I have to say, that thread played a part in it, too; it trains the ear. I don't know if listening to this record a few years ago would have been as enjoyable for me as it is now. Almost certainly not.

Ive learned plenty about great German albums from the late 60s and 70s from this thread - especially since I already considered myself a kraut-rock aficionado (typical cocky American i know....)

[Mizmazzle]

@GraemeE whoa!!! That’s freaking amazing! I’m still patiently waiting for my MFSL release of MM. a Verlaine personal copy would be rather badass as well.

Cooking tacos and listening to LC. This is probably my favorite record of his. Such an oddball album for him.

Ai generated?

[GraemeE]

@68degreesorless well technically yes....

I used my phone photo editor to try and blur out a certain word in one of the song titles that I didn't feel comfortable posting

And I did a pretty shitty job of it at that but at least its not legible

[68degreesorless]

Ahh I see.

[GraemeE]

@68degreesorless essentially I tried to make it subtle so no one would be the wiser...then failed at subtlety by not realizing my phone would betray me in the bottom left corner

Zero AI deception required on this one

After 6 weeks on the road, I'll be home again next weekend. Thinking of placing a record order to coincide with my arrival. I've been getting more interested in 60s and 70s funk, soul, and funk/soul-influenced jazz. I have names like Cymande, Bill Withers, Stevie Wonder, Boogaloo Joe Jones, Jimmy McGriff, Lou Donaldson, Booker T & th MGs, O'Donel Levy, and Jimmy Smith on my want list. Would love to hear any recs in that spirit from the group.

@68degreesorless a great place to discover alot of artists is to trace back and find out the source material of the samples used on 90s hip hop tracks

[J-IV]

@68degreesorless Cortex, David Axelrod’s Heavy Axe, Joe Bataan, Little Beaver, anything on Mainstream Records (Charles Kynard, Barry Miles, Paul Jeffery)

[endo]

David Porter, Isaac Hayes, Terry Callier ...

[goosehd]

Isaac Hayes

[Aetas]

@68degreesorless When it comes to Stevie Wonder, perhaps Looking Back is an option.
From 60s soul to the 70s balladry and funk.
Motown recordings from 1962 to 1971 on three LP’s.

Sometimes it’s okay to have it a bit bombastic.
