May vinyl challenge day 28: new old discovery. One of my favorite things about collecting vinyl and obsessing over music in general is finding things that are new to me even if they’re very familiar to others. Case in point, I only very recently started listening beyond the big Ozzy years of Black Sabbath to hear the Dio years, and god this is a fantastic record. Obvious to some, new to me.
