Fleet Foxes - The Electric Lady Session I kind of promised myself I wouldn’t do RSD Black Friday this year but last minute I gave in to temptation. That being said this was the only exclusive I bought (along with a handful of records from a $9 clearance bin). Crack Up is a favourite of mine so I figured I might as well pick up this companion which features some of my favourite tracks from the record. On Another Ocean being my favourite as of right now. It’s nice to hear these songs with a little added colour now that they are a little more road worn. . . . . . #FleetFoxes #Crackup #TheElectricLadySession #WFUV #RSD2017 #Recordstoreday #RSD #Recordstoreday2017 #Recordstoredayblackfriday #recordstoredayblackfriday2017 #vinyl #records #nowplaying #nowspinning #Thelinernotes #albumart #vinyligclub #recordcollector #vinylgeek #recordcollection #vinyladdiction #albumart #vinylcollectionpost #records_feature

Van Morrison - Astral Weeks There's nothing particularly interesting about this pressing of Astral Weeks (standard EU reissue) but I figured while in Ireland I might as well get a (Northern) Irish album. I love this album because it's not quite folk, not quite jazz, not quite spoken-word, not quite anything but itself. The stream-of-consciousness style of this album is it's own thing and really feels like the channelling of a summers day on the road. The first day I was in Ireland my girlfriends uncle put this on in a bit of a tongue in cheek way but it turned out to perfectly soundtrack our drive into the mountains outside Dublin. I managed to bang up the sleeve the day after I bought it on the bus but now it's got a bit of character. Madame George is on of those "play this at my funeral" songs. . . . . . #VanMorrison #AstralWeeks #WarnerBrothersRecords #vinyl #records #nowplaying #nowspinning #Thelinernotes #albumart #vinyligclub #recordcollector #vinylgeek #recordcollection #vinyladdiction #albumart #vinylcollectionpost #records_feature

Tim Hecker - Ravedeath 1972 Nothing like a warm bath of fuzzy noise after a long day of work. This is one of my favourite Hecker albums which is saying something. I love Heckers ability to harness white noise and warp it into a weird foggy blanket. I saw an interview with him once where he discussed fog. He seems to have quite the fixation with it and it comes across in his music. In that same interview he mentioned that he has a PhD. And his research was on megaphonics (really loud noises). There is, unsurprisingly a chapter on foghorns. Speaking of which, I did my MA at a nearby school and my professor once told me to get in touch with another professor who turned out to be Heckers supervisor. Unfortunately I didn't get to meet him when I was in Montreal but there's my six (three) degrees to Tim Hecker. Some other facts about this album. Ben Frost plays on and engineered this album. The photo on the front comes from the MIT "piano drop." A yearly tradition one of the residences has where they drop a piano from the roof (there's some great videos on YouTube of this) . . . . . #TimHecker #ravedeath1972 #Kranky #Krankyrecords #pianodrop #BenFrost #vinyl #records #nowplaying #nowspinning #Thelinernotes #albumart #vinyligclub #recordcollector #vinylgeek #recordcollection #vinyladdiction #albumart #vinylcollectionpost #records_feature
