Switched At Birth (or resale)

A couple of weeks ago I made good use of Housing Works' Open Air Street Fair, where they took over Crosby Street to sell thousands of books, CDs, records and clothing to raise money for AIDS research. They had vinyls at 5 for $1. You know I spent like an hour there.

In addition to a 1970s 4-album set of "Learn French In Six Weeks," I also got this little gem, "Introduction To Jazz." Jazz and I are already good friends but I thought I'd get the formal introduction anyway.

I took it out for a spin last week.





But lo, when I took out the record, 'twas not the corresponding vinyl. What!


It was "Rock 'N' Roll Dance Party" !!!


Still gorgeous and dusty like I like it.


Groovy. I popped that sucker on and it is fabulous... just great old songs to boogie to. I wanted to invite people over just to do the Twist with me.





It kind of made me feel like a teenager having a party in her parents' den and waiting to play Spin The Bottle. Very "Are You There God? It's Me, Jenna."


It was by far the best case of mistaken identity I've ever had.
