RickF axiomite Registered: 02/26/05 Posts: 5210 Loc: Vero Beach, Florida	I have really liked these guys every since I bought my first Black Keys disc (Chulahoma) about 5 or 6 years ago and now have all of their albums, I came across this CBS Sunday Morning clip from the CBS News website and thought I'd share with y'all. Pretty cool... No longer the under dogs _________________________ Rick Our Room

Cork old hand Registered: 03/19/10 Posts: 72 Loc: Pennsylvania, US	My son got me El Camino for my birthday a month back and I like it a lot too. He mentioned that it's the most staight-up rock of their releases and I'd like the others more; so I'll be sampling another soon. Any recos for the 2nd one?

Murph axiomite Registered: 10/05/06 Posts: 6201 Loc: PEI, Canada	Agreed Rick. I've been listening to the Black Keys since the early days, I can't remember which album I started with but I went back and bought the predecessors shortly after. What I find funny is the kids who are loving them now and keep referring to them as "this new band..." Oh Crap! I'm old. Somebody could have freakin warned me this might happen. _________________________ I'm Riffing. People usually stop me when I'm riffing. Or carry on without me. That's also an option.

It's a double LP set run at 45rpm for even better dynamics than the "standard" edition. I urge you to pick up a copy if you have the opportunity and are still spinning LPs. This is a band that really gives a damn about sound quality and it shows!

Andrew Axiom Engineer veteran Registered: 12/18/01 Posts: 139	It was a limited release, so best bet would be to check with any local stores listed at the following link: http://www.recordstoreday.com/Venues?country=Canada Good luck!
