What's Spinning

Btw, now that I've listened to the whole album this one has jumped high up on my best of the year list. Well worth a listen, especially to the b-side tracks.

Stupify tells me it came out last year 🤔

Kids have been up for 2 hours, don’t feel like I got an extra hour, Primus kind of Sunday morning 🍄! Saw this tour at my first and only Bonnaroo.

Primus sucks.
 
Playing this for another thread but it's sorely underappreciated and sadly timely.

Tom Robinson has always been a champion of the oppressed as well as being one of the first openly gay musical artists. He put it all out there in 1977. He has absolutely no fear. Tom's music revolves around eroding human rights and standing up for the marginalized. He deserves so much more recognition than he gets.

Three songs from this record.

PSA: the first video uses the N word spoken in character by someone who minimizes African-Americans.

Tom doesn't attempt to hide his anger and disdain in the second clip.

The third clip is just a fun, rocking song.

If this is your introduction to Tom Robinson, I encourage you to dig deeper and channel his strength and passion for the next four years.
