I usually plan my Record Store Day itinerary weeks in advance — sometimes even traveling across state lines — but this year, I admit, it snuck up on me a bit. Thus, I went through most of a normal Saturday, figuring I’d sit this one out. Yet, I’m thrilled to report I made it to
@rediscover_records in nearby Elgin just under the wire, when my brilliant and beautiful wife voiced how silly it would be if I didn’t visit at least one shop on my favorite day of the year.
Had to snag
@thejayhawksofficial ’s Dutch sessions from 1997-2000. Incredible performances from an all-time favorite band of mine.
Thanks to shop owner
@rwagnerful for all he does! I’ve known him long enough to remember when his “store” was just the backroom of an antique shop. So glad to see Rediscover’s growth and how it’s become such a part of the Fox Valley arts community. 🏆
