Record you spin on a rainy Saturday w/ family gone

Sitting here, flipping through my collection, on a rainy saturday wondering what vynil to load. Too overcast for the uplifting Beatles, too overcast for the mellow Pink Floyd. Would consider Hendrix or Neil Young...... Wondering what everyone listens to on days like these, oh the possabilities!

Put on Neil Young's "harvest moon" and listen to a PERFECT album with lyrics to ponder beyond when your family comes home!
Enjoy!

Try this: Mary Gauthier's, "Mercy Now"... You can get it on Acoustic Sounds...

Greendale is another lesser known great Neil Young spin.

See AudioAsylum, specifically the Vinyl Asylum. This is practically all that's left over there.

"What's spinnin', dudes?"

Please, please, please! Let's not start this here!

I live in Seattle too.

If I want to boost my personal energy to get things done on a grey day, I like something like Buddy Rich's "Swingin' New Big Band," which totally blasts away the grey and the mist. In fact, a whole lot of vintage jazz can cheer me up, such as Ella and Louis (I have vols. I & II on LP), some Gene Krupa, Stormy Monday--Lou Rawls' debut album from 1962 with Less McCann's triod--Classic!

For smaller scale that fits the day and mood better I like Moondance by Van Morrison, Bright Size Life or Question and Answer by Pat Metheny (both trio albums), or any number of things from ECM in the '70s--Gary Burton, Ralph Towner, Chick Corea, Keith Jarrett, etc.
