My 8:22 Sunday morning vinyl is the always enjoyable "Far East Goes Western" by Tan Shindo because I love how they adapt the traditional Asian instruments to play these classic western tunes.

My 11:42 am snowed in vinyl is the brilliant funk masterpiece debut from Betty Davis. I wish that there was available footage of her live performances. Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons saw one of her shows and decided that they couldn't have her as an opening act because she'd steal the show.

My 11:11 am snowed in vinyl is "From Harper Valley To The Mountain Top: by Jeannie C. Riley who had the hit "Harper Valley P.T.A." back in the day. This album bounces back and forth between secular and christian music. I think my wife bought this one too at some point.

From my wife and I at the Vinyl Exile podcast show, We're wishing you all a safe and blessed holiday week. Stay strong. Be supportive of others. Spread love and compassion. My heart goes out to those at my former job who recently got laid off. My next podcast episode will post in December 2025.

Its nice when you can listen to your own music at your job through earbuds. I did that for the first time today and it made the hours go by faster.

My 4:45 pm vinyl is "Sinatra & Strings" by Frank Sinatra with the arrangements by Don Costa. I always wondered why they called him "Chairman Of The Board". Its also cool to see that Reprise label with his face on it spinning on my turntable.
