Spinning Sunday or: The Haul 8/14/21

Salutations™!! First, let me say, it’s the 52nd anniversary of the start of Woodstock today (you’d have known that if you listened to today’s episode of Beeswax Vinyl Daily). Second let me say that we listened to no records yesterday as we had a food and beverage event and a work event for The BCPF….

Salutations™!! We got very little listening in yesterday as we had several other “errands” or “just wanted to dos” but, we got some in. It was a chilly but beautiful day yesterday. Here’s the haul: Oasis – (What’s The Story) Morning Glory? — #378 on the RS list that matters and rises to #157 on the one…

Now Normal Chronicles or: Stripped

Salutations™!! Today is the 35th anniversary of Depeche Mode’s fantastically awesome Black Celebration album. Growing up, at least into my late 30s, I didn’t know much about and didn’t really like Depeche Mode. I learned. I learned well. I really dig them now, a lot. This is not a cover but them doing a live…

Spinning Sunday or: The Listens 4/25/20

Salutations™!! Dear sweet baby [enter deity here], please let this be over soon. If for no other reason, I want to get back to Underdog Records, see Jonathan and buy vinyl goodness. Amen.

Spinning Sunday or: The Listens 4/18/20

Salutations™!! As has been the case for the last month, we haven’t really gotten anything new because Underdog Records is affected just like everything else in the world right now. So, in the spirit of “normalcy,” or the “Now Normal” that I call it, I used my listening time during the week hitting Discogs’ awesome…

Spinning Sunday or: The Haul 3/7/20

Salutations™!! Early to rise and out the door. The BCPF and I went to Young Cardinal Cafe (again) and had a fantastic breakfast. We then went to Underdog Records and got just a few records and came home to listen. It was a good day. Happy Daylight Saving Time. There’s the haul: Cowboy Junkies – The Caution…

Spinning Sunday or: The Haul 2/1/20

Salutations™!! Happy Super Bowl Sunday! The BCPF and I went to Penny Path yesterday to celebrate Imbolc (where pancakes are generally the tradition but we went with crêpes). Then we hit up our friend Carly’s shop, VibesUp Winston-Salem, then to Jim & Dana Moody’s West End Coffeehouse and grabbed some pies for today’s big game…
