Hello…and welcome to JT’s ‘quick and easy’ blogathon… in which he tells, in no particular order, what grimy secondhand vinyl albums he picked up on a shopping expedition in Rio de Janeiro today. Yes, we know he’s a loser alright, when he could have been working on his steps at samba school or hiking Sugarloaf mountain, cruising for trade on Ipanema Beach or at least checking out the local PTA, our hero spent the day in the dingy cellars of Rio’s secondhand record world, all so there’s something fresh for the band’s dressing room on the last remaining tour dates of the year. “I cannot hear ‘Aladdin Sane’ one more time!” he was heard screaming as he ran to smash his favourite slot machine… sorry, as he ran from the backstage shmooze room last night. Let’s hope this new lot of priceless artifacts makes for good karma!
