    Online Vinyl Deals

    Well shoot. I ordered it thinking it was the Tone Poet along with Clubhouse. I'll keep Clubhouse but I emailed them to cancel Donald Byrd.

    Vinyl Me Please Rap & Hip Hop

    I saw that. For a while I was regretting skipping it, but it turns out I may have dodged a bullet. I can't recall getting a ROTM that sounded downright BAD, so this is surprising to me. Cicely has usually done really good work.
