She's got such a great taste in music! She played records for 4 hours! She had lots of other shoegaze, indie hits. Lots of color pressings.
I knew this album was a masterpiece, but I didn't think the same could be said for the vinyl cover...
My second favourite Tom Petty album (Damn the torpedoes is my #1 by a mile). but that side A is hard to beat. Three hits, and the songs that aren't hit are just fire.
I never really dove into the work of post-Beatles McCartney. I was drawn to Harrison’s solo stuff a lot more, but wow, I’m so obsessed. This album, Wings at the Speed of Sound, and Ram have been in heavy rotation for me lately.
Tell me what score you are going to listen to today and a share a pic!
Which isn’t a lot but weird it happened twice
Just picked up these Sonus Faber Electa Amator IIIs and I gotta say I’m blown away. Huge soundstage, incredibly holographic imaging.
Gentlemen at the showroom was telling me his staff went to visit Sonus Faber recently and talked about the production of this speaker line. According to him they’re individually hand sanded by the same old Italian guy. I don’t know how I’d verify that myself, so I suppose now I need to take a trip to Italy. For science.
Came into possession of this by way of a relative, I don’t know how old it is but I’m guessing it’s up there. Really cool find, miss you Jack.
one of my favorite parts of this format is the amount of real estate that artists have to be creative. any other recommendations for things like this?
Some vinyl for the last two weeks. First week a bit of hip hop and synth pop stuff. Some of my favorites being West End Girl and Jubilee. And my third being Evangelic Girl is a Gun. if you like Ashikko you'll like yeule. (Yes her name is actually lowercase).
As for the second week I have a bit of pop and electronic music. My favorite is Kavinsky. I also do own some Daft Punk but I didn't have it in my playlist this week. Maybe next time. As for pop I'll give it to Lady Gaga and Sabrina Carpenter. The third favorite in the second week playlist is Hikaru Utada and Ado. My main favorite being Love Psychedelico. I understand they may not be some people's favorite when it comes to Japanese music. But I heard a few songs and I fell in love with the band.
Skirted out over my lunch and found a Wally master of this classic album in the wild. The record was pretty stinkin’ clean, so I could not resist for $15. Oh and the Wally master absolutely punches you in the face.
