My wife's grandparents came from Scotland. Thinking back, I'm surprised we didn't have a piper at our wedding. Sounds awesome.

July 27 - Scotch Whisky Day
Play something connected to Scotland
Mogwai - Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will
Not the Glasgow band's best album (but near the top), but definitely their best album title.

They definitely have a way with song titles as well. I'm Jim Morrison, I'm Dead is one of their best

July 30 - The Walkman was first introduced in 1979.
Play some headphones music
This isn't the first Walkman I owned, but it's the first unit I bought to record live shows in better quality.
I've still got that deck and here's one of my favorite shows she captured...
For the cans, I'll go with The Black Crowes most sonically dense record. As Steve Gorman said in his book, The Crowes recorded track upon track upon track for the songs on this one and pretty much everything is there because Jack Joseph Puig can mix the hell out of a record...
The Black Crowes - Three Snakes And One Charm

Miles Davis - Kind of Blue
It's easy to get lost in the beauty of this album when listening with headphones

Play some headphones music
Grateful Dead "From The Mars Hotel" (1974 Grateful Dead Records; 2019 MOFI 2x45rpm remaster)
Pulling out a big gun for this. The soundstage on this is amazeballs. I swear some of the sounds are being projected from phantom speakers in other rooms of the house.

July 25 - All of you are the best.
Play something that you got as a PIF or because a forum member turned you on to the artist
Dexter Gordon - One Flight Up
Picked up this Tone Poet reissue on the basis of all the buzz it was getting in the Blue Note thread here. On my initial stream, it didn’t really jump out at me. But I kept seeing people praising the pressing, so I picked it up. I am SO glad I did. This is an incredible sounding record and the music is fantastic.

That is the curse of streaming on the computer. I listen to stuff while doing something so I really am only half listening. At least if I am streaming to my stereo I tend to be more focused on listening.

Play some headphones music
Dr. Dre - The Chronic
I don’t yet have a Walkman yet, it’s on my waitlist though as I have been accumulating a decent amount of cassette tapes recently. Until then, here’s some some cassette love on my tape deck…

I drove a 91 Subaru Legacy wagon for about a year 3 or 4 years back that had a working tape deck that started me on collecting tapes, unfortunately the car deck outlived the car so I had all these tapes and nothing to play them on. Also, outside some Hip-Hop/Metal/Punk titles the vast majority of tapes can be had for a fraction of the cost of the vinyl LPs.

I've been meaning to pick up a new cassette deck.
The Sony RX77ES i found about 10 years ago that kinda worked back then is in need of new belts....as they are now all goop. I took it apart to see what it needs and it's a fairly complicated looking. From what I've read on other forums its also a PITA to work on.
Any new cassette decks out there are crap...as there is only one cassette mechanism being made now and it's crap.

Day 30: The Walkman was first introduced in 1979
Play some headphones music
There were about 50 albums I wanted to post for today's challenge. Especially since my Schiit Mani upgrade arrived this morning and I've been enjoying eargasms since. Finally settled on a Porcupine Tree favorite of mine, Voyage 34. Felt right to bring this one out after the talk of grilled cheese and acid yesterday.
