From The Desk Of Marshall Crenshaw: Thorens TD124

MarshallCrenshawLogo Marshall Crenshaw certainly knows how the music business works—or, in the case of many artists, doesn’t work. But Crenshaw is now waving goodbye to the traditional system, as the platinum-selling Grammy and Golden Globe nominee has decided to ditch the middle man and put out an EP subscription vinyl/download series. Thanks to a successful Kickstarter campaign, Crenshaw will be releasing six 10-inch, three-track 45s within the next two years. The first one, I Don’t See You Laughing Now, was issued last month. Crenshaw will also be guest editing magnetmagazine.com all week.

Crenshaw: I had one of these for many years, but I traded it in 2005 for a different turntable. (D’oh!) Now I’ve just gotten another one. This is the turntable if, like me, you have 33s, 45s and 78s.
