Day 3: BBQ
The Congos - Heart of the Congos

I definitely don't spend as much time as Storf thinking about what constitutes BBQ music, but this seems like a good one for a relaxed sunny day.

I got the RSD release, but I'm glad this got a wide release.

I got the RSD release, but I'm glad this got a wide release.

It’s a Run Out Groove, so it’s only as wide as orders placed. I didn’t quite catch on, I could’ve grabbed an RSD what it was at the time.

Also, @LeeVing , how’s that second disc in yours?

This 1 LP version isn't part of their usual "orders placed" releases - it's of a straight 3000 pressed, which is still less than the RSD version.

It's pretty good if you like instrumentals.

Day 3: BBQ


I really have no idea what people play at BBQ gatherings. While I have a Traeger grill, I don't entertain nor have anyway of playing music outside.

I found this for a buck or so almost 2 years ago and never really felt like playing it, but it seems to fit the theme.

Day 3: BBQ

Every time we fire up the grill and the speakers in the back yard things tend to go reggae more times than not...

Peter Tosh - Equal Rights

 

[Wicked Dreamer]

Day 4: ‘Murica!

Play something American or American-themed or American-inspired for America Day!


David Bowie - Young Americans not an American artist, but it was inspired by African-American soul music, and it has American in the title, so...

Day 4: ‘Murica!

Tell it Sly...

Sly And The Family Stone - There's A Riot Goin' On

DAY 3: BBQ
Desmond Dekker and the Aces: Action!

Excellent sunny day music

DAY 4: ‘MURICA
Akron/Family: Set ‘Em Wild, Set Em Free

This record is all over the place and I love it, but it always irked me that “River” is not the first track. It would’ve made the perfect album intro.

Day 4: 'Murica!
Silver Jews - American Water

Better morning music than my first thought, Youth of America. Maybe later.

 

[Nee Lewman]

Bookends - Simon & Garfunkel

Day 3 - BBQ

Mos Def and Talib Kweli Are Black Star

Hip Hop BBQ! I have older neighbors pretty much all around me, so here’s one without any explicit content.

 

[Dark Star Boogie]

Day 3 - Barbecue

Besides the last couple of songs on this album, this album is THE barbecue album of the year for me, although those last two songs would work fine in the situation.

This is the kind of music Storf was talking about barbecuing to with an open Hawaiian shirt in the summer....haha, what a strange way to describe music. But alas, that’s in the past—cheers!

Day 4 - ‘Murica!

Happy fourth all!
Wanted to go with American Beauty, from the best damn American band, but I’ve been meaning to spin this one recently so here we are with one of 2019’s best albums—American Love Call.
