AC/DC - Back in Black (Atlantic ‎– SD-16018, 1980) “You don’t see that one in the wild too often,” said my thrifting college as I flipped through my finds. Nope, you don’t. Certainly not in NM- condition either. . . . . . . . . #vinylaficionado #music #record #records #recordcollection #recordcollector #recordcollecting #vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcollection #vinyloftheday #coverart #vinylcollector #vinylcommunity #albumcover #albumcoverart #instavinyl #cratedigger #hifi #nowspinning #photography #followme #33rpm #acdc #malcolmyoung #bonscott #australia #1980 #backinblack

King Crimson - In the Court of the Crimson King (EG ‎– EGCD 1, E.G. Records Ltd. ‎– 0777 7 86485 2 9, CD, 🇬🇧) I’m nowhere near understanding this album, but I’m determined to keep exploring it. Released 48 years ago today! . . . . . . . . #vinylaficionado #music #record #records #recordcollection #recordcollector #recordcollecting #vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcollection #vinyloftheday #coverart #vinylcollector #vinylcommunity #albumcover #albumcoverart #instavinyl #cratedigger #hifi #nowspinning #photography #followme #progrock #kingcrimson #inthecourtofthecrimsonking #robertfripp #barrygodber #compactdisc #cd #greglake

Various, Jerry Goldsmith ‎– Gremlins (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) ( Geffen Records ‎– GHSP 24044, Geffen Records ‎– GHSP 24044 Y, 1984) Another one of those sorta Steven Spielberg, but not quite Steven Spielberg films from the 80s. “Gremlins” is a hard work to figure out. Is it funny? Is is terrifying? Is this horror? But it’s Christmas! But Gizmo. Amirite? . . . . . . . . . #vinylaficionado #music #record #records #recordcollection #recordcollector #recordcollecting #vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcollection #vinyloftheday #coverart #vinylcollector #vinylcommunity #albumcover #albumcoverart #instavinyl #cratedigger #hifi #nowspinning #photography #33rpm #gremlins #stevenspielberg #film #horror #horrorcomedy #gizmo #stripe

Steely Dan - Aja (Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab ‎– MFSL 1-033 & didx 55) I know, like me, that you wished it was true that Phil Hartman designed the cover art for "Aja," but it's not. Design: Patricia Mitsui Photography: Hideki Fujii Art Direction: Oz Studios. . . . . . . . . #vinylaficionado #music #record #records #recordcollection #recordcollector #recordcollecting #vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcollection #vinyloftheday #coverart #vinylcollector #vinylcommunity #albumcover #albumcoverart #instavinyl #cratedigger #hifi #nowspinning #photography #33rpm #steelydan #aja #1977 #fenderrhodes #philhartman #compactdisc #mofi #mobilefidelity

George Harrison - Cloud Nine (Dark Horse Records ‎– 1-25643, Dark Horse Records ‎– 9 25643-1, 1987) “I’ve Got My Mind Set On You” was released 30 years ago today; a wonderful single from what was one of the greatest albums of the 1980s. For me, however, I mostly remember riding the bus home from school during the late 80s. Each time this song came on, we would yell at our school bus driver to turn it up as it blared from his small boom box hanging off of the bus dashboard. “If you kids keep asking me to turn the volume up,” he used to say, “I’m gonna charge you for batteries.” . . . . . . . . #vinylaficionado #music #record #records #recordcollection #recordcollector #recordcollecting #vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcollection #vinyloftheday #coverart #vinylcollector #vinylcommunity #albumcover #albumcoverart #instavinyl #cratedigger #hifi #nowspinning #photography #followme #33rpm #thebeatles #beatles #georgeharrison #cloudnine #1987 #gotmymindsetonyou #jefflynne

The Allman Brothers Band - The Allman Brothers Band (ATCO Records ‎– SD 33-308, 1969) One of the silliest pieces of rock music lore is that one of the main reasons the Allman Brothers were not tremendously successful until the release of their “Fillmore East” album was because they were a far better live band than they were studio musicians. This - their first album - will change the mind of anyone who believes that tall tale. Well-crafted music coupled with red-hot playing which introduced the world to the concept that country/blues rock could indeed be funky. . . . . . . . . #vinylaficionado #music #record #records #recordcollection #recordcollector #recordcollecting #vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcollection #vinyloftheday #coverart #vinylcollector #vinylcommunity #albumcover #albumcoverart #instavinyl #cratedigger #hifi #nowspinning #photography #followme #33rpm #allmanbrothers #theallmanbrothersband #duaneallman #gregallman #blues

Gil Scott-Heron - Reflections ( Arista ‎– AL 9566, 1981) More from Gil Scott-Heron. Here, he’s more polished - and on a major label - but he still manages to keep things funky and couples it with timeless lyrical content . . . . . . . . #vinylaficionado #music #record #records #recordcollection #recordcollector #recordcollecting #vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcollection #vinyloftheday #coverart #vinylcollector #vinylcommunity #albumcover #albumcoverart #instavinyl #cratedigger #hifi #nowspinning #photography #followme #33rpm #gilscottheron #sunglasses #1981 #jazzfunk #jazz #funk #poet

Brad - Interiors (Epic ‎– EK 68137, 1997) We all had to patiently wait until 1997 before grunge could really successfully utilize a piano, but - by then - it was really too late, wasn’t it? Nevertheless, Shawn Smith and the gang - which included Stone Gossard - turned in what was a pretty solid, sophomore, major label release transitioning grunge into the confusing musical decade that would follow. I’ll bet you a buck that you’ll never get “The Day Brings” out of your head. Like, for your eternity . . . . . . . . . #vinylaficionado #music #record #records #recordcollection #recordcollector #recordcollecting #vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcollection #vinyloftheday #coverart #vinylcollector #vinylcommunity #albumcover #albumcoverart #instavinyl #cratedigger #hifi #nowspinning #photography #followme #brad #interiors #1997 #compactdisc #stonegossard #pearljam #motherlovebone #grunge
