I’ve chosen Atom and His Package “Redefining Music” circa … Continue reading #smarchvinylchallenge
Vintage Vinyl Holidays
Everyone posting their Album of the Year and I’m over here spinning Kenny Rogers’ first Christmas album like it’s 1981. And while I’m not sure it was an Album of the Year juggernaut then, it was the shelf grab of my season this year. Honestly, it’s just a wholesome little holiday spin soundtracked by the … Continue reading Vintage Vinyl Holidays

Day 31: #fallvinylhealing The Album to Define You
There were big plans for Day 31 #fallvinylhealing to showcase an album that is quintessentially you. I was planning to run a comb thru my ratty ass hair, maybe fix my face up a little, give my RBF a rest, but obviously, I didn’t quite make it there. And instead of focusing on the laundry list of … Continue reading Day 31: #fallvinylhealing The Album to Define You
Day 30: #fallvinylhealing Album for Self-Care
I’ve been leaving breadcrumbs for the final #fallvinylhealing post tomorrow, yet I couldn’t help myself today for Day 30. It’s sincerely what has been on today and is helping to alleviate the Muuundays and, in turn, take care of my sanity, which is what we were looking for today. Send Layers, Guns, and Money. 📕🔫💵
Warren Zevon is the Love of My Life: Probably, Part I
There are artists, much like people, who grace your life with their presence, and it feels so poignant you wonder how you’ve existed in the world without knowing them, their soul, and the fruits of which they’ve created and were brave enough to share with the world. Or, drunk enough. On his work, Zevon was … Continue reading Warren Zevon is the Love of My Life: Probably, Part I
