Your vinyl guilty pleasure???

Bobbie Gentry...Ode to Billy Joe...

I was just a kid the very first time I heard this haunting story, so many unanswered questions.

Joan Baez...Diamonds and Rust...

My head banging friends including my girl friend at the time never new I also listened to Baez, Fitzgerald, Belifonti ect.

Here's one that many hated, I liked.

Richard Harris...MacCarther Park...

Did Jimmy Webb write about a drug trip experience he had in the 1960s?
And how the Hell did Richard Harris end up recording this whacked song?

For moods requiring romantic self-pity, Coldplay & The Cure are hard to beat.

When breezy jazz is needed it's the lighter albums of Larry Carlton and Pat Metheny.

SP68, i guess i'm maybe listening to chan a little TOO much lately. and no, i don't have jukebox yet, maybe for that very reason. now where did i put my NIN albums?....

ok, how about southern culture on the skids, with such classics as "too much pork for just one fork," and "dirt track date"?

Hard to beat the theme song from "Shaft" by Isaac Hayes. Overblown arrangements that are pan-potted to within an inch of their life. Includes the lyrical call and response:

Isaac: He's a bad mother...
Chorus (interrupting): "Shut your mouth"

This, in its own warped way, is a demo quality recording.

LOVE IT!
