Day 6 - Box Set 2
Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band - Live 75-85

I don't ever play this one so I figured it would fit well. This was given to me in perfect shape except it is missing one of five discs. Went with the first one and it is great. There's a good cover of Waits' Jersey Girl at the end of the box.

Day 15

Metal has always been mood music for me. I had a day that just amped up until the second I walked out the door an hour and a half past my “finish” time - I’m a salaried manager at a hospital my “hours” mean very little to anyone.

It does remove me from my head from time to time and the lyrics to the first track here also seem apropos of today’s theme:

She told me why
She told me lies
I always take care of this
I told her how
I've always stayed
Always waited for nothing
When I get out of here
Will I leave you behind?
I found that the years passed despite
When I get out of here
Will I leave you behind?
I found that the years passed despite
And I can see you
Running through the fields of sorrow
Yes I can see you
Running through the fields of sorrow
When you get out of here
When you leave me behind
You find that the years…

Day 16: “Born in the USA”- records by artists from the ...USA.

After @Yer Ol' Uncle D 's post I'll have to consider this American enough ;) --a well-worn copy of The Beach Boys – Surf’s Up

Easily my most-listened-to Beach Boys album, with Disney Girls and Feel Flows about as good as it gets as far as I’m concerned.

WARNING: Super Long Post haha

I've started listening to the Childish Gambino - Because the Internet Dissect podcast this week and have been listening to his music a ton as a result, so I'm going to do a two for one on Childish today. One catch up day and today's.


Day 4: “And now for something completely different..” ..any Record you like but with a piece of music related memorabilia to accompany it ...a gig ticket, book, t shirt , poster, funkopops.. what’s lurking out there ..autographs? Elvis’s Cadillac..yellow submarine ....

Childish Gambino - Because the Internet

A hard to get record that is signed and a ticket to the show?! I explain how I got so lucky in the IG post.

Childish Gambino - Awaken, My Love!

More Childish to keep the day going strong!

 
Day 7 - Mini/Maxi
New Order - Ceremony/In A Lonely Place

12" singles count, right? This is the original version of Ceremony, which I prefer. Great song that seemed to show the direction they were headed on this re-recording without Ian. In a Lonely Place ain't bad either, even if it sounds more decidedly like a Joy Division song.
