Vinyl Me Please Classics

I really enjoyed SRT, but I think I’ll never spin it again, whereas that Phoenix record is so special to me, but I’m surprised, I didn’t think I’d want to pick it up when it was announced.
 
Just catching up on the July clues posted on Reddit. (EDIT: Reddit sucks and/or I suck at reading it. )

"Two of the three records are made by artists from Latin America." and "Yes, “from” to me would of course mean “born in”"
We already know that Essentials is Brazilian and Classics is Latin Jazz, but if it's a Latin American artist, would that eliminate Cal Tjader? As Tjader was an American who was known as "the most successful non-Latino Latin Musician."? Hmm...

"Two of the three records were made either in New York City, or very close to it." and "It's in a bordering state across the river from NYC"
Hackensack, NJ and Englewood Cliffs, NJ are across the GW Bridge from New York, right? To me this hints to an album recorded by Rudy Van Gelder. Van Gelder recorded 1660 albums, but if the "Not Blue Note clue" from the old forum is accurate, that could cut it down quite a bit.

Yes it would eliminate it. I asked straight out, and Storf said they were literally born in Latin America.
 
Tbh I hope SRT stays around until July. Definitely thinking about picking it up. I've heard so much about her and her impact on rock and roll, but I haven't actually listened to her music.

And if the pressing is half as good as Al Green (sure sounds like it), I definitely want in. Guess we'll see how long it sticks around.

Blossom Dearie taught me to never swap out Classics again...

So, as far as I can find, that would eliminate Willie Bobo as well as he was born in New York.

Interestingly, Antonio Carlos Jobin's Wave was recorded a RVG's Englewood Cliffs studio. Maybe that's the Brazillian essentials album? Because that album is definitely Bossa Nova, not Boogaloo.

Well, Storf did say that that experience unlimited record was go-go just because the band turned into a go-go band several years later even though it is definitely not a go-go record.

This would be nice. My Wave record could use an upgrade for sure.
