Man I haven't brought a ThriftStoreGems to the masses in a minute but this one is kind of special for me. While I was converting these it brought me back to the time when I worked at a store called The Nature Company back in the late 80s. What was so cool about this store was that this was a store that was like a dream come true for a grown up. The artists I will be showcasing will be acoustic guitarist Govi, new age/electronic group Tangerine Dream, and folk/pop artist James Taylor.

These 3 cassettes LPs I converted makes me think of a time when began the road of truly seeing myself as my Creator sees me. I met and worked with cool people, worked in a place where being surrounded by nice music, astronomy, nature, learning about rocks and minerals...it was like heaven. I have to admit I screwed up the job because I wore my emotions on my sleeves when it came to my manager/boss and in the end it was my undoing. But the time I was there I learned that it was truly cool to like science and nature and working in that type of environment I met people that conversation was warm, informing, challenging, and made you seek to do better with your life.

Cassette LP that will be showcases will be...
James Taylor-That's Why I'm Here
Govi-Heart Of a Gypsy
Tangerine Dream-Canyon Dreams

Find you a cool place to chill for the evening, light some candles, kick back, relax and enjoy.
