Psssst, @craigdino Steve Reid and The Legendary Master Brotherhood - Nova (Soul Jazz Records, SJR LP442, UK, 2019 reissue)
Cross Post from the Feb Challenge Thread. A couple of 10" to start the evening. Little Simz - Project Unfollow Fleet Foxes - The Electric Lady Session
Another cross post. Robert Pete Williams - Those Prison Blues. A snippet from Wikipedia - He was discovered by ethnomusicologists Dr Harry Oster and Richard Allen in Louisiana State Penitentiary, where he was serving a life sentence for fatally shooting a man in a nightclub in 1956, an act which he claimed was in self-defense. Oster and Allen recorded Williams performing several of his songs about prison life, and pleaded for him to be pardoned. Under pressure from Oster, the parole board issued a pardon, and commuted his sentence to 12 years. In December 1958, he was released into 'servitude parole'.
My Bloody Valentine - Loveless (2018 Gatefold reissue). If any of you guys and girls have this reissue have a look at discogs. Can't believe the prices its going for. The past 4 copies sold have gone for over £100 (highest being £153). I bought this from their website after coming across it in the VMP book and liking what I heard when streaming.
It must have been a 'right place at the right time' situation for me then. I was never into them when I was growing up and only bought it on a whim after liking what I heard on spotify. Honestly stunned me when I went to check the details.
I have been blaming the difficulties in hearing any vocals in the way a lot of current vocal tracks are buried deeper in the mix. I am sticking to that belief. Should work until I start forgetting the words to the classics that I know the lyrics by heart. After that it will be all bass so a new subwoofer will be needed.
Wayne Shorter - Juju Bought this early reissue on eBay for cheap and when it arrived it was still sealed. Its 40+ years old and im the first person to listen to it. Crazy.
