It’s day 30 of the #smarchvinylchallenge by @brandudesrecordvault: You’re The Best…Around: Favorite Band. The Beatles - s/t AKA The White Album (Apple, 1968/2014) I hate picking favorites, but these four lads from Liverpool are so deeply rooted in my musical life that it’s hard NOT to use them as the answer to this question. And what better album to exemplify their varieties of creativity than this crazy patchwork, their only double album? #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylgram #vinylgeek #vinylcollector #marchvinylchallenge #records #smarch #vinylcommunity #vinylgram https://www.instagram.com/p/CqbrCVQgxll/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It’s day 29 of the #smarchvinylchallenge by @brandudesrecordvault: Kids Say The Darndest Things: A Young Artist. Billie Eilish - Happier Than Ever (Darkroom, 2021) Only just 21, Eilish has already established herself as a creative force with remarkable popular success married to boundary-pushing creativity. Seemingly incapable of being inauthentic, she also uses great artistry, in collaboration with her brother Finneas, to alchemize her life into musical gold. Both of her albums made it into my Top 25 and I would be listening g even if she wasn’t a multi-platinum selling, stadium-filling artist. Looking forward to Album #3 - no pressure! #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylgram #vinylgeek #vinylcollector #marchvinylchallenge #records #smarch #vinylcommunity #vinylgram https://www.instagram.com/p/CqY_XvOAhLG/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It’s day 28 of the #smarchvinylchallenge by @brandudesrecordvault: I’m Becoming My Dad: Music Your Parents Liked. Bob Dylan - John Wesley Harding (Columbia, 1969/86) If you take a close look at the first picture, you’ll notice my father’s florid and somewhat satirical inscription: “To my Valentine, Normacita, Bob Dylan, & and your Lord & Master Rabainu Chaim Shatan, N.Y.C., 2/14/69.” Yes, my parents were big fans of 60s music, especially The Beatles, Dylan, and Simon & Garfunkel. They were also onto the folk revival before Dylan arrived on the scene, with love for Pete Seeger, The Weavers, and Richard Dyer Bennet. #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylgram #vinylgeek #vinylcollector #marchvinylchallenge #records #smarch #vinylcommunity #vinylgram https://www.instagram.com/p/CqW0j_DA2ZB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Written For Talea was a spectacular night of world premiere music by Louis Karchin, Tyshawn Sorey, and Anthony Cheung (the latter two pictured, right to left), performed with precision, style, and engagement by @taleaensemble at @thedimennacenter.

It’s day 27 of the #smarchvinylchallenge by @brandudesrecordvault: Minty Fresh: An Album That is Still Sealed. Country Mike - Country Mike’s Greatest Hits (Grand Royal, 2000) This was a lovely - and hilarious - gift to receive for Chanukah and I greatly appreciated the thoughtful gesture. But I remain firmly convinced that the power of this object lies in its conception rather than its reality. So sealed it will remain! #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylgram #vinylgeek #vinylcollector #marchvinylchallenge #records #smarch #vinylcommunity #vinylgram https://www.instagram.com/p/CqT2ywBg7CG/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It’s day 26 of the #smarchvinylchallenge by @brandudesrecordvault: Something Festive: Happy Birthday, Brandude! Elvis Costello & The Attractions - Party Party b/w Imperial Bedroom (A&M, 1982) The A-Side was a fun song for a now-forgotten movie but the real treasure was the title track for Imperial Bedroom, an odd yet semiprecious miniature from an artist in his prime. #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylgram #vinylgeek #vinylcollector #marchvinylchallenge #records #smarch #vinylcommunity #vinylgram https://www.instagram.com/p/CqRllaFgpDw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It’s day 25 of the #smarchvinylchallenge by @brandudesrecordvault: Dressed To Impress. Jonathan Wilson - Dixie Blur (Bella Union, 2020) With new music on the way from the man, take a minute to celebrate the gorgeous Dixie Blur, his deep dive into strains of American music including folk, country, bluegrass, and rock’n’roll. Gorgeous package, too, with a die-cut, embossed cover and colorful vinyl. #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylgram #vinylgeek #vinylcollector #marchvinylchallenge #records #smarch #vinylcommunity #vinylgram https://www.instagram.com/p/CqOgYvNA-py/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It’s day 24 of the #smarchvinylchallenge by @brandudesrecordvault: Things Found In Records. David Bowie - Low (RCA, 1977) Maybe not that unique, but it sure gave me a thrill to find this fan club brochure in the used copy of Low that I bought in 1982. If I had bought it in 1977, I probably would have mailed it in! #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylgram #vinylgeek #vinylcollector #marchvinylchallenge #records #smarch #vinylcommunity #vinylgram https://www.instagram.com/p/CqMQzAmAkXA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
