Playback: An ode to record shops and the music community

article image placeholderPlayback
Playback walking in, falling into rhythm of the Velvet Underground loafi gold tarnished bliss reading with my fingertips paperboard pulp for ridges and slapping planes, tucking spirals of lacquer sleeves, getting physical stacks nestling my chest cradled in plywood bins, keeping the weight, even breathing in the mildew history and fresh ink of a new release, grabbing another for the stack instead of lunch stomach of adrenaline for the coveted oxytocin playback of a forgotten record of a time making time to feast on cover art for tactile, hand eye tracing from outer to inner rotation, tapping every genre in this democracy, this community, the Shop is an album of transcendent tracks, not a cap ballist exchange, but voices independently
