Pretentious Record Store Guy’s Favorite Records of the Summer
Posted by Carlos Gabriel Ruiz on October 10th, 2008How did you spend your summer? Pretentious Record Store Guy spent his holed up in a cabin in Minnesota writing new material for his upcoming album that may or may not be released depending on how the legal situation stacks up with his former band mates, road crew, roadies, former manager and the Swedish model who may or may not have had his baby in the Spring. Needless to say, it was quite an adventurous summer. To keep his mind off of his legal woes and to procrastinate in between bouts of writer’s block, he listened to a whole bunch of new records. These are only the tip of the iceberg in what we like to call Pretentious Record Store Guy’s Favorite Records of the Summer. What an Indian summer, indeed…
