RYAN ADAMS 1989 2015 U.S. 2xLP pressing I find it hilarious that the only Taylor Swift album I like is not by Taylor Swift. 😂 Say what you want about Ryan Adams (most people do). Yes, he’s a bit of an asshole and a creep, but the dude is a hell of a songwriter. He’s also always done interesting cover versions of a vast array of songs, from many genres. So, back in 2015, when I heard he was doing an ALBUM cover of Taylor Swift’s 1989, it was gonna be good. I knew it would be: A. way more nuanced and interesting. B. that it would actually rock It’s really good, man. It took an obnoxious over-produced schlocky pop album and added a bunch of #70s and #90s rock to it. It proved that not all pop music needs to sound like it came off a conveyor belt. It can have personality, it can be interesting, and it can have a little umph and depth. I still loathe Taylor Swift. #vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #records #vintage #retro #physicalmedia #analog #vinylcollection #art #music

CONTORTIONS Buy 1979 U.S. pressing One of the 4 artists that appear on the previously posted No New York compilation, & one of a FEW James Chance-adjacent albums I picked up today. Chance was a flamboyant saxophonist who was a very integral part of that late #70s /early #80s #nowave /#artrock scene in New York. He and The Contortions played a very #avantgarde kind of punky #funk music, with flourishes of #jazz as well. Buy was the original band’s ONLY record, coming a year AFTER that No New York compilation. Shortly after that, Chance became the star, and proceeded to have many different bands and projects over the years, including a “not at all the same” James Chance And The Contortions, which was just Chance and a bunch of other randoms. None of the post-Buy “Contortions” albums ever did much for me. THIS album is friggin great, though. Time and place, man. #vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #records #vintage #retro #physicalmedia #analog #vinylcollection #art #music

JAPAN Tin Drum 1981 Canada pressing While I was at my local shop this morning, a gentleman came in to sell about 30 of his records. I ended up buying ALMOST all of them. Along with the No New York compilation I posted earlier, it was all made up of #obscure #nowave , #punk , #postpunk , #newwave , #synthpop , and #experimental #artrock from the late #70s and early #80s . This was one that I was very excited about. I’ve never owned a CLEAN original Tin Drum on vinyl before, and I’m SIKED. I’m a big fan of Japan (and of David Sylvian) in general, and Tim Drum was the first album by Japan I ever heard. I was so mystified by it, that I instantly set off on finding others, which lead me to working backwards towards Adolescent Sex, Obscure Alternatives, Quiet Life and Gentlemen Take Polaroids. “Ghosts” is an incredible tune. It still gives me goosebumps. #vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #records #vintage #retro #physicalmedia #analog #cratedigging #vinylcollection #art #music

I remember an episode of The Rockford Files where he printed out business cards similar to this ad out of the glove box of his classic gold Pontiac Firebird. The ink was still wet when he handed them out. #70s #TV

ULTRAVOX Vienna 1980 Canada pressing A stone cold classic before I head out and start my Monday. One of my favorite #80s records that I will never tire of. I know diehards prefer the earlier #70s Ultravox records, but Vienna is the one for me. The first one with Midge Ure on it, replacing the departed (he left, he didn’t die) John Foxx. Full of really great tunes, and one of the defining albums of the early eighties #synthpop genre. One of my all-time favorite fun and ridiculous facts: The title track, unquestionably the band’s biggest song, reached #2 on the UK singles chart. The song that kept it from being #1? Joe Dolce’s “Shaddap You Face”. 😂 Apparently, good taste was on vacation in 1980. #vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #records #vintage #retro #physicalmedia #analog #cratedigging #vinylcollection #vinylfinds #rare #art #1980s #80sMusic #synth #newwave #ultravox #music

VARIOUS ARTISTS All Ears (10 New And Original Hits With A CB Theme) 1977 U.S. pressing Quite the ridiculous record that I just couldn’t pass up, because it looked JUST like my kinda stupid. Made for Radio Shack in the mid #70s , this is a collection of songs that all have a CB theme to them. Rock, jazz, R&B, gospel, soul… this thing is ALL over the place, but all the songs drive down the Citizens Band 2-Way radio highway. In all honesty, there’s some pretty good tunes on here. “Honey Bee (Please Answer Me)” by Randy Goodrum is a particular standout for me, as is “Everybody's Somebody (In Our C.B. World)” by Ed Bernet. For only $1.00, I couldn’t go wrong. Pretty entertaining shit, straight down to the “Index Of Terms Used By CB’ers” on the back cover. 10-4, good buddy. Over and out. 🫡 #vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #records #vintage #retro #physicalmedia #analog #cratedigging #vinylcollection #vinylfinds #rare #art #cb #citizensband #1970s #70smusic #novelty

#WeirdShitWednesdays The Residents put out an 'album' with 20 songs on each side exactly 60 seconds long. Most were unlistenable. This one has stuck with me for decades. Moisture. Someone found a strange amount of moisture on her lipsAnd it was also seen on her arms and on her hips No one knows exactly who she was or how she diedBut when they opened up her purse, they found a snail inside https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=1u1OIpPOUv0&si=FFi-o2Dyp2GHzVMQ Barely #music #70s #80s #strange

https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=X1vNAJwV1uY&si=0yNP35xjs-IZ8Vzi Well, once I was a stone, many years ago Into a pool was thrown, many years ago Time went by and the pool ran dry Excavated was I and tempered And beat in the fiery heat By the hand of a man whose name was Dan Dan the blacksmith Well, once I was a daisy, many years ago In pastures green and lazy, many years ago But I was on my goat who fell in a moat #70s #music #evolution #poetry

I'm "Tape a penny to this order form, and get 10 records or cassettes!" years old. And then I had to reinvest in CDs, and then everything went into a Cloud, and I have to pay $0.99 a pop for my fucking music again. #Aging #AgingGratefully #GenX #70s #Humor #comedy
