Another one for #5debutalbums9094. Insofar as I was paying attention at the time, Belly were at least on my radar. And I’m enjoying them now! #johnsCDs #nowplaying

First up this morning for #5debutalbums9094. I haven’t listened to this in literal decades. Still sounds pretty fresh to my older ears. #johnsCDs #nowplaying

Photos from last night's Kevn Kinney - Peter Buck show at the Rialto Room in downtown Athens. Everyone was in for an extra treat as @millsish.bsky.social joined Kevn and Peter for the last three songs.

Thanks to @karenryanphoto.bsky.social for the lovely shots.

Gonna listen to #johnsCDs for #5debutalbums9094 in semi-alphabetical order with lots of skipping around. Julie @sabercatwoman.bsky.social vetoed Tori Amos and some others, and then chose this one. Loved it then, but haven’t listened in years. RIP Shannon Hoon #nowplaying

Only one more slab from #johnsvinyl remains for #5debutalbums9094 It’s a lock, so I’m gonna wait to play it. So I’m onto #johnsCDs (currently 47). A killer to kick them off. AiC is one of my wife’s fave bands (and now mine, too). She just came in to crank this up! RIP Layne Staley #nowplaying

Spun this 1964 surf-drag record. The group is called “The Woofers” and I can’t find much about them online. There is some suggestion that they were a renaming of The Dovells (and also know as The Scramblers). It’s not terrible, #johnsvinyl #wasplaying

Continuing to be inspired by the #500songs podcast @500songspodcast.bsky.social I picked this up last week and giving it a 1st spin. #BeachBoys #johnsvinyl #nowplaying

Do I need to add a lecture on the protein war to my syllabus?

Another Florida pickup on its 1st spin. I see #P-funk records, I buy #P-funk records. This is the 1st All-stars record, post break-up of #Parliament and #Funkadelic. Definitely an early 80s sound. #johnsvinyl #nowplaying

I picked this up at Bananas in St Pete last week and giving it a 1st spin. Listened once on 🍎 and knew I needed it. I now have the first 6 #Hawkwind records (and 2 others) in #johnsvinyl #nowplaying

Next up for #5debutalbums9094. Another contender and one that I listened to frequently in the day. Bob knows how to make angsty melodic noise. I’ve seen him solo a few times, but would love to catch one of the Sugar shows this year. #johnsvinyl #nowplaying

I’ve been so good with not looking forward while I catch up. I’m on episode 124 today. Maybe I’ll break my rule for this one and skip ahead. RIP Bob Weir. #500songs
Today we’re looking back at Episode 165: ‘Dark Star’ by the Grateful Dead.

Cocking in at 4.5 hours long, Andrew delves into the career of the American rock band - but also the historical and cultural context.

I’ve been looking forward to spinning this one. I have it in #johnsCDs but can’t remember the last time I spun it. Came across this sweet used copy right after #5debutalbums9094 was announced. I mostly missed the Britpop wave, but I’m diving in now. #johnsvinyl #nowplaying
January 12, 2026 at 5:57 PM
First spin today. #5debutalbums9094 Another contender. RIP Scott Weiland. #johnsvinyl #nowplaying
January 12, 2026 at 4:50 PM
Next up for #5debutalbums9094. I picked this up a few years ago and spun it a few times. It didn’t click for me then, so I’m giving it another try. My tastes have expanded in that period, so I’m hopeful #johnsvinyl #nowplaying
January 12, 2026 at 2:42 AM
Heading in now! #Bowie

Another one unearthed from my pile of records without outer sleeves. I have a couple of other Flesh For Lulu records which I quite like. Cover image from @discogsofficial.bsky.social

Unearthed this one from a pile with no outer sleeves in #johnsvinyl. Turns out to be a decent surf/drag record that cleaned up pretty nicely on the #humminguru Cover image from Discogs @discogsofficial.bsky.social #500songs #nowplaying

Another slab for #5debutalbums9094. And it’s a contender for me. I was not paying very much attention to new music in this period, but this one got a lot of play in my world. And it’s still great. #johnsvinyl #nowplaying
January 11, 2026 at 8:30 PM
Next up for #5debutalbums9094. Picked up this new repress a few months ago and was waiting for the right time to spin it. I would not have embraced this in 1990, but it sure sounds awesome now. RIP Andy Wood #johnsvinyl #nowplaying
January 11, 2026 at 7:36 PM
Picked this up on Friday after one listen on 🍎, based on the recc of SCV @indashadoz.bsky.social I’m immediately hooked. I’m now seeking their debut and #2. #johnsvinyl #nowplaying

Another yesterday pickup from vinyl cup in Des Moines. More Norman today makes me happy. #johnsvinyl #nowplaying

Saw this last night on the recommendation of Richard @ricrus77.bsky.social Was definitely a clever, enjoyable and overall lovely film

Post a pic of the venue where you saw your first concert and the band or artist.
