Spinning Sunday or: The Haul 8/8 and Otherwise

Salutations™!! You may be asking what that title means. Well, you also may not, but I’m going to tell you anyway. Remember the last time I did the “Spinning Sunday” (two weeks ago if you don’t remember)? I told you that we had gotten a good start on that TimeLife Great Men of Music series? Well,…

Spinning Sunday or: The Haul 7/18/20

Salutations™!! Yesterday was kind of rushed for The BCPF and me. I have new studio stuff and things aren’t going right with it so I was expecting a call from Sweetwater (which never happened). We ran to Underdog Records, grabbed lunch at BLL Rotisserie Factory, and came home to a big “nothing burger.” But, we…

Spinning Sunday or: The Haul 7/11/20

Salutations™!! The usual Saturday routine, The BCPF and I got up, ran to Underdog Records, had lunch, listened to records, had dinner, watched a movie (Bohemian Rhapsody, by the way). Here’s the haul: Andrew Bird – My Finest Work Yet — The BCPF and I saw Andrew Bird open for Belle and Sebastian two years ago. He…

Spinning Sunday or: The Haul 6/6/20

Salutations™!! Yesterday, The BCPF and I got to go back to Underdog Records for the second straight week. We also ate inside a restaurant, albeit briefly. So, we tried to get some normalcy. We got another good haul this week and a few imports. I don’t usually go for that kind of thing but, these…

The Monday Recap or: The Listens 5/31/20

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),…

Spinning Sunday or: The Haul 5/30/20

Salutations™!! YES! You read that correctly. The “haul” and not the “listen.” I haven’t decided yet if I’ll put what I’ve listened to in the last week. You’ll know by the time the end of this blog post happens. So, back to what this means. It means that Underdog Records is back open! It also…

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. You know my religion is “non-Prophet” so that was really just symbolic. However, the sentiment is exact and true. I want to…

Spinning Sunday or: Now Normal Chronicle Edition

Salutations™!! You’d think in this time of “self-isolation” and “stay-at-home” and being surrounded by a lot of vinyl dreaminess that I’d have a lot of time to catch up on some listening. Yeah, you’d think that. But you’d be incorrect. See, the thing is, while I am home working, so is The BCPF. We work…

The Pops and Cracks or: My Vinyl Life

Salutations™!! This is going to be super short. A friend of mine sent this to me and I posted it on my Instagram. It’s a great joke and isn’t anywhere near true, but it does make you wonder why people get into vinyl like we do. I’ll write up a good explanation at another time….

Spinning Sunday or: The Haul 11/10/18

Salutations™!! The BCPF and I were up and out early yesterday, but, we got to Underdog Records and purchased a pretty good-sized haul. Here’s what we got: Various – The Wall (Redux) — So, this is quite interesting. It’s Pink Floyd’s The Wall reimagined by a number of stoner/doom rock bands. It’s heavy, jazzy, light, dark, it’s a bit…
