A Vinyl Collection from A to Z

Lockdowns suck! But the silver lining is that I've had more time to listen to records. I thought it would be fun to feature an A to Z selection of my current record collection. My collection is sorted alphabetically (same as the A-Z sort on Discogs), this method sorts by artists first name, which admittedly... Continue Reading →

Beans – All Together Now

I received my copy of Beans - All Together Now from the Flightless label. 'Melt' edition limited to 1000 copies is a nice purple and magenta double sided swirl. Looks awesome but my copy is more a mix of purple and magenta without much swirl. All Together Now is a greatly evolved sounding album for... Continue Reading →

10cc – Deceptive Bends

For a debut album it has an unbelievable number of incredible tracks that are probably counted as the most popular Steely Dan songs released. Tracks like Do It Again, Dirty Work, Reelin' In...

Getting Ready…Freddie King

Of the Three Kings, Freddie has to be the most under-rated! Like many of the bluesmen from his time, he made his way to Chicago where we made a name for himself as one of THE best electric blues guitarists. While his career spanned an impressive 25 years, he was over-looked by Chess Records and... Continue Reading →
