Listening to records on-site is now active! So you can dig the crate and hear each record instantly

This is now live! (It was easier than I thought to implement)

Van Morrison looks good for his age but you cannot convince me these are the same person

Please tell me I’m not the only one who heard Dylan the first time they listened to this song

Some would say I’m listening to too much Sinatra recently. But β€œtoo much” and β€œSinatra” are oxymorons so I think they’re wrong

Norma Tanega was way ahead of her time. She was the original indie folk star

Lamp is super underrated, really calming j-pop

That’s one of the next steps for sure, at the moment we’re still in a bit of a beta testing stage but over time there will be many more features.

It’s perfect for anyone, from experienced music fans to newcomers, there’s something for every one.

Woah! Thanks so much, I’m trying to get it going to promote exactly this thinking. This is really giving me the confidence I need to make this a success!

So much this! I’m working on an album and I’m planning to go mostly old-school on marketing. No streaming except for some YouTube videos. Music you buy and own, recommended by reviews from people who listen to music because it’s important. I’m hoping Wax absolutely rocks. We need lots of this!

Yes! Sinead is easily top 10! Also love to see Fairport Convention getting some love!

12.01.2026 11:06 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 1    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Siouxsie Sioux is my number 5! Tina goes so unappreciated, glad to see her getting some love! All great picks though

12.01.2026 11:03 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

All great picks, how has no one mentioned Alice yet? Also PJ Harvey is a big contender!

I was trying to fit Courtney in there too but couldn’t kick any of these four! The last two I’ve never heard of but I’ll have to check out now!

12.01.2026 05:55 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Thanks! I love those two as well! These four really dominate their industries in a special way I think, and Baez and Chaka Kahn fit in just fine (oh and thanks for the repost)

Obviously I’m on board with Joni, but the rest are all great picks! ✌️

So interesting how some artists can be huge in the UK but practically unknown the US general public. Do you know any other examples?

Francoise Hardy was just as much a fashion icon as a pop star and I think she does both just as well!
