Day 28: Isn’t that novel
Spin something that features a novelty song (Halloween themed preferred but not required)
Kate Bush - The Kick Inside
I'd say "Wuthering Heights" is the very definition of a novelly song.
*double-checks today's challenge*
Well, I think I misread that one.

Nothing - The Great Dismal
I don’t really have anything for this. But this variant is called “Bloodshot Eye”, that’s kinda creepy right?

"The Witching Hour” is a radio play that is being broadcast simultaneously on 100 radio stations (including Savannah’s WRUU 107.5FM) around the country, and live-streamed by Graveface, Terrorvision, and Mondo (which has a broad reach with 250,000 followers).
“It’s a mix of narrative, music, ghost stories, and all this stuff,” said Graveface.

Day 29: National Cat Day
Cat Stevens – Teaser And The Firecat (Island Records, 1971 First UK Pressing)
This is what I love about these challenges, they sometimes push you to dig deep to find an album that fits the theme. I bought this record years ago when I was first getting into the hobby, and likely paid no more than 50p for it at a carboot sale. It might have been played since then, but I really cant remember and pretty much went into this not knowing what to expect. Its an absolutely stunning album, really beautiful music. I will definitely be playing it again before the weekend, and I also have a copy of 'Back To Earth' which was picked up in a similar situation many years ago.

Blink-182 - The Mark, Tom and Travis Show
A few of these songs come off of their album Chesire Cat (which I don't own). That album cover is pretty iconic and is one of the first that comes to mind when I think of cats and music.

I'd take a picture of my cat, but it's 4 AM and the house is dark. I'll edit this later with a pic...I'm sure it will be one of her sleeping on the top of the couch.

This record is actually brilliant, and the vinyl pressing is amazing. First time listening to it on vinyl, very surprised.

I spent a lot of time raiding my older sisters album collection as a kid. She was (and still is) a cat person, so this one always reminds me of her. Bonus pic of my cat, Kai, hanging out on his halloween castle.

Wild Beasts "Boy King" (2016 Domino; Limited edition on red vinyl)
An album by Wild Beasts with the opening track "Big Cat" fits the theme pretty well.
Here's a photo of my little buddy (from the spring - he's out gallivanting right now):

Jerry Garcia Band - Cats Under The Stars
Tallulah is always down for some Garcia. Though she was kinda pissed that I woke her up from her morning nap for the photo.
