Robert Plant: Digging Deep (Ltd Ed. 7” Box Set)

Robert Plant Digging Deep (Ltd Ed. 7” Box Set) Es Paranza I’ve loved Robert Plant’s Digging Deep podcast. In (usually) 15-20 minute episodes Plant is guided through his back-catalogue one song at a time, could be a Zeppelin track, is usually a solo one but that’s the surprise. One week it’s one of the lesser […]

Record Store Day 2017: List of Special Releases

April means Record Store Day and in fact we’re a month away from RSD as of today; the 10th Birthday for Record Store Day too – a day which many record collectors/retailers have mixed feelings about now since it was started as a way of generation interest/sales/community to the indie stores and is now yet […]

The Vinyl Countdown # 632

Delaney Davidson, Devil In The Parlour (2016) It’s a brand new/ish album so I’ve already addressed it in an actual review but this here is a file of LP bloggings, how records come to me, how I get to them – how we find each other. And you know, I was a bit slow to […]

The Vinyl Countdown # 909

Willie Nelson, Teatro (1998) It’s Record Store Day! But then, almost any/every day is Record Store Day for me. Or can be. I don’t need encouragement or a reminder. But I like that Record Store Day exists. The last couple of years I haven’t made it down –  hard to fit in around toddler naps […]

The J.B.’s: These Are The J.B.’s

The J.B.’s These Are The J.B.’s Now-Again Records A special (ltd) vinyl-only release, here’s a shelved album (originally planned for a 1971 release) by James Brown’s backing band, The J.B.’s. The Godfather himself contributes organ to a couple of the tracks, but these are sinewy groove-workouts, four instrumental cuts, two elongated standouts each going over […]

Billy Corgan: AEGEA

Billy Corgan AEGEA (Independent) I wonder if AEGEA, billed as Billy Corgan’s “experimental” solo album, and a worldwide limited edition might have been given more of a chance if it didn’t have his name on it – that’s the brand-damage right there. Because I reckon AEGEA is pretty wonderful, it’s also not really experimental, that’s […]

Air: Music for Museum

Air Music for Museum The Vinyl Factory Air’s first music since 2012 is the vinyl-only limited edition album, Music for Museum. It’s a set of chilled, ambient washes – and if that album title instantly has you thinking of Eno’s ambient albums from the 1970s the content within completes that picture. Reverse Bubble has shades […]

The Vinyl Countdown # 1312

The Cakekitchen, Kangaroos In My Top Paddock (2009) The work of Graeme Jefferies (and for that matter brother Peter) should be better acknowledged but it’s fly-under-the-radar stuff. That’s probably how they want it, in that you don’t write songs like Graeme Jefferies does with an ambition to hit the pop charts. But you do write […]
