#Saturdayspinning my favourite album of the last 10 years - Sturgill Simpson’s 2016 breakout album A Sailor’s Guide to Earth. A twangy, trippy and rockin protest album. App killer, no filler. #whothefuckissturgillsimpson

Saturday morning #nowspinning - Stones 1968 classic Beggars Banquet. 1st of 4 straight masterpieces that make up a 4 album run that’s as good as any. Beggars to Exile is pretty much the peak of Rock. Zeppelin I to IV is right there and wild they were basically the same years. What a time for music.

Hard not to love this though…

Sunday morning #nowspinning - Traveling Wilbury’s Vol.1. Finally found this on a FB auction is and happily put in top bid. Seminal album of my youth; I have vivid memories of listening on the back roads of New Brunswick. And it definitely made me dive into all of the members’ catalogs. #vinylsky

Saturday morning #nowspinning - Gregg Allman’s 1987 solo album I’m No Angel. Title track is a classic and a banger. The rest…isn’t great. The (incredibly 80’s) photo on the back looks like the album sounds. #vinylsky

#Nowspinning on Truth & Reconciliation Day; Gord Downie’s haunting album Secret Path. It’s musically brilliant but a tough listen/watch. It’s also important and maybe Gord’s most cherished legacy.
You can, and should, watch it all here - www.youtube.com/live/yGd764Y....

Sunday morning #nowspinning Sly & the Family Stone’s 1970 Greatest Hits compilation. A great way to kick start a sunny late summer Sunday. Reminds me that I need to watch the Sly doc released earlier this year. #sundayspinning #vinylsky

Sunday morning #nowspinning - Canadian icon Gordon Lightfoot’s 1971 album Summer Side of Life. Classic Lightfoot sound and the title track is one of his best IMO. #vinylsky
August 17, 2025 at 2:08 PM
Sunny Sunday #nowspinning - the Allman Brothers 1975 album Win, Lose or Draw. The whole album is good but the title track is an all-timer. #allmans #vinylsky

New Brunswick Day weekend #nowspinning - The Hypochondriacs 2022 album Waitin’. These guys are one of the best bands to come out of NB in years. They put on a killer live show but the studio work gives you a great taste of it - check’em out! #vinylsky #saturdayspinning #newbrunswick

Saturday morning #nowspinning. 50 years old and still classic after all these years. Album of the year at the Grammys in 1976.

Grooving into last day of vacation with this absolute classic. Dixie Chicken is a year older than me and in way better shape. #nowspinning #vinylsky

Some mornings just call for the classics. Never disappoints. #nowspinning #vinylsky #darksideofthemoon

In AZ for work and it’s currently hotter in Freddy than it is in Phoenix. Wild.

#nowspinning some sweet harmonies from Fleet Foxes on a Sunny Saturday morning. Fixing to be a beauty day in Freddy… #vinylsky

Wide open Sunday schedule and starting the day with this view. Taking Santa’s advice today. Happy Fathers Day to everyone doing dad roles out there. #FathersDay

#nowspinning Harry Styles’ 2022 album Harry’s House. It won all the awards so it shouldn’t be surprising that it is really good but I wasn’t expecting to like it as much as I do. It was a gift for Holly but I play it more than she does. Nice sunny Sunday morning tunes! #sundayspinning #vinylsky
June 8, 2025 at 12:31 PM
#nowspinning on a quiet Sunday evening, Wilson Pickett’s 1966 album The Wicked Pickett. Soul Sunday isn’t really a thing in this house but maybe it should be. Pickett’s voice can help fight off any Sunday Scaries!

#nowspinning Saturday morning Springsteen. Born to Run is 50 years old this summer and, needless to say, this classic holds up.

This weather is weird so the weirdest fucking band of them all seemed appropriate this Sunday morning. Ween’s White Pepper is 25 years old this year and is a great intro to the wacky, wild and wonderful world of Ween. #nowspinning #vinylsky #ween

Saturday morning soul #nowspinning - Charles Bradley’s Changes. His last album, released a year before he passed in 2017. The title track is soul cover of 1972 Black Sabbath song and it’s exquisite.
May 24, 2025 at 12:11 PM
Mother’s Day #nowspinning The Band’s The Last Waltz. This is a top 10 all time album for me and, along with the movie, will always warmly remind me of my dearly departed stepmom Diane London. Happy heavenly Mothers Day to her ❤️ #mothersday
May 11, 2025 at 12:26 PM
Sunday morning #nowspinning Little Feat’s ‘The Last Record Album.’ Released 50 years ago this October. Not quite as good as Dixie Chicken but is good throughout and great in parts. Lowell George’s voice is smooth as butter. #sundayspinning

Saturday morning, #nowspinning some Tyler Childers. All killer, no filler album. Knew I liked him when I first saw the psychedelic All Your’n video.

If you see this, post your getaway vehicle.

1974 Mustang II - our actual getaway vehicle leaving Vancouver headed home cross-country after rugby season ended in 1997. We made it as far as Hope BC (2 hours away) before it broke down 🤣.
