Record you spin on a rainy Saturday w/ family gone

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.

Rainy Day...Dream Away,
Hendrix.
Hendrix knows what to do on a rainy day, no getting uptight here in the Northwest.
Another favorite LP for my rainy days alone is Dr. Johns- Gumbo Music.

Well Sunday is upon me and still raining. Some very good suggestions thus far, keep them coming. Thinking for today's line up: The Who (Love reign o'er me), Clapton (Let it rain), Greatful Dead (Box of rain), etc. I have decided to embrace the rain!
