We looooove us some sultry folk rock from Jersey Girl Nicole Atkins, whose new LP Mondo Amore just came out earlier this week. (Have we mentioned that she’s from the same town as TVD Jon? At least, today?)
As part of our Eleven Weeks of Record Store Day Vinyl Giveaways, we’re counting down to April 16th, Record Store Day, with at least one vinyl giveaway each week, and we’ve got a copy of Mondo Amore that should be in your grubby little hands.
Nicole Atkins recently went record shopping with us at Tropicalia in Furs in NYC. To enter to win the contest, simply comment below, what is the your best vinyl shopping find, and why. The contest ends in one week on Thurs 2/17.

I’ll start with this confession: My best vinyl find was at the DC Record Fair last summer, where I found a mint copy of Andy Gibb’s Flowing Rivers. It is also by far the most ridiculous record I have in my collection, but I gasped when I saw it because my mom used to play this record when I was a very small child, and I used to twirl around to Gibb’s angsty “I Just Want to Be Your Everything.” This is my first memory of records.
Maybe you’ll find your “best find” at this weekend’s DC Record Fair…
