If I won the lottery I would buy ALL the records. And also, you know, do good stuff for charities and humanity and whatnot.

Listening to The Last Broadcast by Doves. I have memories of walking around community college with this in my Discman in ‘02 thinking I was THE SHIT. Like do you fools even read Q magazine??

My kids are seldom sick but hoo-boy when they get the slightest bit of a cold or flu you’d think they came down with the bubonic plague

Another Roxy Music addition! This is a ‘74 US pressing of Stranded. Where does this fit in to everyone’s RM hierarchy? First without Eno, so maybe a bit of a transition album? I’m enjoying it…

I tend to stay in a “rock” focused lane way too much. While there’s still a ton of variety to explore within that fairly large framework, I need to branch out. Picked up this Stevie Wonder only really knowing Higher Ground, and digging it.

Sierra Nevada’s annual festbier collaboration is always some level of very good to great. This year is no different. Grab a sixer while you can. #brewsky

Monday morning spin. An album named after its two lead singles is extremely 1967. Very nice listen overall.

Most recent pick-up. I am generally not a completist by nature, but I can see myself owning all the Roxy Music studio albums at some point. This ‘73 US pressing of For Your Pleasure is my third from them. 5 to go…
