smallest stack and the least amount of money paid. 45 minutes to look through 16 bins of records for a total of $29.00 and I say good-bye to Rosie’s Vintage and Huntington until next time. Only two more stores are on the list to go before calling it quits on record-shopping for a while: Sunday Records in Riverhead and Innersleeve Records in Amagansett.
