Vinyl Me Please Essentials

[Mather]

I check VMP on reddit occasionally, and someone posted that they received their Spiritualized record. Difference between reddit and here I guess, there are currently 37 comments and no one has asked or offered info on how the damn record sounds!!!! Having a copy of the Plain press, that's the only question I have!

Alright I asked.

I look forward to being down voted to hell.

Sorry to make you re-live such trauma.

I actually don't care for the obi's. I'd rather just see the album spine.

LOL, Yeah it doesn’t bother me with records at all because I sort my record the way the good Lord (and Discogs) intended and don’t group all my VMP titles together.

TBH i really like the new obi design.. i actually prefer it to the old obi

Olivia Newton John’s “Physical” for me.

Mine is Isaac Hayes "Theme for Shaft", baby.

Eye of the Tiger was #1 the week I was born.

 

[moohoohahaha]

Rolling Stones Brown Sugar bday song in the house! ...which makes me feel old.

 

[BattleFlag]

Eye of the Tiger was #1 the week I was born.

Seeing as it was #1 for two weeks, it looks like you and I were born within a fortnight of each other!

Kim Carnes - Betty Davis Eyes was the #1 when I was born.

 

[wmeugene]

So for Essentials, wouldn't this be great:

Stevie Wonder - Songs In The Key Of Life
Bob Dylan - Modern Times
Woody Guthrie - Dust Bowl Ballads (or some other classic recording sessions)

 

[Waitressboy]

This is very easy:

Britney Spears - Britney Jean
Kevin Federline - Playing With Fire
Corey Feldman - Angelic 2 The Core

It even fits in the "December is a classic album" thing.
It is so obvious, how come nobody guessed before

Kim Carnes - Betty Davis Eyes was the #1 when I was born.

I love that song. Every time I am out and about and hear the first few chords, I am like, "Betty Davis Eyes". Most ppl. near me, give me stink eye, like what's he talking about. Then that double slap/snare hit comes in and I get he BIGGEST SMILE.

(BTW, for you youngin's...I remember hearing/seeing that being performed on SOLID GOLD. Bet you can't say that!)!!!

My birthday song is Rock Your Baby - George McCrae. I will take it. I like some of that era music. Yes, I am old you whipper snappers!

I threw all that shit big originals or small new version. Just got in the way or would fall into places I’d leave until another fell in the same place and another.
And whilst I’m posting anyone read a cocktail recipe recently....

Oh and
UK Number 1 Nov 1975 - David Bowie Space Oddity - Cool

Did Stevie Wonder and Bob Dylan get married and I missed it?

 

[bdrummond]

Did Stevie Wonder and Bob Dylan get married and I missed it?

Dylan's ex wife did backup vocals for Stevie's "Songs in the Key of Life"

Best sitcom idea ever.

Stevie's blind and no one can understand anything Dylan says. THEY'RE THE ORIGINAL ODD COUPLE

 

[gaporter]

Ah. Well I like my interpretation better

The episode where they have christmas dinner at Stevies Aunts place and Dylan accidentally blows up the turkey while trying to turn it into a bong is a CLASSIC.

As someone who collects comic book hardcover collections I can relate. It fucks up the nice spines when they change things like this.

Fuck You DC.

Court of Owls is awesome. Still need to read the others!

I forgot cocktail recipes were a thing.

Why are we typing the #1 song when we were born?
