What's Spinning

[ngower]

Been listening to Romy's (of the xx) Boiler Room set obsessively. It's a love letter to turn-of-the-century trance music and has a bunch of queer undertones throughout. Just an absolute joy of a set that's rekindling my love of a genre I'd long since forgotten.



Her album is pretty killer too if you're into that sort of thing:

 

[Yer Ol' Uncle D]

Cowboy Junkies - Black Eyed Man

 

[Yer Ol' Uncle D]

Paul Cauthen - Have Mercy EP

Happy birthday Roebuck 'Pops' Staples.

A beautiful 4:26...



Pops Staples - Don't Lose This

 

[Yer Ol' Uncle D]

Saw this band open for Soundgarden in 1996 and it was all over.

You Am I - Sound As Ever

Every song, every song, has a riff or a hook or a line that just burrows into your brain and you're happy to receive it. Think Big Star meets The Who...







A power chord opus to close the record...



This is 4 of 13 songs on the record and they're all this kinda catchy.

One of my favorite bands to turn folks on to and conversely a band I feel is sorely underappreciated...

This is sure to be a coffee morning spin staple:

Holly Bowling - Better Left Unsung

Thanks again @Yer Ol' Uncle D !!!

This was the January selection of VMD Mach II puting the D in the best Damn record club since 2022.

Interesting band name, never heard of them.

I just bought the Kid A mnesiac 3 LP set, but I need the house to myself for a few hours to get through it at the proper volume

There's a definite division in my house on those that love the ending of The National Anthem, and those that ask me to turn the volume down.

They're a pretty obscure band and called it quits not a moment to soon.

I take inspiration in the guitar player as an example of clean living and how that impacts ones lifespan. Imagine if he had been tempted by the devils lettuce?

Or worse powdered cleansers?
