RAY LYNCH Deep Breakfast 1984 U.S. pressing A perfect late night spin, and one of my three favorite #ambient / #newage records ever. I first heard this WAAAY back in the mid 90s. I was visiting my best friend’s house for the first time, and upon entering his house, I saw a giant pile of CDs on a side table. “These yours?”, I asked him. “Nah, man. Those are my Dad’s.” I noticed most of it. A lot of classic rock, some folk stuff, Simon and Garfunkel…etc. Then I saw THIS in there. I had never heard of Ray Lynch before, so I was intrigued. “Dude, what’s this about?” “I don’t know man. Let’s throw it on.” I was hooked from the very first track “Celestial Soda Pop”, which apparently, early #80s NPR used as a theme song for one of their shows back then. Just a beautiful album. Dan’s father never saw that cd again. 🤷 #vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #records #vintage #retro #physicalmedia #analog #vinylcollection #art #music #1980s #80sMusic #raylynch #deepbreakfast

Replying to @shotgunseamstress@counterforce.social
@shotgunseamstress@counterforce.social Back in the mid-to-late #80s my pals and I ran a loose art group (Archbishops Talent Exposure Collective) that did lots of one off guerrilla art projects - punk meets performance art with no budget and little concern for audience or safety. Was glorious fun.

I’ve never seen the movie Glengarry Glen Ross. I’m planning to do so soon. Will it make me -irrationally angry -nostalgic for a simpler time -hungry to sell real estate -astonished at the casual racism/misogyny/ableism/homophobia -put off by something off-putting (Undefined) ? No spoilers, please! #GlengarryGlenRoss #RealEstate #MovieQuotes #90s #80s #90sMovies #FilmFriday #Films #Movies

SHANGHAI DOG This Evolution 1985 Canada pressing For fans of independent Canadian rock from the #80s , this is a bit of a sought after record. I found it in a thrift store in Chilliwack about a decade ago. A killer #postpunk #newwave rock record, it’s got a political tone to it, as well as dealing with themes of social unrest and alienation, like any good #punk record should. The bass lines on this album are killer! Those come courtesy of the great Ron Allan, who along with guitarist Mike Graham, were members of the legendary Vancouver band Subhumans. This is the only record ever released by Shanghai Dog. It’s so good, it’s really all you need anyway. #vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #records #vintage #retro #physicalmedia #analog #cratedigging #vinylcollection #art #music #canada #1980s #80sMusic #vancouver #shanghaidog

Remember when they experimented with audio simulcast of TV shows on an FM radio station? Back in the days of CRT and single mono speakers. I distinctly remember a Calgary TV and FM station duo doing this for the tv-movie premier thing of Miami Vice. #80s #1980s

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

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

When sorting out stuff after the move, I found some of my old toy cars back. The cop car and the red one can sustain "damage" and then reset again. Very 80's! #toys #cars #hotwheels #80s

VARIOUS ARTISTS You’re No Big Deal (Grunge, The U.S. Underground And Beyond 1984-1994) 2025 UK 4xCD Box Set I was DEEPLY saddened to learn of the passing of L7’s Jennifer Finch from brain cancer. Really awful news. So, I’m pulling this great Cherry Red set out in her honour, as L7 were a significant part of that particular brand and era of music, and because my second favorite L7 song is on here (“Shove”). I LOVE this set. Some interesting choices here to go along with the usual suspects. All the grunge-a-riffic Seattle bands (minus an obvious few due to licensing issues I’m sure), as well as legendary tentpole #80s bands like Husker Du, The Replacements, Dinosaur Jr., Superchunk, and more. Even “Sex Type Thing” is on here, which may seem like an odd choice, but it’s 100% completely appropriate. Pour some of your 40 out for Jen Finch today. #vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #records #vintage #retro #physicalmedia #analog #vinylfinds #rare #art #music #1990s #90s #90smusic
