I tried to Bluesky...
This is a quality start to cards and records. That Tlayuda was the size of a large pizza, and beef perfected. Orval FTW.

Most high-dollar heavy-psych, hard-rock rarities from the 70s I hear bore me. People spend too much on obscurity. But this one hits. Falls apart some as it closes, but the A-side is gnarly.

OG is high on my wants. But this MOV cut is legit. After a pair each by; Candlemass, Trouble, and Saint Vitus. The best Doom Metal album since. They remember the Metal part.

Whiskey sour fizzes? Bourbon, splash of SP Limonata, and lime spark-water. Not bad, prefer beers and straight whiskey. But health, you know. Led to this playlist.

Someone donated a bunch of blues, folk, country-billy CDs to a local shop. Snagged a good 50-60. $2 a pop, lot of multi-disc collections. Starting with the Gallup/Gene disc first.

Radics and Scientist in their Greensleeves prime. Obviously riddims are on fire. But also some of my favorite toasting of the era. The right kind of weirdly topical and nostalgic vibes I love.

Captain Sinbad - The Seven Voyages Of...

1982 UK/US Greensleeves

Good fucking lord! This is where it's at! Have a 45 side in my playlist for years. Bought on that merit. Absolute A1. Sound quality is tip-top for a budget. Roots perfection. Could not recommend enough.

The original footlong is a tough grip. So a decent reissue is always welcome. Why they shaved two inches off the OG, who knows? 10s are dumb, the world agreed. But the lead track makes any format tolerable.

Jah Witter - Captivity Captives 2022 Ohm Records US. OG 198?

Not a popular opinion, probably. But after yet another listen, this is just okay. One great track, couple decent ones, and meh. Great style, great tone. Just does nothing for me. I've really tried.

Only Ones - Self Titled 2015 DP US press. OG 1978.

Brian was always a cut above most of his peers, this album is his finest work, IMO. Killer from head-to-toe. One of the most criminally underated LPs of the U.K. Post-punk era.

This may be my favorite one. Plenty of snide hardcore, and they go hard on the goofy too. CJ formula at it's peak.

Hokey jacket that reminds me of the little mirrors on various 70s records. Maybe the worst center-label I've ever seen. Gross. But also six great OG tracks from the best Byrd. Fantastic sound quality in spite of the outfit.

Gene Clark - Back Street Mirror 2018 US.

Solid comp anyway, but the Sam Carty 'I don't mind' track makes it. A truly amazing, and mysterious track. Later toasted over by Prince Jazzbo on one of the greatest albums of the genre.

Couple A1 comps to close out records tonight. A liitle Barry crossover, but different vibes in general.

One of my favorite things in the world is when classic roots style harmony groups were singing over early 80s Dancehall riddims. This album is sublime.

I think the allure of OG pressings is many things. But for me, one of the biggest is a pic/lyric sleeve often removed from subsequent pressings. Even better, artwork center-labels. This has both. $1, garage sale, Star City, 2005. Those were the days.

I'm not devastated, I can believe it. But it's sure a bummer that David Johansen is no longer among us. That first Dolls LP is one of maybe ten that totally changed my trajectory. Dolls inspired playlist tonight.

When I first fell into the deep-end of the Reggae pool, this was an early want of the highest order. Blew me away then, and always will. The true lion of reggae.

Many of the big UK classic-rock bands you're supposed to love bore me to death. Some I despise. This is the shit right here. This is how you concept album.

Oft regarded as the first hardcore band. From their debut in '78 to this, night and day. Like most bands in early HC, likely doing something very different not long after. Many pulled it off, most didn't. This here is goth-wave perfection.

Raucous to refined. Love them all, but the Lee Hazlewood is always the star of any show. Arguably my favorite. I saw it was Poison Ivy's birthday a few days past, so Cramps on the menu as well.

Straight outta Compton as well. One of the finest pieces of early Gangsta-Rap ever recorded. IMO, it holds up much better than the N.W.A. stuff. Which I do also love, DGMW.

I'm not one who could ever pick a singular album to be my favorite of any genre. But under the umbrella of Metal. Top 5, no question. I'd guess there's not a Metal record more emulated than this one.
