Day 27 - Underplayed

Angel Olsen / Steve Gunn ‎– Live At Pickathon

I bought this in 2016 and have only spun it once. This second spin reminds me why. I like both artists, but the sound is mediocre at best and this all comes off very flat and uninspiring. This might hit my 'to sell' pile.

Day 28 - The Jazziest of Sundays

Deodato - Prelude

This was the only jazz record my parents had, so it was my first introduction to the genre when I was a wee little guy. I'd listen and stare at the cover and get scared. I think I'm past that now.

 

[Yer Ol' Uncle D]

Day 29: New Arrival
black midi - SCHLAGENHEIM

This is my latest arrival. Was supposed to ship with the new Thom Yorke album but it is still held up for distributor issues at bullmoose. Really dig this album even if the vocals are silly at times. Listening through all tube amplification on my headphones because my wife did not enjoy it!

So... what did you think?

I dig it, kinda all over the place. See some Kinks, a few other things. Need to sit down and focus on it. Was cleaning the place while kinda listening. I'll be keeping it for now.

Calexico/Iron & Wine - Years to Burn

This one was actually surprisingly hard! Apart from VMP and records purchased directly from bands and labels I don't have many indie exclusives. This is my only Loser Edition.
