It's a really small beatnik kind of place.. couches, but interesting patrons. I met a trombone player who has played Carnegie Hall, and an documentary film maker who is in her late 20's. It's a hip place and they love the idea.
It will just be one spin on the deck. Can't imagine it destroying my records. Technics and I think some kind of Shure cartridge.
Culturally it's very mixed, so I'll do my best to keep the music ethnically diverse.
The next week I am thinking Miles Davis "Bitches Brew" then Santana's first. Follow that with Dylan's Highway Revisited, and then end the night with something more modern like The Smiths "Meat is Murder".
I'll need to play some soul, Aretha, Marvin, and then play some more progressive stuff like Tales from Topographic Oceans.
There is just so much stuff to play it's almost mind boggling.
I don't really listen to much modern music. It sounds too processed and I don't like the digital sound that much. It sounds clean but sterile.
The other reason is that I am still trying to get caught up on all the great music that happened between 1955 and 1980.
Until I have heard all of it, I can't see investing in new music that probably isn't as innovative.
I have zero interest in anything electronica... I have to sense some human interplay between musicians or I lose interest.
