Taking videos of my record player and putting them on the internet. Good to see I'm not the only one who enjoys doing this.
I think we can all agree that 1. This is a great Santana album and 2. Today's wordle is stupid. #nowspinning #santana
Joe Cocker used 39 musicians for 11 covers. Assuming today's dollars the album is $25, and the artist gets 10%. $2.50/(40 +11)=$0.049 per artist per record. 300,000 copies sold x $0.049 = $14,705. There's some big name credits so I don't think Joe made much on this one. #nowspinning #joecocker
Perhaps you can't judge a book by its cover, but this sounds exactly like I thought it would when I bought it. #ars #nowspinning #dogpacingbackandforthfornoreason
My wife told me to stop reading depressing books so I read this one about beavers. It's delightful. I love beavers now. #nonfiction #leilaphilip #beaverland
Rallied neighbors to clear sidewalk overgrown. My daughter's school route, an end to her rant. But cancelled it must be for morning storm. So playing Phillips while cat bites a plant. #nowspinning #shawnphillips #giantsunflowers #hatchetaxeandsaw
A dry, dispassionate debate among economists at the top of their field about how to make the world a better place with limited funds. For some, this is a ravingly good book review. #nonfiction #bjornlomborg #booksky
Definitely not missing the Dallas show in November. On a side note, I imagine Wu Tang is jealous they don't have the same lyrical freedom to reference They Might Be Giants in their songs. #nowspinning #theymightbegiants
Sam Kean did with the Periodic Table of Elements what John McPhee did with oranges. Weirdly fun, interesting read about what is usually a dry topic. #booksky #nonfiction #samkean
Without a doubt the most talented of all the Branfords. #branfordmarsalis #nowspinning
First time at Preservation Hall in New Orleans earlier this week. Tourist trap? Well, I mean, yeah a bit. Still, to meet a legend like Charlie Gabriel and the ridiculous talent around him was phenomenal. Worth it. #nowspinning #charliegabriel
Linda Ronstadt made this album with Nelson Riddle. Nelson Riddle had an extramarital affair with Rosemary Clooney. Rosemary Clooney's nephew is George Clooney, who acted with Jack Nicholson in The Peacemaker. And Jack Nicholson was in A Few Good Men with Kevin Bacon. #lindaronstadt #nowspinning
Boyfriend recorded a musical of the story of Adam and Eve, casting Big Freedia as God. It's a bonkers ambitious album that is way too much fun. Favorite release this year by a mile. Take a few minutes to go down this rabbit hole. #nowspinning #boyfriend #bigfreedia
It's a good thing I got the brisket mopped and on the smoker before putting this record on. There is a subliminal message in the music that I did not use nearly enough peppers. #nowspinning #masmamones #lowandslow
Weekend planning tunes. Not doing tunes. Doing are funk and metal tunes. Jazz is for the planning. #LAExpress #nowspinning
Beware ICE Angine de Poitrine. Your math rock elders Rush had to cancel last night's show due to "border issues", leaving thousands of us depressed dads wandering Fort Worth. The cargo shorts army has been awakened. #neveragain #nowspinning #anginedepoitrine
Father's Day advice for the kids: Don't just be a man, be a Mangione. #nowspinning #chuckmangione
I was looking at the insert and guessed Cooker LoPresti was the bassist. Boy was I right. Also backed Elton John AND Alice Cooper. A true man of the people. I always respect solo artists that give the band the photo credits they deserve. #nowspinning #melissamanchester #cookerlopresti
Much like the peak television show Alf, masterpieces like this one can only be achieved if the artists are completely miserable. #cream #nowspinning
My sister just had a baby she named Simone, no connection to Nina Simone intended. Intended or not when they visit we will play a lot of Nina. I have no idea why except it's fun for us. Hey infant! This singer has the same name! See-Line! #nowspinning #ninasimone
I can't stop staring at this cover. Mylon LeFevre is walking much faster than Alvin Lee. Look at their feet! #nowspinning #alvinlee #mylonlefevre
Joe Walsh is from Wichita. Thanks Kansas had a great time! #nowspinning #theeagles
Staying at an Airbnb in Wichita with some friends. It had a malfunctioning Victrola with a worn out needle, but also a Harry Styles record and I've never heard his music. This Airbnb now has a repaired Victrola, new needle, and sweet tunes. #nowspinning #harrystyles
The cat says 45 rpm is superior to 33 1/3, regardless of George Harrison's position on the issue. And speaking of where things are positioned... #georgeharrison #nowspinning #catsarejerks
The soulful feeling of Joni Mitchell pairs well with the longing eyes of the dog who would like to go for a walk. Looks like my own Hejira will begin before flipping to side B. #nowspinning #jonimitchell
Daughter does not want to wake up for her Confirmation mass this morning. Sister Gertrude and the volume dial aren't having it. #sistergertrudemorgan #nowspinning
Sunrise, coffee, and the inexplicably complex vibe of The Moody Blues. Do I want to chill a while longer, make breakfast, walk the dog? I have no idea. #themoodyblues #nowspinning
Open up that window and let some air into this room. Good advice! #threedognight #nowspinning
