Another GREAT video featuring vinyl on a turntable!

Sonic Youth - "Dirty Boots" (from Goo, 1990)

Sonic Youth music was MADE to be played on vinyl. "Dirty Boots" is a great song, no matter the format, but it's just that much... awesomer on vinyl.

'Nough said. Listen & enjoy:



Long live vinyl.

Gary Bartz/Ntu Troop -- Harlem Bush Music/Taifa, Part 2

My $0.10 Find of the Week from last week is turning out to be quite a gem. There isn't a bad track on this amazing piece of wax.

Produced by the legendary Orrin Keepnews (who most notably produced Monk's wonderful albums on Riverside) it features some really great  and groovy playing by the likes of Gary Bartz himself (on soprano and alto saxes), Andy Bey (vocals), Juni Booth (bass), Nat Bettis (percussion) and Harold White (drums, awesome,awesome drums!).

Check out this INCREDIBLE track:

The Hollies - He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother

One of the great Hollies song. A bit cheesy, but still, hell, it's the Freakin' Hollies, man!

I dedicate this one to my Big Brother, Mike. Go check out his blog at: http://mikeyboy50.blogspot.com/

Awesome bird photos!

Bruce Springsteen - Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out

The great Clarence Clemons died yesterday at age 69, from complications following a stroke he suffered last week. Springsteen shows will never be the same.

R.I.P. Big Man.

Carl Douglas - Kung Fu Fighting (45 RPM)

Yup, that's right. This is the VERY first record I ever bought on my own, with my own money, and I'm NOT ashamed to admit it! Loved that album. Had some great soul songs.

Ah, memories...

Link Wray - "Rumble" (45 RPM)

Sweet. Old 45s have that special quality: they ALWAYS sound great, no matter how battered they look. My old Beatles 45s still have stunning sound, even after hundreds of plays. Never mind the scratches and the wear & tear, they just keep on delivering.


Long live vinyl.

Marek Biliński - Po drugiej stronie świata

Awesome track. I have a soft spot for Polish rock, my favorite artist being the late great Niemen.
This piece by instrumentalist Marek Biliński blows me away.

Record Making With Duke Ellington (1937)





Ce court métrage, produit en 1937, explique la procédure de fabrication d'un disque 78 tours de l'époque. Un document fort instructif...
A short film from 1937 that explains how 78 RPM records were manufactured back then. Fascinating.
