Solidly in the power-pop with grungy guitars zone.
Lead singer Eva Hendricks has a very distinctive, did-I-accidentally-play-this-at-45RPM voice that suits the songs, but can take a bit of getting used to.
Good morning! #NowPlaying Miles Davis Quintet - Freedom Jazz Dance (The Bootleg Series vol. 5) #vinyl#jazz@vinylrecords - it’s like having the quintet rehearse in my living room 🔥🔥🔥
Another import I was eager to find after a friend got this and we’d listen to the whole thing repeatedly.
This is a second pressing from Germany in 1981. Got this around 1990. Even then this was hard to find and import only.
It remains their best live album imho. Recorded on New Year’s Eve 1977 in London, they took the best of 3 performances, and it shows. You can hear how excited the crowd was throughout the album.
So nämlich.
K1 zu mir: „Papa, in unserem #Minecraft Dorf muss eine #Bibliothek gebaut werden. Das muss das schönste und größte Gebäude werden!“
Und dann legte er los. Das Ergebnis: Bücherwände wohin man blickt, achtsam im Detail (keine Fackeln = offenes Feuer, sondern Lampen!) und vor allem: eine Phono-Ecke mit Plattenspieler und #Vinyl an der Wand, genau wie in unserem #VinylLabor an der @zlb_berlin ❤️
NPR says it better than I could: “Almost 50 years after Journey In Satchidananda was released, the album remains a vision of universal healing, spiritual self-preservation in times of trouble and the god that appears when you seek her out."
A bit of #pop#punk from #Wales on a Sunday morning, just for a change.
My son bought this Neck deep album nine years ago and it remained sealed until this morning, when we cracked it open. I feel the same way about sealed #vinyl as I feel about sealed #games: pointless.
Hey, Soul fans; if you're in Kirkby Lonsdale this afternoon, why not join ProfDJ for four hours of soul - yes, its Soul Sunday at the Royal Barn (New Rd.) again.
They'll be timeless classics, northern soul, some Motown, a bit of southern soul, but everyone's a treat (and all played on vinyl).
You can expect to hear: Aretha, Marvin, O'Jays & Love Unlimited and so much more
See you there! Kicks off around 2.00 & runs through to 6.00(ish).
have been wanting a copy for a while - just found at the local record fair. The cover is a bit discoloured, but the vinyl looks great - fingers crossed it will be when listening later today. 1982 Japanese pressing. #vinyl#jazz@vinylrecords

Will be playing a late (for me) Twitch set at 11pm UK time tonight!
It's part of the 45 Day (4th of the 5th) raid train, dedicated to the humble 7"/45 RPM vinyl, with every DJ playing a set entirely on that format. This is hilarious for someone like me who has giant hands 😆 Expect dancehall, Hip-Hop, and some other bits - with content warning!
Bob Fartblossom, aka Bob Durkee, was a kind of local underground celeb where I grew up. After putting out releases from his own band (Pillsbury Hardcore) he started his own label and put out bands like Justice League, Three Day Stubble, and Subculture. I’d buy pretty much anything on the label in the mid to late 80s.
This has become a bit of a novelty item since it’s Dave Grohl’s first band.
Comes with glossy fold-out insert with photos, and “thanks” list, a postcard, and the text "David Grohl destroys Tama drums exclusively” in the lower left corner.
Also, engraved on one side's runoff is the message "Everything Matters" while on the other side is etched "Time Doesn't Matter".
A good delivery day today, if somewhat spread out. A set of bathroom scales, something I haven't used since I was a twenty-something and, having quickly used this evening, will probably never use again.
Two new LPs for the collection: "Tales of Topographic Oceans" by Yes - described on the cover as the changing force in progressive rock, whereas I seem to recall diehard Yes fans hated this record - and "Bursting at the Seams" from Strawbs. Anyone remember Strawbs?
