Opening 2026 (over 17 hours in) with my last record purchase of 2025: Jeff Buckley’s great debut/only album “Grace”!

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't nirvana, soundgarden, pearl jam, or alice in chains.

a trio of festive @coleminerecords.bsky.social 45s to close out Christmas Day! I hope yours was as merry as mine was.

Kelly Finnigan - A Joyful Sound: 7.5/10

If you love Christmas music that sounds more like classic soul than actual Christmas music, then this is the album for you! /pos

I’ve got both the green LP & the book of 45s released for RSDBF. @coleminerecords.bsky.social

about to watch this masterpiece with my family again, as per tradition!

Elvis’ Christmas Album: 6.3/10

I really like the first half of the record, with his all-timer “Blue Christmas” being the obvious highlight. The second half with the slower carols & gospel… not really my thing. Sorry.

Vince Guaraldi - A Charlie Brown Christmas: 8.8/10

Quite possibly my favourite holiday album and up there with my favourite albums period. This is the music I think of whenever I think of Christmas, this album and the special attached to it are go-tos for me every single year.

also managed to find the 45 for “Holly, Carol, Candy & Joy” a few years back

JD McPherson - SOCKS: 8.4/10

If you’re a fan of rockabilly or R&B music, or if you want original Christmas songs that sound like the late 50s then I can’t recommend this album highly enough! It’s an incredibly fun listen from front-to-back and a standard in my holiday listening now!

Haven’t been able to play a lot of the Christmas albums I have over the last month bcuz of illness & other music-related hobbies (rankdowns, mostly) taking up my time. I’m making up for that now with two 💿 from the Queen of Christmas herself…

Got some new Christmas 45s released by @coleminerecords.bsky.social from one of my local shops yesterday afternoon. the Kelly Finnigan 45 is two new original songs, the Parlor Greens 45 is a soul version of Auld Lang Syne b/w a William Bell cover. Both great 45s, highly recommend!

Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings - It’s a Holiday Soul Party: 8.2/10

A great holiday record, a great soul record and, befitting its title, perfect for a holiday party (I think)!

I divide my music streaming listening between AM & Spotify, so with that in mind, here’s some highlights from my Spotify Wrapped this year:

The Cars: 8.8/10

I finally completed my collection of Cars albums (from their initial run, at least) a few months ago and I’m finally beginning to listen through them now!

Their debut album is a classic of that era, one of the best debut albums in rock. It’ll be hard to top this.

sombr? I Barely Know Her! …get it? eh whatever, I don’t have to impress you…

picked up the two latest @daptonerecords.bsky.social releases from Listen Records today!

Cochemea’s record is another great ancestry-influenced mix of jazz, afrobeat & Latin music and the new Antibalas is great too, a fully instrumental record due to their frontman going solo a few years back.

hope y'all had a happy Halloween! I spent it at home watching the Blue Jays unfortunately lose, but I still snagged some free candy so it was a good night overall!

You like Huey Lewis & The News?

I was at the mall with my dad, looking through the used record store there, found this good looking copy of Sports and basically bought it on impulse.
October 17, 2025 at 9:24 PM
I was hoping to get a vinyl copy of the new Say She She album before heading out of town for a few days tomorrow and what great timing, my local store finally got it in today!

If you’re into disco, soul, or a psychedelic-flavoured mix of the two interests you, I can’t recommend this group enough!

Bought the new @kendramorris.bsky.social album/board game from Listen Records today, featuring one of the most beautiful coloured pressings to come out so far this year (of the records I have).

new collaboration from Shawn Lee (Young Gun Silver Fox, “Bully” score) & Kelly Finnigan just dropped today and it’s already one of my favourite songs of 2025, the combination of the soft rock tune with Kelly’s voice is immaculate!
September 19, 2025 at 7:12 PM
Picked up a couple more singles today; Jalen Ngonda’s first reggae/dub 45 & a new one from the late, great Vicky Tafoya who passed away just a couple weeks ago. She had a great voice & this single is my favourite of the three she put out on @penroserecords.bsky.social #vinylcommunity

Listen Records is having a 20% off sale this weekend & a bbq today in honour of their 25th anniversary and these are the records @daring63.bsky.social & I got! Had a really good 🍔 too.
