Record Store Day has lots of special releases to entice people into the stores! (…although sadly some people just buy them and then go home and post the limited release vinyl on Ebay for triple the price after standing in line from 5am to 7:30 when the store opens. Ugh.)

A variety of different coloured vinyl records

The Tubuloids seven inch! This Wave Sucks. Seen for real in a real record store.

“The Tubuloids are a Vancouver, BC-based surf punk band known for their high-energy, beach-themed punk rock. Often associated with the Canadian skate rock scene, the group features members including Bitchin Kahuna Baxter (vocals/guitar), Rob the Ripper (guitar/effects), Big Wave Dave (bass), and Truckin Teddy (percussion).” stolen from AI

On June 24 1970, The Kinks played Winnipeg at the Centennial Concert Hall. Winnipeg band The Justin Thyme opened for them. Produced by C.F.R.W. (which has been at 1290 AM from at least the early 80’s)

CFRW radio used to be at 1470 on the AM? James A Millican brings you the Top 30?
