  1. Julian Lennon, The Secret Value of Daydreaming, 1986 on Atlantic

    This was Julian Lennon's sophomore album, following Valotte. Billy Joel joins on piano on "You Get What You Want." It was recorded at Compass Point in the Bahamas and produced by Phil Ramone (who also produced his debut). Was startled to see the twin towers on the inner sleeve so close to the 25th anniversary of 9/11 - not sure what that image has to do with the this album and thought for a moment someone had changed the inner liner. You can see other photos from the shoot on Timothy […]

  3. Carole King, Tapestry, 1971 on Ode

    Sophomore album from Carole King (her debut album was called Writer), this album is often cited on shortlists of the greatest albums of all time. It was produced by Lou Adler, and won four grammy awards in 1972. It's been certified 14x platinum. You can find a copy of Rumours in just about any record store, but they ought to have a bunch of copies of this too. My copy—via Music Heals in Palm Springs, CA—is a Monarch Pressing on the ODE labels without the 7 in front of their logo […]

  8. John Prine, John Prine Live, 1988 on Oh Boy

    Recorded live at the Coach House in San Juan Capistrano, except for the "Angel From Montgomery" with Bonnie Raitt, which was taken from the Steve Goodman tribute concert, and "Souvenirs" which comes from an Austin City Limits episode. It's mostly Prine and his guitar, telling stories and singing songs - a bit of a filler perhaps between studio albums but worth it as all his recordings are. My copy—direct from Oh Boy Records—is the 2020 reissue, which unfortunately is quite a noisy […]

  10. Regina Spektor; Home, Before and After; 2022 on Sire

    I was a bit obsessed with Soviet Kitsch, Spektor's major label debut, when it came out in 2004 via Sire (she'd previously self-released it), as well as Begin to Hope which included the song "Samson". This is Spektor's eighth full-length album and her sixth for Sire. It was produced by John Congleton (along with Spektor herself) who also joins on multiple instruments in different tracks. It's not as fresh as here sound was in the early aughts but she sounds great and I think her songwriting […]

  12. David Byrne & St. Vincent, Love This Giant, 2012 on 4AD

    Two of the most creative and eclectic artists and musicians collaborate here on a brass-band heavy record. (St. Vincent also contributed to Here Lies Love, Byrne’s collaboration with Fatboy Slim – a concept album / rock musical about Imelda Marcos).

    The Dap-Kings and the Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra join on “The One Who Broke Your Heart” and John Congleton co-produced with Byrne, St. Vincent (Annie Clark), and Patrick Dillett.

    Fantastic album – unexpected but once you get to know it you can’t imagine how it could be any better.

    My copy (based on runouts) is a somewhat later pressing (indeterminate) with markings from both Optimal Media GmbH and United Record Pressing – via Electric Fetus in Minneapolis MN

  15. Angel Olsen, Whole New Mess, 2020 on Jagjaguwar

    Whole New Mess presents new takes on the tracks from Angel Olsen‘s 2019 All Mirrors: though actually the Whole New Mess versions were recorded earlier, in 2018 at The Unknown, a studio in a former church in Anacortes Washington. (It is labeled as “the primer and precursor to All Mirrors“).

    It was produced by Michael Harris and mixed by John Congleton, but is just Olsen and her guitar where All Mirrors had a full band.

    She performed earlier this year at the Cabot Theatre – great show which I neglected to post about here.
