Haven’t done this in a while, but I thought I’d share something I’ve been listening to recently:
On the turntable today:
“New Moon Shine” by James Taylor (1991)
This is my favorite James Taylor album, even though I do enjoy his 1970’s heyday. It’s the same way I feel about Van Morrison’s (1/2)

Today’s album: “s/t” by Vanilla Fudge (1967)
A cornerstone of psychedelic rock becoming prog rock (alongside the Moody Blues, Pink Floyd, and the Beatles’ offerings from that same year), this album has out-of-left-field covers from the Beatles to the Surpremes… definitely give this album a listen.

I haven’t done this in a couple of days, but:
Today’s record: “Idlewild” by Everything But The Girl (1988)
Most people know them for their dance-pop song from 1996, “Missing”, but these two have had a full career before that, making breezy pop like what’s on this album… I am a sucker for this.

Today’s record is:
“um minuto além” by Zizi Possi (1981)
My wife is Brazilian, and during my first trip to her home country earlier this summer, she introduced me to Brazilian popular music, primarily the works of Zizi Possi.
She has a beautiful voice with an almost sophisti-pop sound behind her

Tonight’s album is another case of me paying my condolences to a fallen musician in the best way I know how…
“Children of Sanchez” by Chuck Mangione (1978)
Definitely a more interesting listening experience than his other output at the same time… I believe this was a soundtrack to the movie of the

Today’s record… “Regatta De Blanc” by The Police (1979).
This record is slightly better than their first, but it’s nowhere near Synchronicity. “message in a bottle” and “walking on the moon” are great singles, and “bring on the night” has a guitar line similar to “edge of seventeen” by Stevie Nicks

For today’s record, I figured I’d pay tribute to an artist who passed away today.
Black Sabbath’s 1976 compilation “We Sold our Soul for Rock n’ Roll”… it’s the only Ozzy or Black Sabbath record in my collection - I never really got into them, but I figured I’d pay my condolences in the best way

Here’s what’s on the table today:
Spanky & Our Gang’s 1967 s/t album.
This album sounds like the Mamas and the Papas without John Phillips’ songwriting. It has a cover of “Trouble” from the Music Man and a song about 5 love definitions. Also one of their signature songs “Lazy Day”. Good record!

I want to do something other than complain about the government right now…
I like listening to vinyl records, and maybe I can start to share some of the stuff I listen to.
Today, I have “Moroccan Roll” by Brand X on the table, a 1977 jazz fusion album featuring Phil Collins on drum. Great record.

Journalists, pundits, and politicians, you are actively harming the country if you go along with their horrifying branding and call it Alligator Alcatraz.
Call it the Trump-Noem concentration camp and make them screech about it it every time.

The inverted flag isn’t disrespect — it’s a distress signal from naval traditions, used to show grave danger to life or property.
With a lawless man set to take power after attempting to overthrow the government, America is in extreme danger.
