Heart of a Punk Soul of a Rasta

It's that time again! But remember people RECORD STORES or RECORD SHOPS are not just for Christmas. Here is a list of the most important exclusive content being flogged off at your independent record SHOP on Record Store Day. I urgently beseech you NOT TO, I mean DO NOT, I repeat DON'T even think of buying any of these items at the SHOP I will be visiting on Record Store Day.

And this goes out to all of you out there who will be queuing up to buy this exclusive stuff to then sell on Ebay later, beware this year I have employed a crack panel: 1 Toothless Crone, 1 Romany Gypsy, 1 Druid, 1 Voodoo High priest and the worlds leading HEX Merchant who must remain unnamed. Yeah it's John. They will be working throughout RECORD STORE DAY to bring POX to all those who'll iniquitously seek to profit from the day - other than hat enjoy. REMEMBER don't buy any of these items from the shop I'm going to. Thank you.
