My friend Bill has started a new company up in NYC called New Scratch Records and I suggest you check it out. There are a handful of rarities for sale over there that you might enjoy if you like Lucero, Arcade Fire or The White Stripes.
Most notable are the Lucero documentary made by Andrew Leggett and the Red 40 discography which is Ben Nichols’ (of Lucero) old punk band from Little Rock, AR. You can also find some sweet 7″s and EPs that are definitely not for sale at Best Buy.
Help him out and hook yourself up at the same time. For a limited time only, I believe he is french kissing every CD for your added pleasure. Plus he doesn’t charge for shipping. What a guy.

I just ordered some vinyl from New Scratch and Bill sent me a personalized “Thanks for the order” email. I only met him once at the Cactus Club in Milwaukee a couple years ago. What a memory on that guy.
