Poppy - A Very Poppy Christmas (2020)

This shipped on November 30th. It arrived today after spending 3 weeks at the DC distribution center. Thank you, Republican members of Congress for not giving a fuck about funding the USPS. ANYWAY, great EP. Very lo-fi recordings here, I love the aesthetic. Poppy was the last show I saw, back in February, at the now tragically closed for good U Street Music Hall (also in DC, coincidentally). Can't wait for her next album!

Tony Allen and Hugh Masekela - Rejoice

I made an initial ranking of my favourite records of this year, and this album is the one that climbed the most after I actually listened to everything again. It is so well recorded, maybe the best-sounding record involving Tony Allen of all. It makes you feel right in the middle of his drum kit. And I love the interplay between the two. A fabulous album.

This should have been released by somebody back in 1978 when it was made....not shelved for 20 years and all the various overdub versions
released instead.

Caroline Records ‎– CAR 7520-1, 1997/?
