What's Spinning

[TrainFan73]

 

[EarWax]

The Charlie Watts Quintet “Warm and Tender”. Digging deep into my CDS. American standards featuring Bernard Fowler, who sings backup on Stones tours. Lovely.

Feist - Let It Die [125/268]
VMP Essentials RotM
Seafoam Green vinyl



Might be late starting my 4 days off, but I'm glad it's with this gem.

Johnny Griffin ‎– A Blowing Session (Blue Note, 2017 VMP 45RPM coloured pressing)

One of my favourites, this record absolutely slaps from start to finish. Just pure magic!

 

[Poly-Rythmo]

My collection #262

Rymden - Reflections and Odysseys

My one signed record. Pianist Bugge Wesseltoft teams up with the rhythm section of EST. It's very good, and they're even better live.

 

[Rip_City]

Terekke - Improvisational Loops [126/268]
Music From Memory



Some spacey ambient.

 

[Jmcg85]

I installed some LED strip lights above the kitchen cabinets today. Change colours & sequences etc. Its quite cool. You can really set the mood in here

 

[Jmcg85]

LL Cool J - All World
I own a few LL albums on vinyl and hope some day to have them all but for now this compilation along with some 12" singles I got missing off this set will do just fine 2nd hand cheap you can see the ring wear on the cover but spins perfect

Kishi Bashi - Omoiyari [127/268]
White vinyl



My #4 from last year. Glad to see him last year with my father. His music is just what we need in this time of uncertainty.

The White Stripes - De Stijl
Third Man reissue (2010)

 

[Selaws]

Larry Young - Larry Young In Paris: The ORTF Recordings (Resonance Records, 2016 limited, hand-numbered pressing 1938/2000)

This has pretty much cemented my aim to pick up any future release from Resonance Records. The quality is just phenominal. I picked this up sealed for around £25 inc postage from discogs (which is the average) and it includes 2 fantastic records of unreleased music, a comprehensive 12x12 book with never before seen photos, 6 high-quality postcard prints, and a download code. The value is just incredible. The book is itself worth the money, with detailed information on how the recordings were obtained, the history behind them, and interviews with Youngs son, John McLaughlin, Dr. Lonnie Smith, John Medeski, Bill Laswell, Nathan Davis, Andre Francis, producer Zev Feldman, & Woody Shaw III. Its just a phenomenal package and one that I wouldn't of been surprised to have a much much higher price tag.

 

[Renée]

Black Sabbath - Paranoid (1970)

 

[ranbalam]

 

[MadLucas]

 

[D Jilla]

The Mountain Goats - All Hail West Texas
Merge (2013)

 

[Turbo]

Blue Monday, spin #4

 

[Rip_City]

Nirvana - MTV Unplugged in New York [128/268]



I may only have the single LP reissue, and it may have some slight 'woosh' is the left channel, but it sounds incredible otherwise.

 

[Renée]

DC Talk - Jesus Freak (1995, reissue 2015)

The definitive CCM classic. When Christian music embraced hip-hop and grunge. Got to see a mini reunion of these guys at Uprise Fest a few years back when TobyMac came out and performed the title track with Newsboys. Great record!

The agutierrezb 2019 record collection challenge

So I've decided to embark on my own personal challenge, which consists of listening every record in my collection before the end of the year. My record collection is not that big -only ~250-, but I still feel like there are a bunch of records I don't give enough attention to, while still adding more titles to my shelves.

For this reason I've set a couple of rules in order to play every record at least once before December 31st: I'll play at least one record a day, going from front to back in the way I have them sorted in my shelf. I can play a different record (i.e. Not the next one in alphabetical order) if I feel like listening to something else in any given moment, but at least one of the records I spin in the day has to be the LP in turn.

I didn't take pictures for the first two days, but I'll try to document the process from here on, so I'll be posting daily on this thread. Wish me luck!

#191: Wes Montgomery - Impressions

#192: Enrique Morente - Negra, si tu supieras



Flamenco fusion album by one of my favorite artists in the genre. It's not his best record IMO, but his passionate delivery and unique voice is enough to make this a great listen. I'm looking forward to adding more of his albums to my shelves, but they're not very easy to get outside of Spain, and the resale price on some of these on Discogs is crazy.

Togashi Beirach-Freedom Joy , mostly drum/piano duets from the Japanese master and the New Yorker Beirach recorded beautifully in concert 1997.
