Here at THE VINYL DISTRICTwe're good consumers. All Mp3's are posted to promote and give exposure to the music and are linked for a limited time. Please download to preview, then head promptly to your local vinyl vendor (or - OK, CD store too) and fork over your hard earned cash. You'll appreciate the piece of mind.

I stumbled upon something in yesterday's ramble that I'd like to pursue today--almost the inverse operation of our discussion. Do these Cole Porter compositions from the 1930's and '40's sound remotely contemporary to today's ears with the sense of timelessness that we've been discussing? And if so, do they in a manner that doesn't approach kitsch in the way The Stray Cats or Big Bad Voodoo Daddy do, for example? Is there a post punk or new wave sensibility at work here whatsoever? Or, dare I even say it - goth? Hm.
