Motown Collected, double LP
2021 Music On Vinyl #2948
Highly enjoyable assortment of Motown hits. Decent or better SQ, depending on the cut. Makes me regret not collecting Motown back when. Just a fun album!
thin white rope, "exploring the axis"--you hear a bit of velvet underground and krautrock influence, but this is mostly very unique-sounding fountains of wayne, s/t--this sort of clever-pop can sound smarmy in the wrong hands (i.e. weezer), but these guys do it really well, with big hooks and a great guitar sound. "radiation vibe" is incredible. roy loney, "out after dark"--ex flamin groovie runs out of steam a bit on side 2, but side 1 is as tough a rockabillyish set as you'll ever hear |
Agreed. I love that kind of pop rock. Solid hook. Makes me sing, really loud... |
