Checkered Records

Hello internets, I just got a nice email and some rad pics from Tim who hails from Forest, Virginia.  I will leave the back story of this display to the creator, but I just wanted to get my two cents in the there before I let him take over..  This checkered record frame style is something I’ve had in mind for sometime, but have yet to try it out myself.  I think it works really well, and gives the records that much more space to stand out individually as works of art.  And the story below makes the display that much better..

“The framed poster on the left is a reduced version of the promotional poster for the rock band I played in during my college years (1975 – 1979).  I was the drummer.  We played clubs, college dances, small concerts, etc. in the Virginia, and Washington DC area.  Our sets included about 25% original compositions and about 75% covers of other groups’ songs.  The 20 albums in the arrangement each contain at least one of the cover songs we played.  Lots of memories.”

Thanks for sharing, Tim.  And I have to commend you and the other members of AFTERMASS on your choice of bands to cover.  Awesome!  I’m sure you did Neil Peart justice.  Cheers, Steve
