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.

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.
😂 😂😂

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.

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.

CURTIS MAYFIELD
Super Fly
1972 Canada pressing

More Friday night fire, baby!!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

This album is forever GOATED.

Funky, badass psychedelic soul music from one of the greatest blaxploitation films ever made.

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.

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?
😂
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 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.

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. 🎵

WILLIE NELSON
The Willie Way
1972 U.S. pressing

Oh, Willie.
Take me away…

It’s been a rough morning, following an even rougher night.

So my ass is staying home today and just feeding off of comfort music all day.

I’m gonna start with my KING of comfort, and my favorite album of his that I own.

A no more appropriate song for today than “Wake Me When It’s Over”.

Whatever way the “Willie Way” is, I’m all in.
I imagine it involves copious amounts of top-shelf weed.

MORT GARSON
Electronic Hair Pieces
Year Unknown Canada reissue

Yes! Finally!

This was the only Mort record I was missing, & I finally completed my Mort library this morning by finding this MINT copy downtown.

I am a huge fan of Mort Garson, as some of you may have noticed over the last 2 years.

This goes not just for his signature most famous album Plantasia, but everything.
His film and tv work over the years was equally as impressive, & he was never afraid to try something odd or interesting.

This is where Hair Pieces comes in.

I’d say that, no, it’s not his best album, but there’s enough cool shit on here to make it worth owning. Here, Mort attempts space-age Moog-ified versions of songs from the hit musical Hair.

Music I’m not a fan of to begin with, but Mort makes it more interesting for me.
It’s just the sound of Mort, baby.
