Spinning Sunday or: The Listening 5/16/20

Salutations™!!

I feel we’re getting closer to being able to rummage through some used vinyl in the next month or so, but until then Jonathan is still delivering vinyl from Underdog Records all during the week. I think sales have been okay for him but I’m sure he could use some more. Head over to the Underdog Records website, or follow on Instagram (Jonathan’s preferred method) and Facebook to see what you can purchase.

And, per usual, this week’s streaming listens comes from Discogs’ shuffle feature and it has to be an album that I own on vinyl (outside of peripheral things like Beeswax Vinyl & More listens), that way it’s like listening to my vinyl but with headphones from my computer whilst The BCPF works 10 feet away. Here’s the list (this is in order of listens):

  • Traffic – When The Eagle Flies
  • Stevie Wonder – Fulfillingness’ First Finale
  • Pink Floyd – Ummagumma
  • Roger Waters – The Pros And Cons Of Hitch Hiking (I didn’t even realize I had listened to Pink Floyd and Roger Waters back-to-back. Hmm…)
  • The Clash – London Calling
  • Seals & Crofts – Seals & Crofts Sing The Songs From The Original Motion Picture Sound Track “One On One”
  • Elton John – Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
  • Bad Company – Straight Shooter
  • Sonny & Chér – In Case You’re In Love
  • Argent – All Together Now
  • Rush – Exit…Stage Left
  • The Velvet Underground & Nico – The Velvet Underground & Nico (The first time I’ve ever listened to it and not hated it. Still don’t care for it, but didn’t hate it)
  • Dwight Yoakam – Buenas Noches From A Lonely Room
  • Small Faces – 78 In The Shade
  • Coldplay – Parachutes (No apologies… one of my favorite albums of all time)
  • Michael McDonald – If That’s What It Takes

A pretty good list. Then The BCPF and I listened to these, on vinyl, yesterday:

  • Marvin Gaye – What’s Going On
  • Daryl Hall & John Oates – H2O
  • Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers – Long After Dark
  • Talking Heads – Stop Making Sense
  • The Decemberists – Picaresque
  • Pink Floyd – Wish You Were Here

Again, check out Underdog Records’ social and web stuffs. Buy records. Use Discogs to keep track of your collection and use it’s groovy (see what I did there) shuffle feature.

Until tomorrow, keep spinnin’…
Scorp out!
