@J-IV nice I need to track this one down
-
Every time I play this I say to myself, I need to play this more
-
@Aetas both great albums!
-
One of my students just started collecting records. We bonded over metal bands and he came in excited telling me he just got his first records.
So, I went through my collection and found some duplicates I had to bring him to add to his collection and expand his musical mind!
Can't go wrong with the classics!
In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

This is "slow clap" worthy -
@Mizmazzle you may have just enabled another vinyl addict among us. More the merrier!

@Mizmazzle Love the way you educate!

@SKT @Aetas @GraemeE @J-IV
when I was in high school I was super checked out. Only cared about my skateboard and punk rock. I slept everyday in school and was uninterested. I had an English teacher that took the time to make me this tape with some cool bands on in like The Replacements and Minutemen. Bands that were new to me at the time. He tried to connect with me and engage me at my interest level.I didn’t change my behavior much. And it took me another 5-7 years to start getting my head out of my ass…but what the teacher did left an impression on me and even though it took a very long time for the seed he planted to grow, he shaped my future teacher mindset.
By the way, my student who got the records was the most stoked on the Sabbath record…as I figured he would be…kid has great taste already!

@Mizmazzle said in Wax Treasure (Vinyl):

Might need to look the other way if he comes back from lunch with bloodshot eyes.....

@GraemeE it’s funny you mention that. Haha. Today I came back to my classroom and there were about 6 boys up to no good kinda goofing off and acting way too odd. I came out of my room about ten minutes later and they were gone but it reeked like weed. Pretty disturbing really.

@Mizmazzle damnit - my whimsical abstract is much less fun when the reality of devoping brains on drugs is a real life scenario
-
@Mizmazzle I feel and I appreciate you sharing that. Seeds tend take time to grow and bear fruit. Good teachers like you are a cornerstone of our community.
That haul would keep me busy for a couple of months if I was your student. Thin Lizzy at his age would blow my mind
-
@GraemeE haha. Naw man. The kid I brought the records to would have the good sense to wait until he was in high school at least and further not smoke refer in the fucking hallway of a middle school. Jesus.
Lord knows I didn’t make the best choices with my early experimentation in the school setting.

@Mizmazzle love this (the backstory and the present action)! Just wondering if your teacher ever got to hear how his seed grew.
