Whats on your turntable tonight?


For me its the first or very early LP's of:
Allman Brothers - "Allman Joys" "Idyllwild South"
Santana - "Santana" 200 g reissue
Emerson Lake and Palmer - "Emerson Lake and Palmer"
and,
Beethoven - "Piano Concerto No. 4 in G Major" Rudolph Serkin/Ozawa/BSO
slipknot1
Neil Young "Songs for Judy"

I seem to remember a thread.....years ago, when I wrote something very similar.,,,,regarding your "alt-country" writing.

Again, Wow! I usually am thinking about music I'd like to hear during my work-week. This reminded me of (how) I meant to start my "week-end listening".....

Mark Knopfler & Emmylou Harris "All The Roadrunning"

Thank you my friend!
@slaw I suppose we were not the first and only older guys to react with that idea when Ryan Adams and Uncle Tupelo became cool ...
.... Which reminds me of my other currently running crackpot Neil Young-related idea: that Courtney Barnett is really his secret un-acknowledged love child....

And probably a a good thing if not too many people read this post...
and I would add Son Volt, even tho I love them as I recall n80 may as well...
so, for me and it sounds like many, jamesclarke, slaw, et al associate an album with a time, friends, experience..and they say memory is just chemical emotion.....

I have cleaned but NOT yet listened to the RSD 4-Way Street....I guess I am saving it for just the right evening and some Rye @darmento thank you !!!! Like James, there is a story..

i was forever changed by attending an elite E coast prep school for a bit on an athletic scholarship ( my parents were not wealthy). Think Dead Poets society with girls...

anyway, in the hour or so between end of study hours and lights out, we would roam the halls in search of new music or music to trade. EVERYONE had a cassette deck, piracy was rampant....some kids had a 100+ bootleg dead shows....There were of course LP’s you would find in most every room. 4-Way was one of those along with Decade, Europe 72, Waiting for Columbus, One More from the Road, Eat a Peach, you get the drift.....
I guess I heard so much 4 Way, I tuned it out...Maybe 2 much “wood” and not enough Cortez the Killer....anyway, took me many years to acquire a taste for a physical copy of 4-Way and then on CD...so I was super pumped to score that on RSD 2019...

coming soon.....ya man
