Evan. Don't ask me why this hit me just now. Do you know how many years you've been spinning records? I mean, I know you know, but wow, jeez.

NYC pre-Internet still had a centralized Downtown. Nowadays there is technically a “Downtown” but now it’s all tourist places.

Yes, this! Audience would stay for wildly different acts! I truly miss that sort of variety.

Wondering who is who on the record jacket for Too Many Creeps/You Can't be Funky (possibly the best 7" ever).

I remember first hearing it (Creeps) at Second Time Around (Indpls record store) as a mere pre-teen. Arresting.

This is definitely a #1 hit!

Though Snakes Crawl really should be just as big a hit.
