Otis Redding - The Soul Album
Is it a hot take to say that I think this is my favorite album from Otis, who is a top five artist for me?
While we're on the subject, Greatest Hits is Al Green's best album and I will not be having discussions on this subject.

Day 28 - 45rpm
Faduma Kassim - Majogo
Looking through my fairly extensive 7s collection, I'm amazed at how few female artists I have (mostly due to a preponderance of male African singers/groups). This is one of the rare exceptions. I don't know much about it apart from it's Somali, very good, and on the excellent Afro 7 label, which is doing amazing things in releasing obscure East African music.

Day 28 - That Was Fast
Spin a 7” or 45 RPM (heck, if you have a 78 and wanna go that route that’ll works too)
Magnolia Electric Co. - It’s Made Me Cry
I believe this was a RSD exclusive back around the time that Josephine was released (it includes a cut from that album on this 7”). “It’s Made Me Cry” is such a wonderful song, the part that always bums me out is that it is so short. It reminds me a bit of “Raining In Darling” by occasional collaborator Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy in that it’s beauty is only matched by it’s brevity.
