This album received a mention on tonight's edition of O'Reilly Factor!

I seem to recall paying $3.98 to about $5.98 for LPs in the 1960s. That's $30 to $45 in today's dollars.
I just paid $30.80 for Shelby Lynne's "Tears, Lies, and Alibis" LP. She is a great singer/songwriter, and the sound on the LP is as good as it gets. It's extra good for the money because the pressing is fairly low volume - we're not talking "Dark Side of the Moon" here. I can't imagine this is a money-maker.
So, buying a great LP for $30ish, or a great download for $22ish sounds like a good deal to my old ears. Sure, there are duds, and when we get one, whether from Jack's Records in Red Bank (where I got those early LPs) or from HD Tracks, we go back to the retailer, and they eat it to keep our business. (Only my mother returned records to Jack because the music was "horrible," and he was always very gracious about refunding her $3.98 while we kids hunkered down in the Oldsmobile station wagon, embarassed beyond measure.)
It's all relative. To those of us who walked five miles in the snow up hill both ways to school, it's all good.

This am, I picked up this title from 2013 w/ the "Snoopy Dog House" prop.
I own several CD copies, but not this one, until today!
