My Man! Bringing back memories. I had Johnny Winter and his brother Edgar on vinyl back in the day. Now we talk about Albino Red....these two guys where really albino. One Album I had was Johnny Winter And...with RIck Derringer. Had some stuff with he and Muddy as well.....All that good stuff is gone now....how foolish of me.

Fats Waller: Favorites

Really nice 78 album with 4 records, 8 songs. Includes lots of big hits. Complete listing is: Honeysuckle Rose, Your Feet's Too Big, Aint Misbehavin', Hold Tight (Want Some Sea Food Mama), I Can't Give You Anything But Love, Baby, The Joint Is Jumpin', Two Sleepy People, and The Minor Drag. The records are all in pretty nice condition and are making me late for work while I finish up listening...last record's about to drop now. Yup, old 78 player is back in business, so I'll be dragging out a few stacks of old things like this for a while now.

[Jack in Wilmington]

Just a couple of my morning listens as I ease into the day.
Decided to crank up the SACD/DVD-Audio and surround (as it were ) myself in song.

nobody I have the Coleman Hawkins Quintet f. Teddy Wilson on Mercury (A43). It's a wonderful book with 3 discs and all of it is in excellent condition. If you would like it, let me know. I have come to the conclusion that i will never get into the 78 "thing".

Yes, please.

I'm not sure just how into 78s I will get. I know it can get pretty hairy if you get really into it with different equalization curves and speed variations and different stylus shapes and sizes. But, I do enjoy loading up the changer with the ones I have, a couple Fats Waller sets, a couple Louis Armstrong Hot Jazz albums, a big stack of King Cole Trio, some Sinatra, a few Western Swing discs and a couple stacks of random things is about it for now. But, with a player set up and functioning well, I can't say I think I will be likely to pass up those stacks of cheap shellac when I see 'em sitting there. I don't get too into the technical aspects, just have my mono 78 cart installed, clean 'em off a bit, turn down the bass and treble and load up the changer. Just good fun.

Three day trip on the California Zephyr, Sony Walkman-stylee:








...some of those are duplicates. That lions mixtape from my friend Lindsay B is seriously all I want to listen to lately. Sooo good.

Elite Gymnastics - Ruin 1 and Ruin 2

You Twin Cities guys familiar with this?

[jonnyhambone]

Not their music but they just got some attention for saying the Twin Cities has 'no scene'...something scenesters don't like to be told I guess.

NP: new War On Drugs is pretty solid after a few spins. Nice sounding vinyl too - best one liner descriptor I heard was 'like the Springsteen and Spiritualized albums sitting side by side in your alphabetized record shelf melted together in a desert heat haze' .

[Rae]

Haha, yeah, one of the guys from that band is a regular on another TC-specific board I visit and he's a little bit of a provocateur. I think he's basically a decent dude, though. Here's what he said there about the controversial quote:

tbh they cut out a lot of contextual stuff, the phone interview was really long and in real life i kind of meander when i talk so they had to do a lot of editing to condense it down to something readable

pretty sure i made it clear that i was saying "we aren't part of a scene" rather than "there is no scene at all"

the cat/girlfriend/torta stuff was just me listing off things i do instead of going to shows and club nights

but iunno i'm not mad at the interview at all i think it got the main points across

I tried to listen to some of their music. It's okay. I think the guy is at least consistent between the talk he talks and the walk he walks.

Those cassettes look like fun.


Here, it's jazz night:

Haven't had much luck and have almost stoppd looking for records in thrift shops, but came up with a nice batch today...when I was actually just gonna stop in and pick up a coffee pot. All but four of these (the Monterose, the Brubek, the Basie and the Red Holloway) are original from what I can tell...although I've only glanced. The Hubbard and the Cliff Jordan have a bit of damage to the sleeves, but otherwise everything is in great shape cover-wise and the records themselves are all in excellent shape.
