Takes a while for Jimmy to get involved here, but when he does, he does.

Tough crowd this week. *Rodney Dangerfield tie adjust* Time for our regular closer, #TheIncredibleJimmySmith This week, he's found in 1966 interpreting Prokofiev's famous opus 67. 'til 7 days time then, stay safe, stay loose and stay lovely! Peace.x #Fridayvinyl #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky #Jazz

I woke up at four this morning with a Belle & Sebastian megamix earworm rattling through my brain. No idea why. They were a dead cert for a spin this #Fridayvinyl, but I currently find myself hankering for some Fall. As time is tight and it's #FallFriday here's #TheFall #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky

It's been a while since I delved into #Spiritualized's back catalogue. Rectifying that oversight with 2012's oft forgotten and massively underrated "Sweet Heart, Sweet Light". "Hey Jane" has always been a cracking up-lifter and remains in the live set to this day. #Fridayvinyl #VinylCommunity

October then..where did that come from? Thoughts turn to dark nights, sitting rooms and comforting sounds. #IvorCutler has always been a source of warmth for me, despite his sometimes unsettling songs. Here's 1982's "Privilege" #Fridayvinyl #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky

Mr Stanley does it again. I can't think of another compilist that furrows a finer path. I've loved every single Ace comp he's released. Lots of Cook, Greenway and Macaulay here... absolute bliss.

#Fridayvinyl time! I've been out of work for the majority of the year so LP purchases have been scant to say the least. One release I knew I just had to have was @rockingbob.bsky.social's latest comp for Ace, and here it is. A virgin spin, it'll be undoubtedly brilliant. #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky

I'll keep 'em peeled mate. You'll be the first to know!

And there it is! It's a stunning LP. My pleasure Graham, hope you have many happy years together.

Big day tomorrow, so I'm calling it a night. Here's our regular closing man, #TheIncredibleJimmySmith with "Crazy! Baby." from 1960. All that remains is my usual wish for you to stay safe, stay loose and stay lovely. Peace. #Fridayvinyl #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky #Jazz

This stunning debut turns 10 in November and I note there's a dinked version in the offing. Dinked, blinked, schminked whatever. You must own it. Sam Shepherd is a fricking genius to my sizeable ears. 10 years! Who Knows Where The Time Goes? #FloatingPoints #Fridayvinyl #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky

I feel the need for something softer. #MaxineBrown's definitive (for me, anyway) take on Goffin/King's "Oh No, Not My Baby" led me to this ace comp from Kent records. Come for the hit, stay for some superlative gospel tinged soul. The Sweet Inspirations man....#Fridayvinyl #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky

I was driving back to my digs after a night shift the other morning and #JimiHendrix came up on shuffle.
Specifically the title track to this debut, and I thought fuck me, it's been a while since I spun that. So here it is. A bonafide classic. #Fridayvinyl #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky

*Not actually in full though I note. "Monolith" and, sad to say "It's Over" were missing from the Barrowlands set list. No matter. They could stand there and play "Inner Meet Me" for 2 hours straight and it would still be the reunion of the year.

Oh man,I'd have been in absolute bits. let them flow hard. The man deserves it.

At the Brude too, what a venue to say goodbye. Would have loved to have been there. Enjoy!

#Fridayvinyl time! Tomorrow night I'm off to Leeds to see #TheBetaBand perform The Three EP's in full, so there's only one way to kick off this week's selections. It's been 22 long years since I saw them last and I'm absolutely stoked. #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky #Nowplaying

It's a fine haul. I love Emma Pollock. I was lucky enough to meet her a few years back, she's every bit as lovely as you might imagine.

No sign of TSTG yet Graham? Think mine took about a fortnight.

What do you do when you can't decide which #TheincredibleJimmySmith LP to close #Fridayvinyl with? You plump for a comp. This '66 Japanese release features big hitters and LP cuts and it's all gold itellsyer! 'til next week then, stay safe, stay loose and stay lovely! #Vinylcommunity #Vinylsky #Jazz
