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!

#129: Interpol - Turn On The Bright Lights

After a month-long break due to vacations and a very long queue of new purchases, I'm back with my project. Here's Interpol debut album, one I listened to countless times back when I was in college, and my gateway to post-punk revival and post-punk in general.
 
Dexter Gordon ‎– Go! (Blue Note, 1985 French Cadre Rouge Audiophile Edition)

I have a chunky section in my shelf of records I want to upgrade and this is definitely one of them. Its a DMM pressing and while its actually a decent sounding record (I don't generally have as much of a hate for the DMM's than other people seem to have), there's just a flatness there that I know would be lifted with a proper pressing. The record itself is also pretty damn warped :rolleyes:
