July 2021 Vinyl Spin Challenge: Summer Breeze Makes Me Feel Fine

Day 30: The Walkman was first introduced in 1979
Play some headphones music

Nice broad array of choices. I think I only caught the tail end of Walkman days, but all my portable music choices found their best uses in travel and with sharing with others. This choice felt apropos from the shared collection

Various Artists - Almost Famous OST

@Turbo thanks, and how do you do the collage?

What @TenderLovingKiller® said... the Topsters2 site.

(to make it look like a calendar, press options and select the "collage" radio button to get even sized squares in the X by Y size you want, so 7 columns and 5-6 rows depending on the month)

July 31 - Free play!!

Infected Mushroom - More Than Just A Name

Hadn't seen much electronica this month so figured today was a good day to throw one up! Thanks for a great month @jamieanderson1968. I had a lot of fun doing my first challenge month and look forward to next months too.

I will follow @Turbo ’s lead and use this opportunity to spin a recent acquisition. This sounds fantastic, I might have to sneak out today and pick up another Bonnie Raitt record.




Thanks for leading us through July @jamieanderson1968 it’s been a really enjoyable challenge!

Hopefully I’ll catch most of ya over at @Selaws August Challenge Thread…

August 2021 Vinyl Spin Challenge Thread: Summer Loving

August 2021 Challenge Thread Welcome everyone, I hope we can have fun this month and share some great records. Usual rules. No competition, just have fun! Diversity is key! Try to stretch out with a range of music. Try to avoid duplicates or the same artist. Imaginary bonus points if there is...

I am stoked for August!

Cairo Free Jazz Ensemble - Heliopolis


My wife definitely doesn't enjoy this album, but she's at work right now so I'm free to play it!

As the say goes, "when the spouse is away, the free jazz will play"

Thanks for a great month @jamieanderson1968 - that was a very fun ride!

Cannibal Corpse - Butchered at Birth

This is headphone music because the last time I played this my wife came into the room after a couple of songs and politely asked me to put on headphones. She couldn’t take it anymore she said. I completely understood.

Going with @jfitzy 's thinking.

July 30 - The Walkman was first introduced in 1979.

Luckily I can listen to music at a decent volume with out disturbing my wife upstairs. I really don't have anything that should be listened to on headphones...but I have these just in case.

Amazon product ASIN B07RFNZYJZ
I got them more for listening off my tablet, but I really haven't used them for that all that much.

As for my old Walkman...I can't remember the model I had. But once I get a decent tape deck I'm gonna peal the shrink off this still sealed cassette.




But for now I'll play something I listened to a lot on cassette when I spent most summers in the 90's mowing.

Thanks @jamieanderson1968 for running this month.

 

[jamieanderson1968]

Thanks everyone it was a blast. I had intended to actual participate but had a lot of crap to deal with at work so I just had a tough time getting going with it. Damn I hate budget season.

But August is tomorrow and I am jumping back into the challenge.

cat power - you are free

Everybody come together

Everybody get together

It's okay if you can stand to let her dance
It's okay it's your right, come on and take a chance
True romance, when you dance

Don't be in love with the autograph.
Just be in love when you scream that song
on and on
Free
