Okay. After reading a thread the other day about Alabama Shakes, I went and bought the "Boys and Girls" release on vinyl. I don't get the hype (everyone seemed to like them). To me, they sound like 10,000 other bands trying to make it in the business today. This one is going out as a Karma to anyone interested. Just mention what you spin vinyl on and you're in. The dog will select the winner at midnight on Sunday (don't ask, it's a complicated process!!!!).
If you can't hear a difference, don't waste your money.

    I wouldn't call them a southern rock band and no, they are nothing like RC Band.

    Congrats Dabutcher, the dog has spoken, she chose you to recieve the Alabama Shakes LP. I sent you a PM for particulars. There is also a 45rpm record and a free digital download certificate included with the album. I hope you like it. Like I said in my OP, I didn't care for it at all but a lot of folks seem to like them. Enjoy.
