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!

#189: Thelonious Monk - Criss cross

Monk's output is wide and diverse, and I definitely own less albuns of his than I should, but this has got to be one of the tightest Monk recordings I've ever heard. The band matches perfectly the leader's drive, cadance and mood, both supporting and lifting him. Plus, this reissue pressed at Pallas sounds great.

What a fantastic compilation of early ep’s and b-sides. 25 tracks spread over 3 lp’s, packaged in a triple LP sleeve with lyrics and photos. Highly recommended for any and all B&S fans out there.
