Beth Orton: Trailer Park. Perfect late-night-just-poured-another-glass-of-bourbon music. Her voice just pulls me in. I’m definitely a fan. #ArtIsResistance #vinyl #vinylcommunity #vinylrecords #nowplaying #nowspinning #music

Gin Blossoms: New Miserable Experience. Definitely on an alternative kick tonight. Such a great album - always thought they would be much bigger than they were.

10,000 Maniacs: In My Tribe. Perfect way to follow R.E.M. A fave from university (and beyond). “Verdi Cries” is sublime. #ArtIsResistance #vinyl #vinylcommunity #vinylrecords #nowplaying #nowspinning #music

R.E.M. Document. Saw them on tour at Michigan State for this in 1987 with 10,000 Maniacs opening for them. Still the best gig I’ve ever been to. #ArtIsResistance #vinyl #vinylcommunity #vinylrecords #nowplaying #nowspinning #music

Tunng: Comments Of The Inner Chorus. Loved this band since I heard them at Moseley Folk in 2006. Folktronica for lack of a better term. Potent stuff. #ArtIsResistance #vinyl #vinylcommunity #vinylrecords #nowplaying #nowspinning #music

Lankum: False Lankum. A relatively recently discovery for me that is now one of the groups whose music is deeply meaningful to me. All of their albums are fantastic, but this is my favourite. I think. #ArtIsResistance #vinyl #vinylcommunity #vinylrecords #nowplaying #nowspinning #music

Dick Gaughan: Handful of Earth. One of my favourite singers - always sings from the heart with a very rare strength and with conviction. This is a brand new release, really glad to get it. #ArtIsResistance #vinyl #vinylcommunity #vinylrecords #nowplaying #nowspinning #music

Bridge Over Troubled Water? Awesome tune - but the whole album is. I think if i had to pick one song though it would be The Boxer. That song just hits me.
Spinning Simon and Garfunkel: Bridge Over Troubled Water on vinyl.
Simon and Garfunkel: Bridge Over Troubled Water. Perfect start to a Wednesday evening. A fantastic album to get lost in.

Yup - if I had to list my favourite Beatles albums now, the top 3 would be Revolver, Abbey Road, and the White Album.
It really is a masterpiece - nice to be reminded of that! And I understand that feeling. I have records where the pops are part of the album for me.

The Beatles: White Album. Haven’t spun this in a while - for a long time it was my favourite Beatles album. Still love it. This is the 2018 50th anniversary pressing. Still looking for a good earlier copy of this. #ArtIsResistance #vinyl #vinylcommunity #vinylrecords #nowplaying #nowspinning #music

R.E.M. Chronic Town / Murmur. This is the one-step that came out last year. The sound is amazing - like hearing it for the first time again 40 odd years later. One of my favourite pressings from one of my all time favourite bands. #ArtIsResistance #vinyl #vinylcommunity #vinylrecords #music

Ye Vagabonds: All Tied Together. I’ve been waiting to spin this since I preordered it last year. Heard Ye Vagabonds live last autumn and the played some tracks from this. Now I have it and it does not disappoint. Highly recommended if you like Irish folk music! #ArtIsResistance #vinyl

Fotheringay: Two Sessions For The BBC in 1970. I love Fotheringay but they only released one album! So any chance to hear other music is good. Not a great recording, but Sandy’s voice rings as true as ever. #ArtIsResistance #vinyl #vinylcommunity #vinylrecords #nowplaying #nowspinning #music

The Doors: Soft Parade. Not my favourite Doors album - it’s a bit too big and too small. But still a great listen.
