Random Record Pick is a way to organize and archive an always-growing collection of vinyl records. Each record is randomly picked from a shelf or crate or dusty corner of my house, a photo is taken of the cover, and then the entire record is played all the way through, even if it’s terrible.
Songwriting, home recording and vinyl records from Chicago folk singer and songwriter Andrew Francis.
