I've been collecting records for as long as I can remember, and sometimes it's easy to skip over things, and forget what you've got. I'm going to start listening to things in alphabetical order, it give me a chance to look through my collection again, and give me an opportunity to share things with other music lovers, and vinyl collectors.
The rules are simple, I will start at A, and choose an artist from my collection beginning with that letter, next day I move on to B, then C, etc.
The story so far...
- A is for... Adam and the Ants - Kings of the Wild Frontier
- B is for... The Beatles - Abbey Road
- C is for... The Chemical Brothers - Exit Planet Dust
- D is for... Nick Drake - Bryter Layter
- E is for... Brian Eno - Ambient 1: Music for Airports
- F is for... Mark Fry - Dreaming With Alice
- G is for... Gong - Flying Teapot
- H is for... Richie Havens - Alarm Clock
- I is for... Incredible String Band - Wee Tam
- J is for... Jean Michel Jarre - Oxygene
- K is for... The KLF - The White Room
- L is for... The Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin II
- M is for... John Martyn - Solid Air
- N is for... The Nice - Autumn '67 And Spring '68
- O is for... Oneohtrix Point Never - Russian Mind
- P is for... Pink Floyd - A Saucerful of Secrets
- Q is for... Queen - Queen II
- R is for... Steve Reich - Different Trains
- S is for Squarepusher - Feed Me Weird Things
- T is for Tonto's Expanding Head Band - Zero Time
- U is for Underworld - Second Toughest In The Infants
- V is for Van der Graaf Generator - H to He, Who Am the Only One
W is for...
Steve Wonder - Innervisions
This one is an absolute bonefide classic, Stevie Wonder at the peak of his powers, alongside Talking Book and Songs in the Key of Life. I could have picked any three of these, but Innervisions pipped it, just.
Soulful, funky, bluesy, heartfelt, it's just beautiful. It features the synthesiser skills of Robert Margouleff and Malcolm Cecil who you may remember from the letter T, if you've been following my posts recently.
So here's my copy, it's a little beaten up, but it's well played and well loved...
And a couple of tracks from the album, to get your groove on...
