Wax Treasure (Vinyl)
-
@chrisjohnnick I'm going through the same process. I had 2500 or so, I'm down around 1500 or so now and have either sold or am selling a bunch. If I'm not realistically going to listen to it, off it goes.

When I was in high school, I had an upright piano in my bedroom that I got for free from a local church. I had enough records to fill up about 1/3 or 1/2 of the top, and I listened to all of them pretty regularly. I'm just trying to get back to that. There are some that I don't think I have touch in 20+ years, other than when flipping through.

Ironically, recorded over 2 nights. The opener, Tulsa Time, really gets my foot tapping.

I don't know a lot about vinyl and music in general but at the bremen meet I was talking to @IH-GARY and @endo about my fathers collection. He was a sales rep for universal music most of his career and has a lot of stuff. I was able to take a couple pictures today. Tip of the iceberg. Gary asked me to ask for his top five and he will think about it but named the stones, Springsteen, Johnny Cash and the Beatles for example. Nothing super special but he grew up with this music.

The Pale Rider XXL -
@FlavourFade Awesome! I hope you have fun exploring the collection! I worked in entertainment retail for years and the music label rep visits were the best!
-
@FlavourFade Beatiful preserved collection.
Next time around you should ask him to play something for you. Competence time.

Odd Nosdam - Pretty Swell Explode
With guests on the terrace, I chose some bleeps and blings as background music yesterday.
Boards of Canada remixes of Odd Nosdam didn’t disappoint.
Next time I’ll try an original BoC record. -
Eat a peach - last album with Duane. This, Live at Filmore, and the Beginnings compilation with the 1st 2 studio albums is my ABB trilogy.

Hoping to see her live at some point
-
One of the best albums of the 90’s and still a firm favourite.
-
@endo I was a big fan,and saw his band Spirit many times. Legend has it that Jimi Hendrix wanted him to join his band ,I think, when he as 16,but his mother wouldn’t let him go to England. I knew of that record but never heard it. I thought he was a great guitar player. Do you have any of his Spirit albums?
-
@Jett129 I've only got to know him recently and only have this one record of him. The similarity to Jimi immediately strikes you, and as far as I know he wanted him to open for him at Woodstock but somehow it didn't happen. Always amazed about your broad experience with all these bands.

Efterklang - Things We Have In CommonAfter talking with @ARNC in Bremen about Efterklang, he recommended their new collaboration with Mabe Fratti.
Like it a lot and perhaps the best record after Piramida. -
@Aetas glad you’re enjoying it. Piramida is definitely a high point for me too (I was lucky enough to see one of their live performances with an orchestra and Budgie standing in on the drums), but I have a soft spot for Magic Chairs as I first saw them live during this period.
