The Real Congregation :: The Full Twelve Inches (Part One) :: 02/28/12

After a gradual build, The Real Congregation (partially) completes their vinyl trilogy this week with a focus on the full monty: all twelve inches. (Records, of course). But since there’s just so many great records in the world, Marc & Nicole were unable to fit it all of these vinyl goodies comfortably into one more episode, so this is simply part one of this last installment… making it more of a “quadrilogy”, really.

So, can you handle it? We worked you in slowly with seven and ten inches, but now you’ll have to hang with twelve inches for two full weeks. We have faith in you, folks. You’re strong. You can take it.

All of these tracks were lovingly transferred from The Real Congregation’s own archives, so get ready for crackles, pops, end-of-side noise, as well as hearing Marc & Nicole sipping on the best wine that their local pharmacy has to offer!
