What's Spinning

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!

As some of you know, I'm a big fan of flamenco, but it hasn't always been like that. A couple of years ago I delved into this genre, and the amount of artists, recordings and kowledge to take in was just too much, so any help from knowledgeable people is always welcome. I was on southern Spain last December, and purchased this record at a record store specialized on the genre. The store owner suggested a this and a couple other records when I asked for recommendations on old school flamenco, and I'm very glad he did, because this singer showed me a side of flamenco that seems to have been lost on recent decades, but that is just as impressing as the paths the genre has recently taken.
