What's Spinning

[MadLucas]

I really hope they release single albums from this comp. I like them all to a certain degree, but I love this one.

I'd be shocked if they didn't, my understanding is Calvin owes a number of people a fair amount of money.
Not gonna lie, I started to tear up near the end of "Bury The Hammer." I've bought their albums on a number of different formats, including the first CD box set (autographed by the band!) and I really, really miss this group. Two guitars, two singers, one set of drums, and that much evolution of their sound over 10 years? Truly inspiring.

I'm currently working on my Top 20 Purchases of 2019 list.

May start to post them this week or next....whenever I get done with it.

Happy birthday Bob Stinson.

The Replacements - For Sale: Live At Maxwell's 1986

 

[LeeVing]

Should get Vol 3 tomorrow...but playing these tracks that didn't make the vinyl.




With as much as a clusterfuck as these releases have been, I expect a box set to be released eventually.

Sonny Rollins - The Bridge (RCA Victor, 1962 First Mono Pressing, Deep Groove)

A fantastic 'come-back' album from one of the sax legends.

Lee Morgan - The Sidewinder (Blue Note, 1964 First Stereo Pressing)

One of the most recognisable jazz songs? Perhaps. They pressed just over 4000 copies for its initial release and they ended up selling-out in just 2 days. The Sidewinder went on to be one of Blue Notes biggest sellers and even made the Billboard charts (which was unheard of for a jazz album).

Johnny Griffin - Introducing Johnny Griffin (Blue Note, 2019 BN80 series)

A superb album from a fantastic saxophonist. Love this BN80 series, I have actually only picked up a few this year but theres a good few on next years list that caught my eye.

Mos Def - Black on Both Sides
1999 - Rawkus - Duncan Stanbury cut



Thanks again Santa @LeSamourai! One of the quietest albums I've gotten in a while, new or otherwise. Bass is huge. Maybe why the grooves are so spread out that the deadwax is comically tiny:

It is bittersweet that I have made it to the final LP of the boxset, a singles compilation.



It hurts my heart to think that a band over the course of 10 years with two guitars, a set of drums, and two vocalists were able to alter their sound and aesthetic as much as they did… And will probably never make an album again.

But I am just so grateful that their music ever existed in the first place. I know my life is a much better place with these records in it.
