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!
#114: Herbie Hancock - Maiden Voyage

This is one of my favorite albums of all time in any genre, one that would be a strong "Desert island" contender. The lineup is pretty much unbeatable, the performances are great, and the different approaches to the sea topic throughout the compositions make this one of the most focused and accomplished jazz albums I've ever heard. @mitchwagz hooked me up with this great Japanese copy, which totally makes justice for the quality of the music.

Glad you’re enjoying it!

REO Speedwagon - You Can Tune A Piano, But You Can't Tuna Fish. (1978)

This was one of the first records I ever bought, alongside Journey's Infinity and Raised On Radio. Grabbed all 3 on my first trip down to my local record store, over 2 years ago when this crazy hobby of mine started. Nice to relisten to some of your first records! REO has so many classics, and they were my first real concert, so they hold a special place in my heart 💙
