Rants and Ravings of a Misguided Dreamer and Observer
Salutations™!! Yesterday was a routine Saturday for The BCPF and me. Breakfast, wine, records. That was it. Here’s the haul: Pink Floyd – A Momentary Lapse Of Reason (Remixed & Updated) — 2×LP, 45 RPM. Gatefold sleeve + 24-page booklet. Remixed in 2019 from the original master tapes on Heavyweight 180g pressing. I had this on Cassette…
Salutations™!! Today is the 49th anniversary of one of my favorite Pink Floyd albums, Obscured by Clouds. I like it so much because it’s unlike any other Pink Floyd album; before or after it. It’s not the psychedelic prog stuff before it and certainly not the mind rock prog stuff that came after. This was…
Salutations™!! Third verse same as the first. A week’s worth at once. That’s how I roll these days, I guess. “Today” is the 41st anniversary of my favorite Pink Floyd album, one that people either love or hate. Generally, there’s not a lot of in-between. Of course, I’m talking about The Wall. I love concept…
Salutations™!! The BCPF and I went to Underdog on Friday instead of Saturday. Friday was my birthday and that’s one thing we did! You can backtrack and read the previous two days’ worth of blog posts to read more about that. Here’s the haul: Pink Floyd – Delicate Sound Of Thunder — Die cut outer box, remixed…
Salutations™!! The BCPF and I started our Saturday a little different this week. We went to breakfast at Bib’s Downtown and had some delicious biscuits and gravy and a great BLT. Then, we went to Underdog Records and, came home to listen! Also, just throwing this out there… if you get a chance to go…
Salutations™!! Yesterday was a pretty routine day. Well, maybe not. We got a late start. The BCPF finished her biggest project of the year, I was up way too late, yadda yadda yadda. We really only got to listen to a few records yesterday but we bought a few at Underdog Records. Here’s the haul:…
Salutations™!! Today is the 45th anniversary of Pink Floyd’s Wish You Were Here. I love this album and I couldn’t leave a tune off of it. I could possibly shorten “Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Parts 1-157)” but not eliminate the song altogether. However, my favorite tune on this album would have to be this…
Salutations™!! The BCPF and I both took Friday off, so we treated it like a “first Saturday.” We did the things we do for Saturday. We had breakfast/brunch/lunch, went to Underdog Records then came home and listened to what we got. We repeated the process on the actual Saturday, too, although that wasn’t the plan….
Salutations™!! So, as I said yesterday, I’m going to attempt to write my Monday blog post about the week of “my” listening. 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),…
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…
