NOW SPINNING: Her's - Invitation To Her's

This one means a lot to me. For anyone who doesn't know, read this article:


I discovered Her's last year, and have been obsessed since. Highly recommended for fans of Julian Casablancas.

RIP, Her's.

 
John Coltrane & Lee Morgan ‎– The Best Of Birdland: Volume 1. (Roulette, 1963 First Stereo Pressing)

Very interesting one this. Its 2 separate sessions (A-side is Coltrane and B-side is Morgan) which were NOT recorded at Birdland. Roulette Records was founded by music mogul Morris Levy, who also owned the Birdland club. He partook in some pretty shady business (like claiming the rights to any song performed at Birdland without the musicians knowing), but he also used the club to approach musicians to record for his label, which is what happened here.
