Robbie Fulks is so great. If people don't know him, check out the youtube videos where he plays the top 10 of each year. Pretty great and hilarious!

Love this LP. Also, love Garcia Peoples. I have their first two LPs on wax but haven’t dug into their most recent which I think is like just one long piece of music. I need to give it a go.

I wish they would release a vinyl comp of all their non-album EPs and Singles. They had such a great (but all too brief) run.

That was the only time I've been to Coachella, back when they sold 1 day passes. Saw Noisettes, Gillian Welch & Dave Rawlings, Arctic Monkeys, Jesus & Mary Chain, and Bjork. Was a great day. I remember the Arctic Monkeys part as it turned into a european festival. All these flags came out of nowhere.

I agree! I was just looking on Discogs - everything is super pricey.

Yeah, One Step Behind is by far my favourite from them. Definitely check it out!

Day 4 - Local Talent!
This band's from Ottawa, while not entirely close to where I grew up they are indeed an Ontario band! I saw them play a show in Peterborough when I was in Highschool, really fun time and introduced me to how amazing live music is! This is one of my brothers favorite records, so I'm spinning this one for him!
Hollerado - Record In A Bag

We’ve seen your photos at the Black Sabbath convention... you’re just a whippersnapper.

Anyway, catching up
Day 3 - Childhood
Elvis Costello & The Attractions - Armed Forces
Not so much this album but the music video for Accidents Will Happen is a really early memory. Great video still and don’t know what about it stayed implanted in my mind but fuck knows. Maybe my interest in animation but lovely link with pop art and Barney Bubbles own Elvis covers. I also found a story I wrote when I was about 7 about a Werewolf who went to see David Bow-Wow-ie so I guess I was always a fan.
But here’s Armed Forces and the Accidents Will Happen video

Day 4 - Local hero
Lots of albums I could pick from this guy but I’m going with the one I think is his best studio album. St Dominic’s Preview - Van Morrison
Van was actually my first concert, went with my uncle Gerard. He was awesome. This album is pretty perfect, though funnily the song that might push this into the uber classic league is the most throwaway, wonderful Redwood Tree. Just joyous music. I said best studio album as It’s Too Late To Stop Now is maybe my favourite Van album, but at 1:15 in the morning It’s Too Late To Start Now for a double live album

This needs no explanation, just a DOPE record on so many levels!

I was going to post these catchups yesterday, but with the picture embargo notification on top I decided to wait.
DAY 2 - ETCHING
I bought this record on a whim having never heard a note from this group in February of 2002. It was sitting there in my favorite record store in Connecticut, Trash American Style, and something about it just intrigued me.
It wasn't rare that I would buy an electronic record, I just didn't realize I was buying one when I did. Considering at the time I was listening to a lot of hardcore and jazz, I was unprepared for this. Wait, scratch that... I was unprepared for just how much I was going to love this album.
Size 6 was an etching, as I am now over explaining because there is a picture above.
DAY 3 - CHILDHOOD
From the time I was born until I was three, I lived with my parents in an apartment in the Flushing neighborhood of Queens New York. Music was always happening in the house from what I remember, though it wasn't until later that I came to fully realize what was happening: my parents were bedroom artists and they collaborated with two of their friends on composing songs and doing 4-track audio recordings.
To explain what the songs sounded like, it really depended on who was writing it or was in charge of the song. There are four albums that whenever I hear them I think of my parents and the recordings that they made:
1. Joan Jett, I Love Rock & Roll
2. Linda Rondstadt, Heart Like a Wheel
3. Russ Ballard, Winning
4. My pick for the day's challenge
