NORTON BLASTS & NEW WAX • AUTUMN 2013

Ring, ring goes the bell-- and new Norton releases are IN SESSION! We're nearing the one year mark since Sandy and have a lot of reasons to celebrate-- we're doing so by releasing some our greatest records ever, and we have blasts going all fall long- it's an autumn almanac for… the record books! Before digging in, two big news bits--Grand Theft Auto 5 has just been released, and features a Norton track -- Hasil Adkins' GET OUT OF THE CAR … and… the New Surfsiders have been featured onbeachboys.com!!! With these stellar moments in mind, come aboard the Norton train for one wild, wild ride! Also be sure to check our non-Norton records on the Norton website- we have just added several hundred single copy out of print and hard to find LP's and 45s. Use the pull down menu for VINYL and rev up!
