Look what just came in: a new 3-LP Deep Purple album set called "A Fire In The Sky: A Career-Spanning Collection." Am I excited? Damn straight! I can't decide whether to sell it in my store or to keep it! Not only does it have the mega-hits, but it's got the minor hits AND a number of songs I've never even heard or heard of -- and I own most DP albums. What a great collector's album! Tell me friends -- should I sell it or keep it? Leave advice please! Thanks. #music #vinyl #vinylrecords #deeppurple #hardrock #classicrock #afireinthesky #smokeonthewater #highwaystar #analogmusic #vinyladdicts #vinylcollector #recordcollector #vinylcollection #vinyllove #shouldikeeporsell #deeppurplefans #scottsmusicshak

How about some Flora Purim today? Nothing like some cool Latin jazz fusion. I loved her first two albums with Chick Corea and Return To Forever, but I also love her solo work. #music #vinyl #vinylrecords #flora #florapurim #latinmusic #jazz #jazzfusion #latinjazzfusion #latinjazz #florapurimvocal #vinylcollection #vinyllove #vinyladdict #analogmusic #vinyllp #vinyladdicts #vinylcollector #scottsmusicshak

Ministry's early stuff, including classic "Everyday Is Halloween." Great pre-industrial stuff. #music #ministry #everydayishalloween #goth #gothic #gothmusic #industrial #cassettes #analog #scottsmusicshak

One of my favorite albums of all time: Pink Floyd's Animals, in a reissued, remastered 180 Gram format. Hard to go wrong with this album. #music #vinyl #vinylrecords #happy #pinkfloyd #pinkfloydanimals #pinkfloydfans #follow #progrock #vinyllp #vinyllove #vinyladdicts #love #lovethisalbum #vinylcollector #vinylrevival #vinylcollection #analogmusic #davemason #rogerwaters #vinylrecord #scottsmusicshak

The Beach Boys Rarities album. An unusual album. It has a Beatles cover & "The Lord's Prayer" & "Auld Lang Syne," among other interesting song choices. Worth a listen. #music #vinyl #vinylrecords #thebeachboys #thebeachboysrarities #surfmusic #eclecticmusic #followme #vinyladdicts #vinyllove #follow #vinyllp #vinylcollector #repost #happy #vinylrevival #vinyllovers #beachboyfans #forsale #scottsmusicshak

One of Gary Numan's lesser known albums, but one I like a lot: Jagged! #music #cds #cdcollection #garynuman #garynumanfan #garynumanfans #garynumanjagged #industrial #gothrock #cdcomeback #scottsmusicshak

I've been a Within Temptation fan for years & I've been in a symphonic metal phase lately. I like a lot of these groups & I think WT's Sharon has an amazing voice. And I love this concert album & film! #symphonicmetal #metal @wtofficial @withintemptationdaily @withintemptationfans #withintemptation #withintemptationfan #withintemptationfans #symphonicmetalfans #music #letusburn #whativebeenlisteningto #scottsmusicshak

Orpik’s OT goal leads Penguins to series win over Islanders

Posted by Scott Holstad on May 12, 2013

Orpik’s OT goal leads Penguins to series win over Islanders

via Pittsburgh Penguins vs. New York Islanders – Recap – May 11, 2013 – ESPN.

Even though the Pens were outshot 38-21, we found a way to win the game and win the series and it’s awesome. I’m so happy. Of course, now we have to go face a hot Ottawa team, but I’ll think about that tomorrow. Today I want to just think about making it out of the first round, of getting out of a really hard series and of coming through when it counted. This was only Orpik’s 12th goal in 9 seasons. What a remarkable story. Go Pens!
