What's Spinning

@NathanRicaud, here's her review from another thread (read with caution):

I'm about to disappoint @NathanRicaud and @Rip_City.

I like What's Your Pleasure? but don't love it. It's clearly got a lot of talent behind it and is expertly produced + arranged, but it just feels... static, if that's the word? It's all a bit too subtle for me. There's not a lot of sonic variety and it kept blending into the background, not really holding my attention. I will spin it more and it will likely grow on me, but I can definitely see what @siremobunny meant by it being too faithfully disco. There's some boundary between me and the music, I recognize it's good but the music doesn't reach out and grab me enough to make an extra leap to greatness for me.

Jarv Is... "Beyond The Pale"
(Rough Trade 2020, indie exclusive pressing on translucent orange vinyl)

I just received this yesterday. Had streamed some of the tracks and liked them enough to pick this up. I can always use more Jarvis Cocker in my collection. So this is my first real spin of the LP. The vinyl sounds amazing - very quiet pressing. And I'm enjoying Jarvis Cocker giving me vibes of Leonard Cohen circa 1984.

Also, interestingly, this is a tip-on jacket with embossed lettering. Was this not supposed to be impossible? (#doggygate)
