Heard the tale of romance?

Spoiler alert: the story doesn’t end with palaces & regal dress.

Dave Van Ronk: Folksinger. I would have loved to explore the Greenwich folk scene in the early 60s. So much creativity and fantastic music. And the chance to buy Dave Van Ronk a drink. #ArtIsResistance #vinyl #vinylcommunity #vinylrecords #nowplaying #nowspinning #music

Hang down your head

The second song on the album after Clap Hands to reinvigorate an old air. He's even more successful this time, turning it into a powerful, direct song of lost love, with a snare you could set your watch by.

#SouthwesternCountryRock - with an edge - and at its finest. A little too edgy for Bernie Leadon, who left because the band moved away from country.

Many albums were recorded by #GreenwichVillage folk artists in the 60s. This was perhaps the most representative of their shared ethos.

Ochs, seated against a wall of torn political posters, with Goldwater’s under his ass. I’m still stunned that I was able to find this record - that the owner or inheritor was willing to part with such an historic treasure.

#Greenwich might be better known for Beatniks than #Jazz, the #BeBop guys kept the cafe lights on - and the #VillageVanguard had studio-level acoustics.

Whether rocking fast or strumming slow, this pre-grunge sister act reminds us that Seattle was making big noise long before we'd ever heard of Eddie Vedder.

New copy of Kind of Blue is really nice. Only been able to spin disk one so far. Nice to have the corrected speed and really looking forward to hearing the alternate take of flamenco sketches. Love it. #music #jazzsky #vinyl #vinylcommunity #jazz #nowspinning
Miles Davis kind of blue record.

The front cover of the 1982 LP record “Signals” by Rush sits on a wooden “now playing” record display stand placed on top of the turntable that’s playing the album. A muted television plays in the background.
