So, that last Shovels and Rope took ages to get through. Jeez.
Anyway, before hopping to the Zooey and Sara(h)s of the world, I thought it'd be a good opportunity to clean and play some newer grabs that have been waiting towards the end of the alphabet, especially as my "keep these in the kitchen to clean" stash is getting a tad unwieldy.
160 - Yellowman - Mister Yellowman
This was one of about six pickups I grabbed at a local store which took in a decent sized Reggae haul. There's a severe lack of Reggae/Dancehall in my collection so it felt like the right opportunity to pick up some Reggae and give it a run. This one appears to be an early or original pressing from the early 80s in pretty decent shape, especially after a cleaning. Very excited to give it a run, and the others a try soonish.
Ok, this sounds so good. What a cool damn vibe.

161 - Passion Pit - Manners
I had been holding out for a while hoping for a new run to come out or something and finally it appeared on Rarewaves, and they actually shipped it for once. Like, I have a not-so-fun headache today and I still had to spin it. One of my favorite 2010 albums all things considered and a real beacon of that little electro-pop/indie wave we had for a while there. Blasting it as much as my head can stand.

Kamasi Washington - The Epic
Cleaners from Venus - Living With Victoria Grey
One of my favourite ever jazz records from this or any era, and superlative but cult UK indie pop from the 80s by Martin Newell, Giles Smith et al.

So, the intent was to just play the Ray Charles, so I took what I thought was the Ray Charles from the drying rack, put it on, and thought...wow I didn't know Slip Sliding was a cover. He sure does sound like Paul Simon here. Then I figured it out so here we are. I'm not too bright ok?
161 - Paul Simon - Greatest Hits, Etc.
162 - Ray Charles - Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music

Jesus, this so good. Must of been nice to have Booker T, The MG's, and The Memphis Horns as your backup band too!

I got the AP 45 recently and it's incredible. Don't have this one to compare to though

163 - Funkadelic - Maggot Brain
This might be the most beat up record I own, but man, it's still Funkadelic and it still slays. Plus, given I can't bring myself to pay the yuge prices for well conditioned originals, this kind of meets the happy medium. It will probably continue to rock out after I am buried six feet deep at this rate. Sounds amazing on the good parts and on the bad parts... Well let's just say it's lived some lives.
