WE HEART MUSIC @ RECORD EXCHANGE: WANDA JACKSON’S PARTY AIN’T OVER!

ON SALE FOR $12.99! BUY HERE
VINYL ($18.99) AVAILABLE HERE

If you think Jack White’s given 73-year-old Wanda Jackson a new lease of life, then think again; she’s been kicking up a hot fuss since she ditched that Elvis fella in the mid-’50s.

Tearing through a set of cross-generational standards – from the calypso croon of ‘Rum And Coca Cola’ to outlaw country classic ‘Busted’ and Amy Winehouse’s raunch-fest ‘You Know I’m No Good’, her distinctive squeak’n’growl vocals triumph over White’s unnecessarily embellished, frenetic production and glide across the giddy ‘Thunder On the Mountain’. When Jack finally reins it in on the stripped-back ‘Blue Yodel #6’, it results in the record’s finest and purest moment.NME

IN THE RECORD EXCHANGE GIFT SHOP: SEXY ADULT VALENTINE’S DAY FUN!

The Record Exchange Gift Shop ain’t Hallmark. We think that’s pretty evident, but if you’re looking for more evidence, look no further than our collection of sexy Valentine’s Day gifts.

Kama Sutra: In addition to a handy pocket-size version of the book, we have Stimulating Gel and the equally stimulating Getaway Kit.

Games: There’s something for all persuasions and pursuits, including the Fantasy Sex Deck, Truth or Dare: A Game of Passion, Naughty Crosswords, the Gay Sex Deck and Furry Handcuffs.

Books: Cheeky literature abounds, including The Sexy Book of Sexy Sex and Love Sick: A Smoldering Look at Love, Lust and Marriage.

Does it always have to be about sex? Of course not. Read our previous Valentine’s Day post if you’re looking for something a little less blush-inducing.

Now let’s take a look at some of the sassy, sweet and silly stuff in the freshly-stocked Record Exchange Gift Shop.

If you’re thinking silly, there’s Grow a Boyfriend/Grow a Girlfriend, the Love Rat, the Love Gun and a good old-fashioned voodoo doll.
