I know this is likely not news to most of you, but the 2013 Deluxe 3LP pressing of Postal Service "Give Up" is absolutely incredible. Both the package and the pressing and the mastering are phenomenal.
Watching "Us" with all the lights out in the middle of the night with headphones on and halfway through my dog suddenly jumps up and starts staring towards the sliding glass doors at the back of the house.
So now I'm staying awake till the sun comes up obviously.
Got two Analogue Productions 2 LP 45 RPM records coming from the west coast. The shipping manifest lists the package as "thick envelope". This does not instill confidence.
A pair of albums I sent from Canada to Europe just arrived. I sent them Jan 28th. EIGHTEEN WEEKS. So yes, don't lose hope in that thing you bought and ordered that's seemingly gone, it could have just been hanging out in some nether-realm along with a copy of Mr. Hands and Yusef Lateef.
Okay so I found a OG Roni Size 4LP 45 RPM "New Forms", got it delivered today and I am fully blasting it like it's 97 and I'm wearing pants five sizes too big for me and dancing at 4 am in an old hockey rink or wherever the rave bus dropped us off and I keep asking my dogs if they're holding and they just keep staring at me and I think they might be narcs and I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH MYSELF
Alright informal poll time, I'm thinking of writing "So Fresh & So Clean" on the floor of my new laundry room in tile. Choose one:
A. Yo dawg, that's hype.
B. Yo dawg, that's whack.
C. What are you even taking about, you're high right? You have to be high.
Air Force jets are apparently flying over my city today to "boost morale". I just woke up to them screaming over my house and naturally assumed WW3 had broken out.
IT ISN'T WORKING AS INTENDED
TIL Steve Buscemi was a firefighter before he started his acting career.
I'm gunna need to sit down and process this. I mean I liked him before but now... now that he's actually a certified bad-ass. Shit I might need a new tattoo.
Dog #1 injured her paw yesterday, was limping around pitifully all day. She got so many treats and so much attention for being such a trooper. Today she is completely fine, pretty sure it was all a ruse. SHE'S LEARNING
Hey so, Ritchie Havens was like, incredible. I just discovered this... uh... now.
He was forced to open Woodstock when the opening band got stuck in traffic. He was supposed to play for 20 minutes, he ended up playing for 3 hours and when he finally ran out of songs he improvised "Freedom" on the spot, in front of 400,000 people.
