Every Record I Own: Charlie Haden and the vinyl mindset
http://everyrecord.blogspot.com/2007/10/charlie-haden-and-vinyl-mindset.html
Every Record I Own. One at a time, running through all the recordings I've accumulated over the years. Thursday, October 25, 2007. Charlie Haden and the vinyl mindset. On a side note - I really wish I could go back in time and spend just a little more money in the Greenwich Village Tower Records in 2002. Basement chock full of vinyl that was being liquidated. Von Karajan's complete Beethoven symphonies: $3. Pristine copy of Ornette's Free Jazz. Get it on itunes:. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Every Record I Own: October 2008
http://everyrecord.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Every Record I Own. One at a time, running through all the recordings I've accumulated over the years. Tuesday, October 7, 2008. The Beach Boys, 1966. I'm getting serious about doing some more music writing, so hopefully there will be some regular posting here in the coming weeks. Stay tuned! Is a sad, sad, sad, sad record. Maybe the most melancholy I've ever heard. This is an album to listen to with a glass of wine (and all sharp objects removed from the room) on a lonely Saturday night. Beautiful, ...

Every Record I Own. One at a time, running through all the recordings I've accumulated over the years. Friday, January 18, 2008. Yes, it's been a long time since I've posted anything here. Maybe it'll be a while before I do again - I want to, but it's been difficult to find the time.]. A sunny day. No, she sings "my whole life is like a picture of. Get it on itunes:.

Every Record I Own: Youssou N'Dour
http://everyrecord.blogspot.com/2007/08/youssou-ndour.html
Every Record I Own. One at a time, running through all the recordings I've accumulated over the years. Wednesday, August 8, 2007. Youssou N'Dour, 1989. Ah the late-1980s. The "World Beat" trend had pretty much run its course, and it would be another half-decade or so before NPR began bestowing its Oprah-like blessings upon third-world flavor-of-the-month albums. This was the age of top-40 superstars exploring other musical cultures in order to grow as artists, man. Get it on itunes:. We'll have to have a...

Every Record I Own: July 2010
http://everyrecord.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Every Record I Own. One at a time, running through all the recordings I've accumulated over the years. Monday, July 12, 2010. Carrie Underwood song makes me ill. Carrie Underwood, 2007. Youtube video with lyrics here. I haven't written on this blog for a couple of years, but hearing this song has put me into a ranting mode, and I figured I might as well post my thoughts here.]. The lyrics of "All-American Girl" sure do focus on football a lot, don't they? Oh you womenfolk, the song seems to say, you're a...

Every Record I Own. One at a time, running through all the recordings I've accumulated over the years. Thursday, July 19, 2007. Cassandra Wilson, 1999. So this is one of those albums that sort of creates a world unto itself. Something like how a good novel can pull you into its universe, a place that's textured and deep. Actually, maybe more like a collection of connected short stories by the same storyteller - Cassandra Wilson as Sheherazade, perhaps? Heartbreaking. Adding about 60 layers of meaning...

Every Record I Own: June 2007
http://everyrecord.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
Every Record I Own. One at a time, running through all the recordings I've accumulated over the years. Wednesday, June 27, 2007. John Zorn, 1986. Well this was the first John Zorn music I ever heard - think I bought the album my first year in college. Definitely a great one for me to start with, I have to say, for lots of reasons. The album has three pieces of music on it, but I'm just going to talk about the title track. First and foremost, Spillane. Wednesday, June 13, 2007. Charles Mingus, 1956. Mingu...

Every Record I Own: let's get this party started
http://everyrecord.blogspot.com/2007/04/lets-get-this-party-started.html
Every Record I Own. One at a time, running through all the recordings I've accumulated over the years. Monday, April 2, 2007. Let's get this party started. I noticed that I own quite a lot of recorded music. Yes, probably far fewer than some, but even leaving manic collectors aside, it's quite a bit more than I should own. Did I mention that I have a lot of records? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). If you're looking for more, check out my book and film review blog too:. View my complete profile.
