What Are You Listening To?

[sweetcell]

you need to at least put the band/LP title when it's just an image on the cover/label

+1, please. 

linking a Dropping like flies announcement is a nice touch, too.

so should we be adding the day of the week when someone drops too??  seems like a data point this forum is hungry for

personally i'm less interested in day of the week for passings, but a link to an obituary or an article on the deceased will increase our collective knowledge and increase the chance that we care about the recent passing, no?

ZZ Top - Fandango!

[Starsky]

This is the self titled US debut of a band called Everything but the girl

[Starsky]

I should add they played hardcore punk and came out of the same Orange County scene as Agent Orange.

Unfortunately their anti-feminist bent - clear from the name- and Nazi sympathies meant they had a short career (How Seymour Stein signed them is beyond me but he must have been horrified by this album cause they were dropped quickly) although I heard they recently regrouped to play Trump campaign events.

[Starsky]

Cedar Walton born James Whiteford to the famous tap dancing Whiteford family ran from an abusive family while in his teens and was supported in acting school by Sammy Davis Jr. adopting the stage name Cedar Walton marrying two of his favorite things: the smell of cedar and the tv show The Waltons. He eventually became a valet for Frank Sinatra then gravitated to the Manson family but was able to escape conviction. He reinvented himself as a disco singer after becoming close friends with OJ Simpson whom he physically resembled. Many insist he was OJ’s double in Blazing Saddles in the scenes that required acting chops.

wait - what?  who are you referring to??  EBTG are english, not from OC... i'm sure i'm missing something here.

[Cock Van Der Palm]

With lyrics like this, it is clear they are anti-feminist Nazi bastards:

I can tell by your eyes
That you've prob'bly been cryin' forever
And the stars in the sky don't mean nothin' to you
They're a mirror

I don't want to talk about it
How you broke my heart
If I stay here just a little bit longer
If I stay here, won't you listen to my heart?

If I stand all alone
Will the shadow hide the colour of my heart
Blue for the tears, black for the night's fears

And the stars in the sky don't mean nothin' to you
They're a mirror

I don't want to talk about it, how you broke my heart
If I stay here just a little bit longer
If I stay here, won't you listen to my heart?
This ol' heart

If I stay here just a little bit longer
If I stay here, won't you listen to my heart?
My heart, whoa, heart.

I like this new creative outlet, could make a thread on 'what if' band history

[kosmo vinyl]

ABBA - Voyage (duh)

but a bunch of cool new stuff out today

Jay Diggs - Jams
https://jaydiggs.bandcamp.com/album/jams
local dude tapping into 80s synth funk

Curtis Harding - If Words Were Flowers

plus Aimee Mann and Snail Mail

and its Bandcamp friday which stresses me out because i want to dive in deep and support new stuff, but i always end up supporting old favs

[kosmo vinyl]

wow the new Curtis Harding is really really good... top release for this year for sure... even in the background i'm getting later day Marvin Gaye vibes from it...

[Cock Van Der Palm]

Out of curiosity took a quick scan of new Abba.  Horrible just horrible. 

[kosmo vinyl]

will admit the ABBA album faded quickly... even kosmette called it chessy

the cleanse continues with a new fiery funk outfit from Oakland, CA called The Grease Traps - Solid Ground

https://greasetraps.bandcamp.com/album/solid-ground

[Julian, Bespoke SEXPERT]

even kosmette called it chessy

Kosmoette!? You're married?!
