Day 12: FOMO that I haven't spun in awhile
The Clash-The Clash

Record store day is a day full of FOMO for limited edition variants of many things. Like my previous post of Black Sabbath, a colorful variant of this classic is something that wouldn't appeal to present day me, but losing that FOMO for these type of releases has been a great way to stop throwing my money at certain companies. This sounds great though, so no sense in replacing it.

Day 12: FOMO buy you haven’t spun in awhile

I grabbed this when VMP put up their last few copies after replacements and everything. I should spin this one more often, I forgot how good it was.

I have a lot of FOMO albums that deserve another listen actually, I should make a point to go back through them.
 
Day 11 - The FOMO Was Strong in This One

Big Smoke - Time is Golden

I remember this was built up pretty good back when VMP released it. I didn't know the band's material at all at the time, but Storf really loved this one and pushed it pretty hard if I remember right...so I jumped on it blind.

So I decided this was the one for today, especially since I haven't played it in awhile. When I couldn't find it, I realized I had moved it to my 'to sell or trade' bin. I think it's been years since I have played it.

Can someone help me figure out what this means? I'm not sure

i suppose the way I would interpret it is that it feels from the songs that the artist is engaged in a form of conversation, be that direct or abstract, with you the listener or some third party, either known or unkown. I think there is often a feeling of emotional intimacy in what I would understand as conversational music.

That said i should probably stop talking and allow @Fleetwood-Matt to say what it means to him.

I figured this one would be questioned once we got to it. And this is exactly how i meant it. There are artist (like personally paul simon and margo price) whose music feels very personal and intimate to me, as if I am having a deep conversation with them just by listening to the album.

this all being said the themes are totally up to interpretation and if you read it differently or have a different take on it thats more than ok
 
The way I thought of it was an album that evokes conversation. Like something maybe controversial or something that would be interesting to talk about how it came to be. So, there’s that way of thinking.

I might change my pick now, though, because finding an album where it feels personal like the artist is talking to me seems pretty interesting and fun.

The album I have in mind would fit both of these definitions 👀
