“Turn! Turn! Turn!” was the Byrds’ second album, which cemented the band’s claim to fame. The Byrds’ jingle-jangle electric 12-string sound was a significant influence that changed rock music forever. This particular LP is the OG with the Columbia 2-eye center label. #thebyrds #vinyl #classicrock

Multi-Grammy winner Roberta Flack passed away today, 24 February 2025, aged 88. Flack’s debut album, “First Take,” sold me from the get-go with her melding of jazz, R&B, and soul. Roberta Flack’s legacy in the pantheon of greats is assured. She’ll be missed. 😢🙏🏽
