Artist : Nasty Bits

Title : Woman Like You

Album :  Vinyl: The Essentials: Best Of Season 1

Even when I don’t recognize the name of the headliner, I’m always in for some Skelator.

I understand the point of articles about Vinyl based on the first episode, both the writers and the network want some publicity, so people can watch the thing, right? But it’s quite tricky to judge a book by only one chapter as one album by one song, so if you’re not a proper journalist please shut the fuck up.

This series is cool. Is about music and about a great period when punk, disco and hip hop emerged from mid to late 70′s. If you like music and have interest about the history of music and labels, you’ll be able understand little things that show up on the screen, like bands that exist and historical moments in NYC around that time. If you want another tv show to follow since you watched all Narcos episodes, please don’t waste our time.

There’s depth in this series but also there’s weak plots but who cares. New bands could watch this and figure out what was exciting about music. Same for DJs that rather buy a bloody song on Beatport and have no or little time for music. You’re not digging anything, you just read about the track, Lexx is the one that found, you’re not an innovator or anything like this.

Back to the series... If you liked, you can read a couple of books about the subject, especially this one:

Hit Men is neat and you’ll find more about people that inspired Richie Finestra, he’s a mixture of at least 3 characters from this book, also the mafia guys, you’ll understand the connections.
