Picked this up in Ohio at the record store I’ve been going to since I was 13. Delvon Lamarr, Jimmy James and David McGraw, recorded live at a record store (!) in 2018.

Nice surprise — wasn’t marked as colored vinyl!

Sublime live recording.

GOOD MORNING SOLDIERS!

Easing into the workday with a little Sky Blue Miles. This is “Turnaround,” taken from the complete “On the Corner” sessions. Which is some of my favorite Miles. 😎

Hope today is good to you.

OK, I’m cheating here on no. 5 — but at the time I heard this I didn’t know Kill ‘Em All existed. So this will always feel like their debut.

WHAT. A. RECORD.

Changed the game completely. Opened up a thrilling new world. A “you can DO THAT with music?” moment.

Obsessed.

1980. Again.

Though Halford indoctrinated me first, Geoff Tate’s superhuman range on “Queen of the Ryche” BLEW. MY. MIND.

Every aspect of his voice is brilliant; he inhabits songs with a conviction a LOT of metal vocalists are incapable of.

Never fails to give me chills.

And THIS monster deliverers another joyous, life-changing shock to the system in 1980 as well — the debut of IRON FUCKING MAIDEN.

As my pal @chuckborowicz.bsky.social can attest, “Transylvania” is a harbinger of greatness — then and to come.

Ronnie James Dio came fully into his own with HOLY DIVER in 1980.

Every last bit of his fearsome, rich vocal range and songwriting ability is on display here — and it all sounds effortless.

Vivian Campbell is a force of nature.

As the kids say, all killer, no filler.

Blizzard of Ozz.

Life-changing.

The world never looked the same after this record (along with a few others that showed up around this time).

There never was a voice like Ozzy’s — and there never will be.

On a My Morning Jacket Trip since last night…made it to this absolute gem of an album, “At Dawn.”

HIGHLY recommended.

Just finished this beautiful love letter to discovering the power of music by @spitznagel.bsky.social — “Rock Stars on the Record.” SO many echoes of my own experiences, proof that we all share more than we realize.

HIGHLY recommended.

What’s better than a rekkid store?

A rekkid store INSIDE A BREWERY!

Shout out to whoever curates Right Brain Records in Columbiana, OH — stellar,
Wonderfully eclectic selection and even the used inexpensive rekkids are in really good condition.

Shout out to Birdfish Brewery as well 🤘🏼

What’s better than new rekkids?

Snagged a beautiful etched copy of the Cult’s “Beyond Good & Evil” from the Record Connection in Niles, OH.

(Where I shopped as a younger lad 😎)
