  1. MUDDY WATERS
    Muddy Waters At Newport 1960
    1960 U.S. MONO pressing

    Last spin of the night goes to one of the most important figures in the history of American music.

    Recorded in the dead-ass dog days of summer in 1960 in Newport, Rhode Island, a one hour drive away from where I grew up in Franklin, Ma, and a place where I was once arrested for urinating on a police car.
    I was only 19, so please don’t think it was yesterday.

    Whatever #blues Muddy was singing that day some 36 years prior DID NOT compare to the blues I was singing that night in the Newport Police Department.

    I wrote some bangers that night that would have made Muddy proud.
    Songs like “Please Don’t Beat Me With A Rubber Hose Twice”, “They Never Gave Me My One Phone Call”, and “My Stream Was A Lot Stronger Than I Thought”.

    Anyway… this record is essential for true blues fans.

  6. SYD BARRETT
    The Peel Sessions
    2025 Europe Unofficial reissue

    My birthday is on Wednesday, and a friend of mine just swung by the house to give me this as an early birthday present.

    He told me “It’s always 50/50 if I’m ever getting you a record for a present. I never know if you have it or not. I know you like this boot series though, so I took a gamble.”

    I DID NOT have it, and yes, I do REALLY like these Radio Broadcast releases. For “unofficial” recordings, all of them that I’VE bought (and I have a bunch of em) have been really good sound-quality wise.

    And this one’s no different.

    Five really great Syd solo tunes, my favorite of which has always been Baby Lemonade, which, has guitar by David Gilmour, as the studio album version does.

    I wonderful early birthday present.
    Thank you kindly, Richie.
    Most people are wrong about you.

  11. FRED NEIL
    Everybody's Talkin'
    1971 U.S. reissue
    [orange labels]

    A masterful songwriter, and a dude that had a LOT to do with a young Bob Dylan hitting the stage at Cafe Wha? in Greenwich Village.

    It still shocks me how many people think that “Everybody’s Talkin’” is a Harry Nilsson song, when in fact it was Neil who wrote it.
    That song only became a hit when Nilsson’s version was featured in the 1969 movie Midnight Cowboy.

    SUCH a hit that Neil’s self-titled ‘66 album (THIS ONE), was reissued under the name Everybody’s Talkin’, in order to capitalize on the film’s (and song’s) success.

    The album however is much more than that one song.
    The Dolphins is absolutely beautiful, as is Neil’s take on the traditional tune “Sweet Cocaine”.

    A laid back and stellar 38 minutes.
    Just such a great record.

  19. THE EDSEL AUCTIONEER
    Voice Of The Harolds
    1990 UK pressing

    Sweet-ass noisy Saturday jams.

    Kinda grunge-y, super loud indie rock from Leeds, and this is a mini-album that collects their first single, and E.P. material.

    Some Dino Jr., Husker Du, My Bloody Valentine and Pale Saints vibes, with great guitars. Super ragged and punchy sounding.

    John Peel heard their early demos and was so blown away by them that he brought them in Maida for a Peel session, which they recorded four songs for in 1988.

    I desperately need a copy of their 1992 album Simmer.
    So if anybody out there sees or comes across one… let’s make a deal.
    Yer friendly neighborhood Vinyl Ape will take care of you.

    But this is 100% worth checking out if you like any of the bands I compared them to, other genres where they sit.

    1. We should LISTEN to our elders

    2. Many of us GenZ have already put streaming and downloading music and books on the 'hardly ever' list in favour of #vinyl, #CDs, physical #books, #dumb phones , etc

  28. throwback to late October 2024 when I got my #ketsui disc for the #ps4 and played it straight until I got the 1CC 🫠

    my wife snuck a pic of me. I had forgot how stoked I was to get that title. so much so that I played in this awful configuration for several hours.

    I was on super easy mode trying to see the bosses when she got the pic.

  29. Staying with family at the moment in my former child bedroom. And just stumbled upon my bought version of "The Settlers 7" and it had a self burned disk with the no-internet crack on it in there too. I still think that single player games should work offline and that you should get to own it in perpetuity. And if you don't sell it that way that's your problem. There will always be solutions (or another fish in the sea).

    This album is forever GOATED.

    Lots of wah-wah guitars, gnarly percussion, funky-as-fuck bass, and Mayfield’s otherworldly falsetto.

    A masterpiece tour-de-force album by one talented, funky motherfucker.

  35. THE SMITHEREENS
    Green Thoughts
    1988 Canada pressing

    Friday night fire 🔥 🔥🔥🔥!!!

    Another band I learned about in the early #90s as a kid, by pilfering my older sister’s then-boyfriend’s cassette collection.

    I was instantly taken by the guitars, the melodies, and the band’s catchy songcraft.

    Don Dixon’s production is spot on here, too.
    This album just SOUNDS great.

    No offense intended towards anybody, but one of maybe only a handful of good things to ever come from New Jersey.
    Sorry/not sorry.
    You know?

    Another band I learned about in the early #90s as a kid, by pilfering my older sister’s then-boyfriend’s cassette collection.

    I was instantly taken by the guitars, the melodies, and the band’s catchy songcraft.

    Don Dixon’s production is spot on here, too.
    This album just SOUNDS great.

    No offense intended towards anybody, but one of maybe only a handful of good things to ever come from New Jersey.
    Sorry/not sorry.
    You know?
    😂
    You never have to wonder if someone’s from New Jersey.
    They’ll always tell you before you do.

  40. #EPA proposal could leave the public in the dark on #datacenter plans

    WASHINGTON (AP) — "A plan by the Environmental Protection Agency could make it harder for the public to learn about and comment on proposed AI data centers that have sparked backlash in communities across the United States and transformed the midterm election landscape.

    "The EPA proposal would eliminate a federal requirement that states notify the public and seek comment before issuing #AirPollution permits for data centers and other #IndustrialFacilities. States could still offer opportunities for public comment, but the EPA would no longer mandate them as a condition for states to grant permits.

    "Critics say the move could thwart local residents from learning about proposed data centers or making their voices heard before projects are approved and construction begins. The move comes during a widespread backlash as #TechGiants build hundreds of massive #ServerWarehouses to fuel #ArtificialIntelligence and #CloudComputing.

    " 'By eliminating the long-standing federal requirement for public notice, this proposal continues efforts by the Trump administration to turn its back on the fundamental EPA principle of transparency,' said Mike Koerber, a former deputy director of EPA’s air quality office.

    "If made final, the plan could create 'an unlevel playing field where citizens in one state are kept completely in the dark about new data centers and heavy industrial emissions in their backyards, while neighboring states maintain oversight,' he said.

    "Under the EPA plan, states with weak or no requirements for #PublicComment could speed permits for data centers, #PowerPlants and other #PollutionSources without consulting the public or even informing communities where the facilities are located, Koerber and other critics said."

  45. And the collection is complete. Today I received a new delivery of #physicalmedia , Guyver 2: Dark Hero from Toy Robot.

    The film is in a slip and has an extra Japanese(?) Style slip as well.

    There are two discs with the second featuring an enhanced version, apparently with AI. I have to admit, it does look better, they used the best available elements for disc one and its not great. Disc 2 is far less noisy but people's faces looked a touch waxy. As always, lots of bonus features.

  46. I know, I know, I keep banging on about Aethoria but that's because they're great! Plus this toot is about #physicalmedia and that's always a good thing.

    The first 100 copies were signed by the band and guess who was quick enough to get one. 👍😁👍 This guy! (Damn, need a mirrored thumbs up emoji!)

  47. THE CURE
    The Peel Sessions 1978
    2026 Europe pressing

    Super siked to snag this today.
    When I was a kid, I bought a cassette version of this released by Strange Fruit. I drilled that tape into the ground, particularly that version of “Fire In Cairo”.
    [cassette I had pictured below as well]

    I know there’s probably been about 50 different physical releases of these four Peel Sessions songs from ‘78, but I’ve never had a chance to replace my cassette copy until today.

    These performances are great.
    A young, scruffy, three-piece iteration of what would over time become one of the most important bands in the history of music.

    And again, I can’t stress this enough, this is my favorite version of “Fire In Cairo” that’s ever been committed to tape.

    Great sounding pressing too.
    Beyond pleased.
