November 2021 Vinyl Spin Challenge Thread: High wind through the trees, falling November leaves, a weak sun hanging low, summer seems so long ago...

Cloudy in the low 50's today - some rain. It's been windy the last couple days.

This is the soundtrack/score for the 2016 documentary. If you want to watch it, it is on the Criterion blu ray.

Jerry Garcia - Run for the Roses (RSD 2018, Orange and Black marbled, pressed by Pallas)

Just showed up this morning and it feels like a good rainy day album. I was really worried that this would not play because there are two obvious flaws in the vinyl, but so far it sounds incredible.

6. Song Title "November Rain"
Play an album that fits perfectly into a cold gray rainy day.

While there are plenty of songs about sunny Southern California, there are also grey days with frayed edges. This is the perfect album for those days. See the sky about to rain...

Play a record by redhead or if you don't have one, play a red record.

Redd Foxx - “Laff of the Party”. Long shorts with tall socks and loafers were actually a sartorial thing in the late 50’s.

7. Daylight Savings Time Ends

Pierre Moerlen's Gong - Time is the Key

I hate daylight savings time. Leaving work in the dark upsets me way more than going to work in the dark. Hopefully this album will help me get over my mood, otherwise my students might be watching documentaries in class tomorrow!

It hasn't rained where I'm at in a few weeks, but November rains are usually cold and grey like the album art. The music on this album warms up the room on those cold rainy days.
