tbh i feel kinda sad... not because the music is bad.. its alright (eh i dunno if im picking it up personally but i get the choice)... but i feel there wasn't as much debate and confusion and we figured it out in a week..... its fun when we are in panic

See I wasnt going to say anything for this same reason and I knew once the picture was posted I had it, but I got impatient. Only posted the cover though fwiw

The Jam are from England! Parts of the nation might well protest but it is most definitely in Europe, even if they remain insane and leave the EU!

also legit i didn't the jam were there... i just was looking through and assumed it was all the japanese stuff was there

bad music nerd of me

tbh i feel kinda sad... not because the music is bad.. its alright (eh i dunno if im picking it up personally but i get the choice, just not big on the everly brothers style sound)... but i feel there wasn't as much debate and confusion and we figured it out in a week..... its fun when we are in panic

I get what you're saying but I wouldn't feel too bad. Knowing @Joe Mac next month will be the most panic-inducing yet ^_^

i hope so. Im trying to come up with some madness. I’m hoping my prolific posting hides any patterns or ideas or even just that no one can be arsed trawling through it...

then I‘m in control

We didn't really get to showcase our asshattery too much in this thread. This dang job is getting in the way.

wow... usually we wait until a chosen date to announce the ROTM but holy crap this came very suddenly

I announced way earlier than I was supposed to. I got too excited.

If Pako would've saved the picture for later once he saw my guess, I wouldnt have had much to go on but my word!!! He rolled the red carpet (longsleeve) out for me

And yet another pick that I wouldn't have discovered if not for this forum.

Our picks have been so diverse and so cool. I really don't see the need anymore for voldemort's "curation". And by "curation" I mean, whatever album a label throws at them to hype.

oh yeah, they’re just a shop now.

One vote here for “can't be arsed trawling thru it”

 

[ByersVinyl]

I applaud the skillz exhibited here. Just for that i bought it blind, and because its so similar to the fun i got from my first yrs membership at VMP.

Looking forward to spinning it tomorrow

So I had a listen on streaming. Like what I heard on my quick play through.

Ordered!

Love it when you guys make me discover new music like this.

Seems like this is going to be another month.

Summer Sun was a standout the first time I ran through the album and now I think its in my top 10 songs of the year!!!! Thank you for the amazing pick @ThePakoBuelna

Don’t we all

I don't! I grabbed the last one from amazon Spain!

 

[supahypeag]

Rosalia, on the other hand, is taking her sweet time getting here.

I wonder if I ordered it correctly.....

I really need to learn Spanish

This is a pretty inspired playlist they put together on spotify:

"Feelin' Blue"

Ten Paces Pre-Show Playlist

Playlist · Ruen Brothers · 20 songs · 171 likes

(Though it would need Chris Isaak's "Blue Hotel" to be more complete)

tbh i more wish that the host didn't just immediately say its that and let us wait for them to write great reading notes and further listening (still did a good job)

Great Pick! I was completely unfamiliar the Ruen Brothers but everything I have heard thus far has been great! Just purchased off Amazon (13 Remaining, More on the way). Discogs shows it's QRP too. Bully for you, @ThePakoBuelna !
