Patiently awaiting more Dorothy to come later this month....

Don't think anyone mentioned this, been wanting to check it out since I heard the 1st track a bit ago. Post rock-y adventures. Just starting listening now.

It's really really good. Just bought tickets for next March to see em. The wife and I don't share a ton of musical interests at this point but it's one of the few bands I've introduced to her that she really digs. Very excited

Yeah sure! I'm in on this why the heck not?! (says the guy who's got 2 weeks left on a gig and nothing definite lined up after...)

I'm with you. Have super fond memories of that album. Saw them on the tour after, show was great, got high in the parking lot with some of them. Great memories, but it's not where I"m at now. Super happy for others who are excited, but the likes of Merle Haggard and Dorothy Ashby get me going...

I'm glad I'm not the only one who immediately thought of this scene.

Day 31: We’ve Come To The End Of The Line The month is over and you’ve all no doubt bought the usual metric shit tonne of vinyl this month. Spin your favourite May grab for me today. Miles Davis - Filles de Kilimanjaro (1969, Columbia) I'm always in the lookout for 60s era Miles, so when...

Well, they got.me with the last chance email. Suddenly I needed a copy of The Doors to add on. I have such a weird relationship with that band. I had a huge (stereotypical suburban) high school Doors phase that I think of them as somewhat juvenile because of that association. But I looked again...

Day 30 - Unloved Banana Gun - Rules I generally listen to everything pretty soon after I get it, although the posthumous Jason Molina album took me a few months to work up to a first spin. I found this in the shelves though, a friend's band that put out this EP last year, I had streamed it a...

Yeah, love the album, hopefully it comes back in print. Seems I would have to pay shipping back to Amsterdam to return it, so I'm sorta boned on this one it looks like.

Sorry if this has been mentioned, but has anyone else got a terrible pressing of Speak No Evil (Blue Note 80) ? I tracked a copy down a couple months ago on Amazon, that finally got here (from the Netherlands I believe) and out of the package it's a nightmare. Weird distortion, and lots of crazy...

Day 29: Play Me Something English Live Stiffs Live (1978 - Stiff Records) Well sadly somehow nothing Mancunian on my shelves, so we'll go this route. Really freaking English at least. Messy wonderful live performances from Nick Lowe, Wreckless Eric, Ian Duty and Elvis Costello. I guess the...

Day 28: Friday I'm in Love Tom Waits - Heart of Saturday Night (1974 - Asylum) I live the wild eccentricites of Tom Waits, but in the end, I'm an even bigger sucker for his ballads. "San Diego Serenade" is a damn good one, 'Picture In a Frame' might be my tops, but don't have a vinyl copy...

Day 27: Celebrate Women Grouper - Dragging A Dead Deer Up A Hill (2013, Kranky) Liz Harris is amazing. That's all. Getting a little faded and floating away with this one after a long long week of work. The end of this gig is in sight, with some much needed vacation afterwards.

Day 26: Black Lives Matter Makayla McCraven - Universal Beings E&F Sides Nuff said. Pairing this album with this reading right now.
