Damn, that Kamasi is good. On first listen, it's the best thing he's released in quite a while for me...

Day 9 - Spin a record released in the 90’s or in a year ending in 9 Gang Starr - Full Clip: A Decade of Gang Starr I decided to play something from 1999 but on checking I've only got 3 records from that year. This 4LP compilation might be the best, not least as I got it for free from the...

Day 8 - Album / song / artist with geographical location in title, lyric or name Led Zeppelin - The Final Rehearsal 2007, Shepperton Studios, London Fantastic bootleg, arguably better than Celebration Day itself. What I'd given to have been there.

Day 7 - Spin any RRHoF artist that is already inducted, or has been nominated Aretha Franklin - The Atlantic Singles Collection 1967-1970 Had to look this one up...

Day 6 - Spin any splatter / marbled / split wax, picture disc or shaped vinyl Chris Whitley - Din of Ecstasy In honour of @Yer Ol' Uncle D. The last coloured disc I've had.

Day 5 - Today is 4/5 - spin a 45 or any record that is 45 rpm Inter Jazz Band - Makore Mashanu Back to fresh grabs, and a great little record from Zimbabwe. I must admit I bought it slightly (no listing on Discogs until me) to own something on that label (clearly where Analog Africa got some...

Day 4 – Spin any artist, album or song that repeats a letter in its name or title I Soumaoro et l'Eclipse de l'IJA - Le Tioko - Tioko I had actually already spun a record for today. But then Amadou Bagayogo (of Amadou & Mariam) died, so playing this in memory of him. Probably my favourite...

Gutted that Amadou (of Amadou & Mariam) has died. Was going to see them live again next month. One of my most special concert experiences was going to a gig in the dark by them to replicate their experience of being blind #RIP

At least 2 more on their way...

Day 3 - Spin any album or artist with a three word title / name NWA - Straight Outta Compton Don't think I can do a month of fresh grabs (at least my wallet hopes not) but here's another ticked off my want list.

Day 2 - It's International Guitar Month. Spin an album that includes a favorite guitarist(s) and if so inclined, tell us why they're a favorite. Neil Young & Crazy Horse - Dume Another fresh grab. No explanation needed, but I could die happy on hearing the guitar tone of Cortez The Killer.

Day 1 – Spin any artist’s / band’s debut record Mudhoney I had planned to think about this a bit but this fresh grab was on the turntable already. Loving getting reacquainted with Mudhoney, who were quite possibly my favourite from the grunge scene.

Love this album but this was an interesting read for me Little Simz sues former producer Inflo over unpaid debts

Day 31: Fare Thee Well, June 2015, Levi’s Stadium – As we bid goodbye to March and this challenge, play something that references a goodbye or farewell. Leonard Cohen - Live in London So Long Marianne - for a long time, I thought this album was from the Cohen concert I went to in London that...
