Hal Benoit

Patrick — Tue, 11 Mar 2008 13:32:00 +0000

A long-time friend of Turn It Up!, Hal Benoit, died last Saturday. Hal and his children visited our Northampton shop almost every day until Hal moved to Nashville a couple years ago. He visited us again, sadly for the last time, when he was in town recently. Hal was a great musician and a great guy. Our thoughts and prayers are with Hal and his family.

INDIE VINYL RULES

Turn It Up! — Thu, 24 Jan 2008 15:30:00 +0000

The time is now for customers searching for brand new vinyl at Turn It Up. You really can't help but noticed The Dropkick Murphys and Steve Malkmus displayed in the window of our Keene store. It just makes these cold winter mornings seem all the more rewarding. And our locations in Northampton and Brattleboro are selling mint titles such as Nirvana's Bleach, The Dirty Three and Okkervil River like it's no one's business. If you're not already psyched to walk through our doors to hear Cat Power's latest CD, indulge in the alternative sound of your favorite indie band on a 33-1/3. And remember, just because you don't see it doesn't mean we can't find it for you. We perform magic on a daily basis.

Damon Albarn is smart!

Turn It Up! — Sun, 30 Dec 2007 16:00:00 +0000

Ian says check this quote out:
"It's your own private library, where you go to listen to music, learn about it, exchange ideas about it and be inspired by it. I think record shops will outlive the music industry as we know it because in the long term their value to people is far greater, because even in our era of file-sharing and blogs and all that bull----, you can't actually replace that look on someone's face when you're playing something they really rate and think you should listen to. It's Special."
-Damon Albarn (Blur, Gorillaz, The Good The Bad and The Queen)on independent record shops
Also, you should check out the new Gorillaz album "D-sides". It's great!

Ghost Rider And Van Halen: awesome

Turn It Up! — Sat, 24 Nov 2007 22:11:00 +0000

Hey everybody!
We recently discovered that there is a new anomaly in the rock/ movie synchronization world:
like playing "Dark Side of The Moon" and "Wizard of Oz", simultaneously playing "Van Halen" By Van Halen and "Ghost Rider" results in mind-bending, skull a-flaming, visual/audio similarities.
Far Out!
Also:
Don't forget about our HUGE 12th Anniversary Sale. It's going to be one for the record books, with huge discounts, mad give-aways and other incredible things. It will be a day remembered forever in the hallowed halls of record shop history.

We've re-stocked the classics, picked up some new stuff, and loaded up on candy for trick-or-treaters! TIU Keene also recently received new posters, pins, patches, and stickers! There may not be a better day to visit us.

So stop by this Saturday to help us ROCK Pumpkin Fest and help Keene break that "Lit Jack-O-Lantern" record once again!! Boston beat us last year with 30,128. Let's do it! It's gonna be a BLAST!
