SIGN ON THE WINDOW

CULTURE SHOCK:

Walking around Harvard Square last week it was like a trap door opening beneath me to discover the hollowed out space where Wordsworth's used to be. 28 years. Where will tomorrow's movie critics come from? Then, on a routine trip to Davis Square, the sign on Disc Diggers announces it's closing December 30th, leaping up onto the web. We got out JUST IN TIME...

Picked up a few new discs at CD Willys yesterday after getting Moses his Cub Scout uniform. Very handy, Will had a bunch of toys set out for the boys to fiddle with while Dad flipped through the stacks:

Buddy Miller YOUR LOVE AND OTHER LIES (Hightone)
Fiona Apple TIDAL (Clean Slate)
The Knitters POOR LITTLE CRITTER ON THE ROAD (Slash)
Brahms SEXTET, HORN TRIO [Serkin, Marlboro players] (Sony) [iTunes doesn't list this one, but this is a classic.]
