Good morning gang and welcome to the Independence Day edition of Stuck In The Vinyl Again . Today we take off work and gather with our friends and family to grill hot dogs and hamburgers, lounge by pools and wish one another a "Happy 4th", all in anticipation of fireworks come dark, that terrify everyone's pets.
