Just a reminder to take Storfs twitter answers with a grain of salt
There was a moment in my life when I almost bought that on vinyl. More so because my roommate in college kept on telling me to buy it on vinyl. He used to play the album damn near everyday throughout the house blasted from his shitty goodwill find stereo. Kind of wish I did buy it; it goes for a pretty penny! Not sure why I didn’t buy it. Probably bought a couple cases of Keystone Light insteadAnyway, hope everyone enjoys their copy of Macklemore's "The Heist".
If I ever had to live with anyone that played that album daily, I'd be living alone. Where did my roommate go? Stop asking so many questions.There was a moment in my life when I almost bought that on vinyl. More so because my roommate in college kept on telling me to buy it on vinyl.

New hints:
That’s why prefaced by saying he was shitposting with those responses by saying “faves don’t mean anything.”
For my current guesses at least, there was no ambiguity with how he shot me down lol
Could also be The xx, Girls, The Pains of Being Pure at Heart or Mumford & Sons.I wonder if the last one in Essentials is Lungs by Florence + the Machine.
First could Just As I Am by Bill Withers which would kickass.
I would laugh so hard if it’s Faust! Such a great album but definitely not for everyone. It would be by far the most out there thing they’ve released in a long while.A few great debut albums from 1971 that would file under Essentials:
Inner Mounting Flame
Just As I Am
Songs For Beginners
John Prine (had a great AAA rhino reissue a couple months ago)
ZZ Top's First Album (had a good AAA rhino reissue a couple years ago)
Carly Simon
Faust
Little Feat
Bonnie Raiit
And not an American repress, which is what they seem to focus on in determining if it has had a recent repress.If I were a betting man I'd say January Essentials is gonna be Bill Withers despite having a Speakers Corner reissue recently. (which isn't color!!!! lol)
I'm guessing XX instead of Florence, but either would be pretty good picks IMOSo I definitely could see Bill Withers, The Strokes. Florence and the Machine as the three month run.
My question with Florence is she released a 10th anniversary edition last year - both colored vinyl and deluxe box set. Love her, just not sure I'd buy another copy of this!So I definitely could see Bill Withers, The Strokes. Florence and the Machine as the three month run.
