Newest CD Purchase

While running a bunch of errands Saturday, Val and I stopped at New World Record at Delaware and Hertel, which is sadly in the midst of its closing sale.
Currently, all CDs, DVDs and most other items are 30 percent off; I then noticed that there is a new Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds' CD out, "Dig!!! Lazarus Dig!!!" on Anti Records, so I bought a copy. With the discount, the price was a ridiculously good $11.89 plus tax.
We got to talk to New World Record owner Govindan Kartha, who Val and I have been friends with for about 20 years, and he seems both a bit tired and resigned to the closing after years of hard work and commitment, and happy and optimistic as he looks toward the future and new opportunities. He was the happiest of the 30 minutes or so we talked with him when his wife, Elizabeth Eisenhower, and his daughter, Asha, came into the store.
We will no doubt have more on New World Record here soon.
