What's Spinning

[kafunis]

John Coltrane-Coltrane’s Sound.

 

[kafunis]

Chick Corea- Three Quartets.

 

[tvham]

Courtney Barnett - MTV Unplugged



Courtney has one of my favorite voices in music today, and this collection really highlights her voice and jangly guitar playing. Packaging is spot on, too!

The agutierrezb 2019 record collection challenge

So I've decided to embark on my own personal challenge, which consists of listening every record in my collection before the end of the year. My record collection is not that big -only ~250-, but I still feel like there are a bunch of records I don't give enough attention to, while still adding more titles to my shelves.

For this reason I've set a couple of rules in order to play every record at least once before December 31st: I'll play at least one record a day, going from front to back in the way I have them sorted in my shelf. I can play a different record (i.e. Not the next one in alphabetical order) if I feel like listening to something else in any given moment, but at least one of the records I spin in the day has to be the LP in turn.

I didn't take pictures for the first two days, but I'll try to document the process from here on, so I'll be posting daily on this thread. Wish me luck!

#148: King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard - Polygondwanalad



Like I said, its really hard to pick a favorite among this band's catalogue, but this one is special to me, as it was the one that really hooked me on KGATLW

 

[Yer Ol' Uncle D]

My favorite record of 2020 so far.

Who'd expect Dave Alvin of The Blasters and Victor Krummenacher of Camper Van Beethoven to spearhead a beautiful, trippy, psych record with interpretations of everyone from Alice Coltrane to Paul Butterfield to Roky Erickson? Not I.

Highly recommended.

The Third Mind - S/T

 

[JustChillin]

George Harrison- The Best of
Always loved the inner sleeve..

 

[kafunis]

Sly and the Family Stone- There’s A Riot Goin’ On.

 

[kafunis]

Laura Marling- A Creature I Don’t Know.

 

[Poly-Rythmo]

My collection #85

Daniel Merriweather - Love & War

I don't really listen to the charts or much pop so I thought this was a bit of a discovery when I found Merriweather on the recent Plug Seven compilation of Melbourne singers / groups "Seven Wonders". But it turns out he made this album with Mark Ronson, Adele sings on one track, and it reached #2 in UK charts. Whatever, I really like this.

My collection #86

Mos Def & Talib Kweli are Black Star

Cross post from Feb challenge where today is about New York rap. Turns out most of my rap collection is from New York but this is one of my favourites. Cool black star effect on the vinyl too.

 

[kafunis]

Winding down for Saturday dinner, this might be good.
Ladysmith Black Mambazo-Shaka Zulu.

Gentle Giant ‎– In A Glass House
WWA Records ‎– WWA 002, 1973

Didn’t know anything about Pinegrove when I preordered this so went in blind. A band that has supported many worthy causes. They then stumbled. Powerful music for our troubled times. Recommended.
