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!

#117: Jim Hall - Concierto



Jim Hall, Paul Desmond, Chet Maker, Ron Carter, Steve Gadd and Roland Hanna, that's all I'll say. Oh yeah, that, and also that Desmond's tone and melodic creativity was out of this world (I said I would say that every time I played a record where he performed, and I think I have kept my word so far).

I'm spinning this right now, and guess what song comes on? Unexpected! But, I love it.

Radiohead - In Rainbows

After seeing @DeadwaxDude spin this for the challenge thread yesterday I had to get my own copy out to spin tonight. It still amazes me how great this pressing sounds!

NOW SPINNING: Redman - Muddy Waters

This one has been on my wantlist for awhile. Was a bit bummed to hear that the skits are not in the LP - those definitely tie the album together for me. None the less, kick ass album!

1987 US pressing. Just picked this vinyl up used. Really liking this. I’ve spun my original CD version countless times and it sounds good. This vinyl version looks/sounds like new and it has been stored in a mo-fi sleeve. It is pressed on a dark trans-black vinyl. Very little surface noise. Onward to side two. Sweet.

Metallica - ...And Justice For All (1988)

Bass or no bass, best Metallica album. This is my US OG (I also have a SK OG). Sounds incredible for a DMM. Thrashy goodness
