What's Spinning

Arctic Monkeys - Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not.

I always felt conflicted when VMP released an album I loved - yeah, I liked it, but I already had it, but given the choice between re-buying something I already have on vinyl or something new I’ll always go new. The album is still great though, and it does sound a little different to me on vinyl, especially the big hits. Still think the video version of Dancefloor is better than the album version though.

Glass Animals - How to be a Human Being.

VMP liked inoffensive indie pop, and this is a perfect example. If I’d had Spotify at this time I would have listened and skipped, but now I have it I’ll give it an occasional spin. If I’m being absolutely brutal, but if this sound musically like the free music used on YouTube videos - Caisey Neidsat would definitely jump on a first class flight to this...

Also got the Secret 7 for this month, which is a bonus.

Fun fact, my copy of this has been on the cover of HiFi Choice magazine (on the platter of a turntable), more times than I have listened to it (three).

NOW SPINNING: The House Guests - My Mind Set Me Free


A slab of Cincinnati hard funk slammers - most reissued (legally) for the first time! Post JB's / Pre-P-funk outfits headed up by brothers Catfish & Bootsy Collins along with a Cincinnati who's-who of top club players who could turn it out night after night after night in places like The Psychedelic Grave or The Round Up Club - that featured a caged bear in the club! This selection, hand picked by Bootsy, highlights that youthful output under various names as The House Guests, The Complete Strangers and Bootsy, Phelps & Gary. The monikers may have changed, but what they brought to the stage every night - leaving the club and audience devastated - never did.

IN QUEUE:

Ozzy Ozbourne - Blizzard Of Ozz

The Roots - Game Theory
 
New review turntable in place and is tradition, it plays the same first record that every new turntable (or an existing turntable after a cart or arm change) plays.

No, I have no idea how or why this came about but it did and now I can’t stop or clowns will eat me. Or something.

Looking forward to the review of the Concept and the active side of things in particular!
