MUDDY WATERS
Muddy Waters At Newport 1960
1960 U.S. MONO pressingLast 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.

SYD BARRETT
The Peel Sessions
2025 Europe Unofficial reissueMy 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.

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.#vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #records #vintage #retro #physicalmedia #analog #vinylcollection #art #music #60s #1960s #60smusic #folk

THE EDSEL AUCTIONEER
Voice Of The Harolds
1990 UK pressingSweet-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.

CURTIS MAYFIELD

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

THE SMITHEREENS
Green Thoughts
1988 Canada pressingFriday 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?
😂
You never have to wonder if someone’s from New Jersey.
They’ll always tell you before you do.

THE CURE
The Peel Sessions 1978
2026 Europe pressingSuper 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.

43 years ago today, September 3, 1983, Bandana debuted at #76 on Billboard’s Hot Country Singles chart with “Outside Lookin' In”. It went on to peak at #18 and spent a total of 18 weeks on the chart.
I enjoyed listening to this song on the radio and would turn it up! I was disappointed that it didn't become a Top 10 hit. But I went to my favorite record store to buy it. 🎵

STOMPIN’ TOM CONNORS
Pistol Packin' Mama
1971 Canada pressingOne of the BADDEST motherfuckers of all time, and an absolute Canadian legend.
The man ate, drank, slept, shit and bled Canada.
Four dozen albums, four million copies sold.
A masterful #country #folk singer/songwriter, particularly known for “The Hockey Song”, which for years, has been played at every Maple Leafs home game.He smoked 100 cigarettes a day, drank heavily, and was fully himself 2000% of the time.
He even refused to remove his signature black Stetson hat when he met the Queen of England (and they were OK WITH IT!).
He maliciously undressed “turncoat Canadians”; Canadian artists who went to the States to further their careers and conduct their business, and famously eviscerated the Juno Awards Board of Directors (please see next post for his vitriolic letter).
The dude fucking ruled.

OTIS REDDING
The Dock Of The Bay (The Definitive Collection)
1987 UK pressingIn the very early 2000s when I lived in NYC, I used to frequent a great bar called The Grand Press, 284 Grand Street in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
Over time, I slowly became infatuated with one of the bartenders there, a young, beautiful black girl named Yessica (not a typo).
She was stunningly gorgeous, had an incredible body, an infectious personality, & loved music (& musicians).After a month or so, I worked up the courage to ask her out.
She responded with the following:“Do you like Otis Redding?”
“Of course”, I said.
“Name me 10 songs, & you can’t name THAT song.”
I proceeded to name about TWENTY songs, & even sexily sang her a few bars of “My Lover’s Prayer”.
The following 6 months were the most wild & passionate days of my life.
THANK YOU OTIS.
I still have dreams of her.

THE HOLD STEADY
Separation Sunday
2025 U.S. 2xLP reissue
Ltd. Edition Gold Swirl vinylThe second THS record, and the one that truly put them on the map.
A killer concept record about a Catholic girl who gets engulfed by sex, drugs, and rock n roll, only to be spiritually redeemed at the end.It’s Springsteen, it’s #punk , it’s boozy bar band rock n roll.
Big and epic sounding, great lyrics, pounding guitars.
Just killer storytelling.This is where The Hold Steady fully became themselves.
Now, to be honest, if I’m listening to The Hold Steady, it’s.either this or Boys And Girls In America.
I’m not much a fan of anything that came after Boys and Girls, as the production got too big, & came off like classic rock. It was far less believable at that point & a bit contrived sounding.However, this & the album that followed are legitimately great.

THE JAM
BBC Sessions 1977-1979
2025 Europe pressing
Blue vinylAnother solid-sounding Radio Broadcast pressing, and this one is amongst the Joy Division issue as one of my favorites.
Three different Peel Sessions from The Jam here; a pair from 1977, and one from ‘79.
Some savage performances here, particularly “The Modern World”, “Saturday’s Kids” and “Eaton Rifles”.
Paul Weller, man.
The absolute dude.#vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #records #vintage #retro #physicalmedia #analog #vinylcollection #art #music #thejam #punk #indie #alternative #paulweller #recordcollector #recordcollection

Crusher
2026 U.S. Ltd. Edition pressing
Moonbag Grey vinylI’m always willing to try something I’ve never heard of if it has a NUMERO GROUP label on it.
More often than not, it tends to be a very satisfying experience.That is the case here.
A collaborative project between members of Duster and Dirty Art Club, Crusher is a record that’s very melancholic, restrained and sleepy. A super dream-like, hazy kind of #Slowcore with warped and warbly edges.
A wonderful late-night #ambient dream-pop album, or if you just wanna chill SEVERELY. It’s so damn comforting.
A pleasant surprise that I’m really enjoying, and I wouldn’t be surprised if it makes my favorite albums of the year list.
If you like this kind of music AT ALL, you’ll REALLY like it.
It’s really great.#vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #records #vintage #retro #physicalmedia #analog #vinylcollection #art #music #dreampop #shoegaze #etheral #atmospheric #electronic #sooj #crusher #duster #dirtyartclub

THE STROKES
Reality Awaits
2026 Worldwide pressing
Black Ice GlitterI wasn’t going to bother with this, but it’s so Reprehensibly bad, I will.
I hate this record so much.
The Strokes have special meaning to me, having experienced them in real time when I lived in New York, before Is This It? even came out, seeing them live several times around town.
I’ve appreciated how they’ve grown over the years, adding more surreal aspects to what they do, #newwave -y #80s vibes, etc…
However, after 1.5 listens, I can say this is THE WORST Strokes album of their entire catalog.
GARBAGE.
A band like The Strokes don’t need obnoxious Autotune effects.
The songs are dour, lifeless, & without any kind of personality whatsoever.
It sounds like a piss poor Strokes cover band that decided to inject a few originals into their Strokes set, & drown them in Autotune.AWFUL.

FRANK SINATRA
In The Wee Small Hours
2025 Worldwide MONO reissue
Blue Note Tone Poet SeriesFriday night with Old Blue Eyes.
These Tone Poet series albums from Blue Note sound otherworldly. I have a few of the Chet Baker ones, and they’re great too.
When I saw this today, and saw that it was a Mono cut by Kevin Gray, I needed no further convincing.
I wish everybody put as much care and detail into the sound of their reissues like these.
Just magnificent sounding.Not sure they’d bother giving this same treatment to September Of My Years, but it would certainly make me beyond ecstatic.
