I love this album. ❤️ I wish my turntable was working better at the moment!

Sunny day, pink trees blooming, windows open, tape playing 💛

Both of the guys who run this label are super nice, too. All the music is also right up my alley but also it feels good to spread the word and support the label

Just ordered a cd yesterday after weighing options for a stupidly long time, lol

I think you’d especially like the first two. I put the links in the Alt

Yes, aka a voyage of discovery. They’re wonderful, as always

Green Mind is the fourth studio album by Dinosaur Jr, released in 1991. It was the band's first release after bassist Lou Barlow's departure, as well as the first released by a major label. The record is close to being a J Mascis solo album: he played most of the instruments, with founding drummer Murph only featuring on three tracks (1, 7 and 9).

A favorite for 35 years 💚

The strangest thing is that I found it at a shop I pop into maybe once every four months, but then I found another copy on the same day (!) at my neighborhood shop, but for almost twice what I paid for this one. I never find her records. Very lucky moment in time ☺️

I loved Ulrika and very much looking forward to listening to this one

Yep. It’s an original press too. I gasped out loud when I found it, lol

Taking Off - Poetry And Jazz is a 1982 album featuring poet Barry Wallenstein alongside jazz musicians like Charles Tyler and Jeremy Steig.

Helen Merrill with Strings is the second album by Helen Merrill, featuring the singer fronting a quartet augmented by a string section arranged by Richard Hayman, recorded in 1955 and released on the EmArcy label.

Of course we don’t stop adding to the collection just because the record player is broken, lol

Still my all time favorite 12”

Sun Ra Archestra led by Knoel Scott at the Hollywood Theatre in Portland, Oregon. Third night of a 3-show run on 27 Feb 2026.

Visited Saturn and New Orleans and all good places from my seat at the Hollywood Theatre last night. Thank you for an evening of respite and pure joy 🧡

I love how the cat is looking at her too 😭

I’ll like it every time! 😁

I thought it was moderating/banning my post because the cassette is called die summer! die! lolol

My bluesky just freaked out so there may be duplicate posts? lol

Stack of Mississippi Records (Eric) “Summer series” cassettes. YOU MUST FIGHT TO LIVE THROUGH THE SUMMER OF THE APES SUMMER, SIX SPACE SHUTTLES & 144,000 ELEPHANTS INCOMPREHNSIBLE SUMMER DARK SUMMER DIE SUMMER! DIE!

It’s summertime in Portland today, thanks to MS Records 😁

I’m really enjoying them again too. I still have a bit of an issue with space for certain precious things so they’re not as easy to access as I’d like. Currently occupying layered space with all the sweet gifts my son has brought me from his travels. Pls don’t judge, lol

No. Not at all. If I recall this was from a kind of “at cost” bootleg label specializing in rare, avant garde releases

I do think I posted it a few years ago when the bootleg tape came to me

Yay! :)

Did you listen to the Su Tissue recording i posted yesterday? That’s pretty special, imo. You may not have heard it only because it’s hard to come by a legit copy

Just waiting (forever) for my teen child to get ready, standing in my hall which features a ginormous family photo collage. I think I’ve pinpointed the funniest pic.. of Garfy trying to sample the curry paneer pizza. Lol. That kitty would eat anything if I let him

Well, to be fair, it was too much 20 years ago! But also, sigh

Salon De Musique Artist: Su Tissue, with Arspenlian Reeves Recorded 1982, Released 1984 on vinyl, unofficial cassette (unofficial 2021 reissue on cassette pictured here) Tracklist features three minimal, loop-based piano tracks

A day of rest. I might just flip this over and over, indefinitely. Healing music youtu.be/UlvDthKojTg?...

We live on different continents, but we were talking about this music at the time we were, apparently, also posting it, lol

It’s a joy!

:) Come On Pilgrim is the debut mini-album by the American alternative rock band Pixies, released on September 28, 1987, on 4AD.
