🇩🇰 City-X "Dansende drenge" – 1983
There’s still a trace of new wave tension in this punk release in the rhythms, but the core energy is distinctly punk and direct, urgent, and confrontational. The vocals push forward with attitude and nervous intensity, giving the songs a street-level immediacy...

THE DEAD MILKMEN
Big Lizard in My Backyard (40th Anniversary)
2026 U.S. reissue
Red vinylI literally shrieked with delight when I saw this in the shop today.
The Dead Milkmen’s first studio album, & the very first one I heard.
This was another band that I got into via one of my sister’s boyfriends in the late #80s .
He was quite obsessed with the band, & one summer, he was nice enough to make me a blank tape copy of this on side A, & Beelzebubba on side B.Short, hilarious songs rife with satire, and super scruffy in the best possible way.
You know, both of my sisters’ boyfriends in the 80s may have been shitty boyfriends, but they had excellent taste in music.
I learned of about 50 awesome bands from them collectively.My sister: “I’m breaking up with Matt.”
Me: “I beg you to reconsider.”
My sister: “No.”
Me: “Can you wait a few days after I can borrow some more tapes?”

🇨🇭 The Young Gods "Play Kurt Weill" – 1991
A striking reinterpretation of Kurt Weill’s material through the band’s dark, sample-driven aesthetic. Rather than treating the songs as reverent adaptations, The Young Gods reshape them with industrial textures, mechanical rhythms, and dramatic sonic tension...

🇬🇧 New Order "Low-Life" – 1985
A refined and confident fusion of electronic dance music and guitar-driven melancholy. The album balances sequenced synth arrangements and drum machines with melodic bass lines and understated guitar textures, creating a sound that feels both emotional and rhythmically precise...

SONS
Minus Seeds And Stems
1972 U.S. pressingOne of the coolest and rarest records in my library, and one that I don’t pull out that often.
Super obscure, it’s a self-released album by The Sons Of Champlin. They put it out themselves after two years of contractual conflict between them & their label.
Not a slick finished studio album by any means, but a stunning odds and ends kind of a recording.
Is it #jazz ? #Psych ? #Rock ?
Who knows.It’s a mix of live recordings, improvs, rehearsal recordings, psych-jazz freakouts, & more. Really killer sounding late #60s San Francisco Freeform jams with NASTY ASS GUITAR PLAYING.
Original copies like this became highly collectible because the record was privately pressed in very small numbers and was never widely distributed. It remained unavailable on CD for decades & developed a reputation as one hell of a strange artifact.

42 years ago today, May 12, 1984, The Whites debuted at #82 on Billboard’s Hot Country Singles chart with “Forever You”. It went on to peak at #14 and spent a total of 17 weeks on the chart.
It’s been my hobby to collect 45 RPM singles. I enjoyed listening to this song on the radio. It was the first single from their album of the same name released in 1984 on MCA (Curb) Records.

RICHARD BEIRACH
Eon
1975 U.S. pressingA stellar early evening slice of cool #jazz .
It would make sense that I really love this record, seeing that I’m a fan of Bill Evans. There’s some similarities here in the music, but BEIRACH stretches things out into a more atmospheric and pensive direction in some spots.
It’s far more romantic sounding and less in-your-face as some of Bill’s recordings.There’s a 12 minute version of Miles Davis’ “Nardis”, another piece that was long associated with Evans.
Here, it comes off very hypnotic.Eon is a very underrated album from that whole mid-#70s ECM period.
A perfect ‘unwinding in the early evening’ kind of record.#vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #vinylcollection #retro #vintage #art #music #analog #richardbeirach #eon #ecm #1970s #70smusic

THE TOURISTS
Reality Effect
1980 Canada pressingUnearthed this gem from my basement today!
Super awesome #80s #newwave / #indie rock that lead to Dave Stewart & Annie Lennox forming The Eurythmics after they disbanded.
The album opener “It Doesn’t Have To Be This Way” is killer. But it’s a bummer that they put their cover of “I Only Wanna Be With You” as track 2.
I can totally do without that song, but if you HAVE to put it on… put it near the end of the record. It just disrupts the awesome tone that the opening track sets. It’s completely unnecessary.
That song aside, the rest of the album is truly excellent.
It’s tighter, more polished, and way catchier than their previous self-titled effort.UK fans may notice the track listing and sequencing is different here.
That was the case for all North American issues, omitting two songs & changing the order.#vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #vinylcollection #retro #vintage #art #music #analog #1980s #80sMusic #synth

EDDIE RABBITT
Someone Could Lose A Heart Tonight
1985 Canada pressingYer old pal Ape has a DEEP love and affection for Eddie Rabbitt.
That love goes way back to when I was 4 or 5 years old. I always used to hear him on my uncles’ country and soft rock stations, and it made quite an impression over the years.
This compilation is incredible.
It has every Eddie banger you could ever want, including the schmaltzy (but wonderful) “You And I” duet with Crystal Gayle.
Country, rock, folk, ballads, the dude could do it all.
He even wrote “Kentucky Rain” for Elvis.It’s crazy listening to this, because it becomes very apparent just how many instantly recognizable hit songs he had.
Eddie died way too young from lung cancer at 56 years old.
I’ve always felt that he’s one of the most underrated songwriters of all time.
Just so many great tunes, man.#vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #vinylcollection #retro #vintage #art #music #analog #folk #country #eddierabbitt

PALE SAINTS
In Ribbons (30th Anniversary Re:Masters)
2023 Worldwide Remastered ReissueA masterpiece of the #shoegaze genre.
I have as much reverence for this as I do Ride’s Nowhere or Slowdive’s Souvlaki.This remaster is phenomenal sounding! Clearer and louder, but not in any off-putting way. It’s very tastefully done, and it sounds the best it’s ever sounded.
The odd time signatures on a few of the songs has always been its most endearing quality for me. The guitars are great (super trippy and psych sounding), but it’s those rhythmic structures that have always stood out most.
“Ordeal” is mind-bendingly heavy and massive, “Throwing Back The Apple” is jangly and pastoral, and “Thread Of Light” features a beautiful vocal Meriel Barham.
Their final, and what I think is their BEST record.
I know I’m in the minority there, but it is.#vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #vinylcollection #retro #vintage #art #music #1990s #90s #90smusic #palesaints #artrock #analog

THE B-52’s
Wild Planet
1980 Canada pressingThe second B-52’s album, not as good as the first.
However, I’ve always had great affection for this album due to three songs in particular; “Private Idaho”, “Devil In My Car”, and “Give Me Back My Man”, which together make it worth owning.Besides, Fred Schneider is, as usual, in “full Schneider” mode.
Great fun.That dude is just one big gay party.

41 years ago today, May 11, 1985, Johnny Lee debuted at #79 on Billboard’s Hot Country Singles chart with “Save the Last Chance”. It went on to peak at #12 and spent a total of 18 weeks on the chart.
About the time this song was released, I saw Johnny Lee performing at a local bar here in Anchorage. It was a great show, and I especially liked hearing him sing this song.

RIVAL CONSOLES
Persona
2018 UK 2xLP pressingThe sound of human feeling struggling through difficult electronic systems.
A very tense sounding #electronic #minimal #ambient record that despite all its analog synth sequences and distorted, rhythmic pulses, sounds very emotional and human in a very real way.
These songs begin delicately or hypnotically, then become dense, anxious, and loud.
It’s a perfect album for late nights in a busy city; driving around NYC or L.A. maybe, without direction, just letting the night and music direct you.A damn fine record.

Various Artists
Down And Out In Beverly Hills
1986 U.S. pressingDOWN AND OUT IN BEVERLY HILLS is one of those movies I saw as a kid about 50 times.
It’s also the very first time I heard Randy Newman’s “I Love L.A.”, a song everybody thinks is celebratory because of its catchy hooks & usage at Lakers basketball games.
However, it’s a wonderfully scathing criticism of everything that’s obnoxious & awful about the city.
As a person who goes to Los Angeles regularly, I can’t help but hear that song in my head when walking around, & not in a good way.
It’s a brilliant song; the verses are completely detached from that catchy chorus, sarcastically taking down wealth, artifice, vanity, superficiality, & the city’s overall absurdity.It’s a great song, surrounded by a few Little Richard bangers and David Lee Roth on Side A, & the film’s score pieces on Side B.
“Someone's pissing on my hydrangeas!”

1986 UK pressingHello, Monday, you ugly sack of shit.
😂Needed a good mix to get going on this the most foul of all days.
Landed on this; a great mix of #80s #alternative #indie #postpunk snd weirdo #avantgarde tunes.
Great songs by The Weathermen, Executive Slacks, Young Turks, and Home And Garden to name a few.
To quote the great Steven Wright:
“Monday is an awful way to spend 1/7 of your life.”

Are these counterfeit original records, or are they unofficial records?
There is a difference between them, and unofficial records are sold by big distributors!

THE WOLFE TONES
Rifles Of The I.R.A.
1971 Canada pressingA lovely, VERY IRISH sounding folk record for a Sunday afternoon.
I found this in a thrift store not long after I moved to Canada around ‘07. It just looked really cool, and I assumed it would be some Irish folk record, and I was right.
However, I wasn’t prepared for how this album would catch me. I absolutely fell in love with it.
It’s got all the bells and whistles of traditional Irish folk balladry. Banjos, guitars, sing-along pub chants, whistles… the whole works.However… it’s got a kind of political rebel spirit underneath, the same kind that all the punk rock I listened to as a kid had.
I just adore these songs.
Particularly “The Sun Is Burning”.
Such a great album.#vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #vinylcollection #retro #vintage #art #music #irish #ireland #folk

SUR UNE PLAGE
Battle Fatigued
2018 Canada pressingThis is a Canadian art-pop / #electronic duo from Vancouver which features Josh Wells from the bands Black Mountain and Lightning Dust.
And although I’m not a huge fan of either of those bands, I do have a great deal of affection for THIS project and particularly this record.
Sometimes it sounds like Suicide or Kraftwerk, and other times like the synthiest, poppiest #80s bands; like Depeche Mode or even Duran Duran.
It’s a SUPER-FUN record, and hits me like all the classic bands and albums of the #synthpop #artrock albums of the late #70s and early eighties.Just 40 years later.

Hicks From The Sticks
1980 Canada pressingA KILLER compilation of #newwave and #postpunk meant to showcase bands from Northern England and other NON-London acts that were being ignored by the British music industry (and press) at the time simply for not being from London.
Tons of great bands that would go on to be important cult/underground acts like Modern Eon, Nightmares In Wax, Clock DVA, and Section 25.
It’s a great varied mix of cool music.
There’s even some icy industrial stuff here, as well as some atmospheric and experimental things, as well as some very melodic new wave.Phenomenal comp.
