Salutations™!!
The BCPF and I have been quarantined and like I said last week, we actually don’t have time during the week to listen to records, even though we have been surrounded by them all day every day for the past three weeks. But, when The BCPF is doing her thing and I am doing mine, I go under headphones and listen to streaming. Yes, believe it or not, I do stream and have CDs. It’s not all about the vinyl. It’s just my preferred way. But, when I am streaming for the home time, I still do a random grab with Discogs and that means it’s stuff that I already have on vinyl. So, this past Wednesday, I think – days are running together – I had a good listen of the following (sorry about the weird black border on the pic):
- Randy Newman – Sail Away
- Roger Hodgson – In The Eye Of The Storm
- Journey – Frontiers
- Vangelis – Chariots Of Fire
- Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers – Hard Promises
- New Edition – New Edition
Then yesterday, The BCPF and I listened to some vinyl like we usually do on Saturdays. Here’s what we listened to, in no particular order:
- The Motels – All Four One
- Sam Beam & Jesca Hoop – Love Letter For Fire
- Daryl Hall & John Oates – Voices
- Paul Simon – Still Crazy After All These Years
- Roberta Flack – Killing Me Softly
- The Costello Show Featuring Elvis Costello – King Of America
- Wings – Wings At The Speed Of Sound
- Okkervil River – The Stand Ins
- Steely Dan – Aja
- Ella Fitzgerald – Ella In Rome – The Birthday Concert
- Bob Seger And The Silver Bullet Band – Night Moves
- Marvin Gaye – Moods Of Marvin Gaye
So, there you have it. Make sure you follow Underdog Records on social media, particularly Instagram. That way you know what he’s putting out for sale. Also, check out the website as Jonathan’s web store is back in business! You can pay via Venmo, CashApp or PayPal and he can bring it to you or ship it for $4 (that’s unlimited LPs for that price). Also, use Discogs to catalog your music collection, no matter the format.
Until tomorrow, keep spinnin’…
Scorp out!
