What's Spinning

The agutierrezb 2019 record collection challenge

So I've decided to embark on my own personal challenge, which consists of listening every record in my collection before the end of the year. My record collection is not that big -only ~250-, but I still feel like there are a bunch of records I don't give enough attention to, while still adding more titles to my shelves.

For this reason I've set a couple of rules in order to play every record at least once before December 31st: I'll play at least one record a day, going from front to back in the way I have them sorted in my shelf. I can play a different record (i.e. Not the next one in alphabetical order) if I feel like listening to something else in any given moment, but at least one of the records I spin in the day has to be the LP in turn.

I didn't take pictures for the first two days, but I'll try to document the process from here on, so I'll be posting daily on this thread. Wish me luck!

Just mentioned on the Jazz thread that I believe its the last day to vote for the Jazz FM Awards 2020. There strong competition for the 'PRS FOR MUSIC UK JAZZ ACT OF THE YEAR', so Im listening to all 3 nominees today starting with....

Joe Armon-Jones ‎– Starting Today (Brownswood Recordings, 2018)

A killer keys player that seems to pop up in all the great London albums being released. I managed to see him live last year (was supposed to see him at the Cross The Tracks festival again this year but its been cancelled :( )

My collection #302-303

Joe Armon-Jones & Maxwell Owin - Idiom
Kokoroko

Obviously, I'm coordinating my spins with @Selaws. This is an early one from Joe Armon-Jones and I was a bit gobsmacked to see this goes for a pretty penny now given I only paid a fiver for it (it is decent). And the Kokoroko EP is 🔥, I just wish they'd release a full length so we can see what they're really capable of.
