Day 27: Underplayed
Underplayed for a reason...as I and most people consider it the weakest Morrison era Doors album. It's not as bad as the post-Morrison albums, but even I seem to play those more than this one. This has some good tracks, but they added backing bass and strings and that just don't work for me.
The Doors – The Soft Parade
Elektra – EKS-75005, 1969/~1979
Pressed at Allied

Day 24 - Label Love
It sure seemed like I was going with Numero there...but since I already expressed my love for them, I'll go with another favorite of mine.
New West Records
Steve Earle and the Dukes (and Duchesses) - The Low Highway
I love so many NW bands. And I have to say, their 20th Anniversary Box Set is really, really good.
I chose Steve Earle today because he played in Detroit the same night we already had tix for Lyle Lovett on Thursday. Lyle was amazing, I'm hoping Steve Earle was too.
PS I'm day drinking.
Also, this is a great record.

Canned Heat - Future Blues
Of course there are plenty of records I forget about or don't feel like playing much, but this came up on the Discogs randomizer and I haven't played it in a few years. This is the only record I bought at the only record fair I've been to. Great album. I should spin my Canned Heat more often.

Mikey Dread - Roots and Culture. I think I have one EP, not sure if a 10" is considered as EP. Going with this either way

Courtney Barnett - Tell Me How You Really Feel
I'm finally caught up, and having a great Saturday. The kid is organizing her room by her own choice, and I'm listening to records!

A bit of Jazz Funk goodness circa 1973 from the great James Moody!

Ella Fitzgerald - Mack the Knife, Ella in Berlin
Not my favorite kind of Jazz, but I had to get some Ella and this is a good one. My grandma would've loved it.
Weird cover typo, la Fitzgerald.
