LRS Update

Hey everyone.
Record Stores are not on the “essential business” list.
We closed up our shop on Tuesday March 17 to follow the stay at home order.

After about a week of doing nothing much, we decided to ramp up our mail order business !
Our main concern is everyone’s health, so currently only 4 of us work at the store, and only one of us at a time.
We are hand-washin’, surface wipin’, glove wearin’ fools.
I have new respect for folks that wear gloves at work.
It certainly keeps you from touching your face!

Here I am practicing safe record handling at my gig at KRCB-FM:

Fortunately, NPR stations, along with many other media outlets, are considered an “essential business”.
So, Grandpa Doug is still a DJ…

We have an online store through DISCOGS
We use Discogs to offer some pretty obscure records to the world.
It’s certainly worth a look-see.
Currently, we have over 4000 listings on Discogs.

We also have a Seller’s Store on AMAZON.COM
Over 5000 listings, mostly CDs, some good deals for sure.

You can contact us with questions about our online shops, or any requests through the electronic mail at lastrecordstore@sonic.net
We can get orders out to you fairly fast: USPS First Class for CDs, and Media Mail for LPs.
We are using the glove wearing, sanitized protocol when handling orders.
We are also going to catch up on New Releases, so if you want something, give us a try.

Finally, we would like to offer our LRS Gift Certificates.
We can mail these out, or hold on file at the store. You pick.

Buy a Gift Certificate
When we eventually open up the store for business, we will have a whopping store-wide sale!

Thanks for your support over the years.
Stay healthy. Social distance. Wash your hands.
See you soon,
Doug, Hoyt, Ethan, Gerry, Cassie and Estefany
Your Last Record Store

Sarah Baker + Women Sing Waits + a Christmas Miracle

One of my favorite people in the whole wide world is Sarah Baker.
Besides being a world class human being, she is a tremendous musician.
Sarah is a fantastic pianist, a great songwriter, and a soulful vocalist.
There’s great news: Sarah has released a new album, "Baker’s Dozen."
We have it on CD for only ten bucks, and I totally recommend it.
Music is the tonic we need to stay healthy and focused in these challenging times,
and this new album lovingly co-produced by Sarah and Allen Sudduth is a great soundtrack for 2020.
Call us and make sure we haven’t sold out (they have been selling well!) we can put one on hold for you.

Sarah’s previous album, "Maybe Someday" was released in 1997.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Good news : we have gotten more copies of the new Tom Waits tribute album, "Come On Up To The House: Women Sing Waits"
back in stock on CD and LP. It’s a wonderful project conceived by musician/author/producer, Warren Zanes.
If you’re old enough to remember the 1980’s Warren had a cool band called The Del Fuegos. We sold their records.
Anyhoo, the new album is great. It is a unique compilation full of fresh interpretations of songs by the legendary Tom Waits. Aimee Mann, Joseph, Patty Griffin, Rosanne Cash, Phoebe Bridgers, Corinne Bailey Rae, Angie McMahon, Courtney Marie Andrews, and more each put their own unique spin on the gravel-voiced songwriter’s work.
producer Warren Zanes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

One of the great things that happened in the 2010’s was the SF Giants finally won the World Series!
Whether you’re a Giants fan or an Athletic supporter, you had to like Tim Lincecum, right?

On November 2, 2010 the San Francisco Giants led by Tim Lincecum did something that previous Giants teams could not do.
All the great players of the past: Mays, Marichal, McCovey, Bonds, Mitchell and more could not bring a trophy home to San Francisco.

That’s why we are so honored and humble to share with you our Christmas miracle.

It happened on Christmas Eve just 5 days ago.

See You On The Avenue
