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!

#228: The Max Roach Trio - Featuring the Legendary Hassan

#229: Silvio Rodríguez - Rabo de Nube

One of my favorite albums by Cuban singer-songwriter Silvio Rodriguez. The title track is absolutely beautiful not only in its lyrics, but also due to its melody and inventive harmony. Charles Lloyd, who is one of my favorite sax players of all time, has incorporated this song to his repertoire in the last decade, even releasing a live album with that title.
