Day 24: Christmas Eve

Play an album an artist made right before their masterpiece

Nirvana - Bleach


Debate can be had about which Nirvana album is their masterpiece. (I'm inclined to believe it's the one on my turntable at the time). These days I tend to play their live stuff most so the Portland gig on this pressing is mighty welcome.

Totally agree, Bleach rules
 
Day 29: Album of the Year

Play your album of 2024


I hardly ever preorder an album based on a single especially for a band I am totally unfamiliar with, but Starburster off this caught my ear from the first time i heard it, and I jumped on the initial 'first pressing' release. Glad I did, the rest of the album is just as solid and has been a great bonding point and rabbit hole with myself and the 17 year old.

The Deluxe Edition is fantastic. There was a rash of colored vinyl pressings of this one and if someone enjoys pretty colors then more power to em but this version could be had for like $24 and it came on heavy vinyl pressed at RTI with a beautiful gatefold jacket AND a killer live show bonus disc. It seems like a no brainer.

I need to get this one.
Incidentally one of my favourite live Sun Ra albums is at the same venue two years before the Nirvana show.
 
Day 30: Unloved

Play an album that you bought this year but haven't either spun yet or given enough love to if you've spun them all!


Not really unloved since it just came in the other day. But I haven't spun it yet.

Quite a day catching up in this thread, started with Bluegrass and finishing with Screamo.
