Watching the album Time by ELO playing on a record player is very peaceful to me.

DIG
Dig
1993 UK pressing
One of the most listened to albums in my collection.
I went through about 4 CD copies of this in my youth, and I found the record in a dusty box on Vancouver Island with no price tag on it.
I ended up paying 20 bucks for it.
People STILL offer me ridiculous money for this on Discogs, and Iām shocked to see what their worth now.
This is still good for 2-3 spins a month for me.
āBelieveā is STILL the jam.
A signature #90s anthem, baby!

FURGUSON
The Leap Year
2013 Spain pressing
What a great find!
$10 from a clearance bin, the hype sticker promises that their indie-noise/electronic identity finds a melancholy kind of darkness here.
SOLD.
Itās really fun. Thereās some definite Japandroids/Refused type vibes here, but there are serious hooks & melodies.
āHeatā is a killer tune, and the albums electronic flourishes are subtle and very complementary.
REALLY dig this.
I assume they are now defunct?

BECK
Sea Change
2016 Europe 2xLP reissue
A beautiful, heartbreaking work of art.
Beckās breakup/divorce album; his Blood On The Tracks if you will.
Not only is it HIS unquestioned masterpiece, its Nigel Godrichās as well.
His work on the Radiohead albums made him famous (for good reason), but as a producer, this is also HIS master stroke.
An amazing pressing of this.
It sounds so good, that you wonder where other mastering & pressing efforts are going wrong.

Listening to my #Vinyl #Collection - Album 156
#Mew ā And The Glass Handed Kites (2005)
I love every song on this album! Everything about it is perfect except for the album artwork š¤£
Special is the first Mew song I heard, and I instantly fell in love!

Your friendly neighborhood Vinyl Ape is feeling very loved this morning.
Received a wonderful belated birthday present this morning from a wonderful person.
Do ALL apes look sexy as fuck in leather?
Or is it just me?
The latter, probably.

ELBOW
Newborn
2001 UK 12ā single
A nice breakfast this morning; some apple pancakes & Elbow.
I love Elbow, & it started way back when I got a promo CD single of this while working at the HMV in Harvard Square in Cambridge, Ma back in the early Oughts.
I was immediately taken by this song,& particularly Guy Garveyās voice.
The 2nd of the three songs here, Lucky With Disease, is also wonderful.
BTW, donāt compare your apple pancakes to mine. Yours are shit. š

I finally created a Discogs list of vinyl I have been carrying around since I was 14. Over the years the stack has paired down to just two āpleatherā storage boxes, still adorned with early nineties catchphrases like āargue for your limitations and sure enough they are yoursā and āthese moments will be lost in time, like tears in rainā - hand typed, cut out, and glued on to the box.
The cost of some of them amazed me, and I think their value only comes about because they were pressed so long ago.
Key shocks were Nevermind by Nirvana, Debut by Bjork, and the soundtrack to Terminator with gatefold. Also not surprised that Meet Danny Wilson and Introducing The Hardline According to Terrence Trent DāArby were nearly worthless.
DINOSAUR JR.
Farm
2009 U.S. 2xLP pressing
A little ear bleeding country for my last spin of the night, & my absolute favourite of the Dino reunion records.
This also happens to be one of my three or so favorite album covers of all time. I donāt know how you can look at it, &NOT want to get as high as an elephantās balls.
I want to get a 2nd copy of this JUST for the cover, so I can stretch the gatefold out into its complete image, & have it framed.
Itās just so beautiful.
