HUSKER DU - Early 7's 80-84 w Spot's Arcade Boot LP 84

REPOST Request and ADD ON:  While the request was only for the album, I took the opportunity to give fresh rips to my seven inch singles collection.   Husker Du will always be special to this blog because it was the collection of First Avenue touring band vinyl that I raided at Cheapo Vinyl store in St. Paul one day while out of work in 2008 or so that Grant Hart (R.I.P.) the clerk had helped stock over years.  I was taking the bus downtown from a suburb bordering the city and finding cool record stores also in the early days such as Northern Lights when it was on the old 'hooker' crawling Block E but also found Cheapo for the first time and I forget the name but another store later called 'Urban Lights' that Husker Du used to practice in the basement in the early days of our MPLS/ST PAUL scene.

On a sadder note, Greg Norton the flying bass player caught gall bladder cancer so here is a link if you want to help him cover some expenses but looks like he already met his goal but more helps:

Cool, thanks...I got most of them on vinyl as I think it's one of the first US band I was really into some years ago...

SWEEEEET! I still say METAL CIRCUS, though short, is perhaps what switched me over to punk over metal during the 80's.

Great post, thanks!!!
