I just picked up _____ on vinyl!

tremors

Went to a record fair today:



Peter Gabriel, Passion (music to The Last Temptation of Christ)




double clear vinyl





I got this not knowing a thing about it. I thought it might be a bootleg released back in the day - but having had a scout around here, I see this is starting to do the rounds - released 2011. Not listened yet. 1990 studio rehearsal apparently.

That's not your actual picture is it? I know YOU wouldn't hold a record like that!

Hope not, hate to see people hold records like that.

Yeah baby! I've been doing some serious spinning this weekend.

I just played the Time Out of Mind - I was in a trance for most of it! I always think of that as a recent album, it's one of my favourites that I play many times in a year - but I was remembering I went to see him in concert on that tour - and when I think back to that it seems forever ago. Recorded music keeps it fresh in your mind I guess. I love music!

Elliott Smith is a great songwriter, most of his early stuff is lo-fi, acoustic guitar type of songs, but then when he had a full band play on his albums, the songs were even better. He mostly writes guitar and piano type songs with incredible lyrics, but alot of it is kinda depressing, as he was a tortured soul (killed himself), but an absolutely phenomenal songwriter, definitley worth getting into, just beautiful

thanks, sounds indeed as if I'd like it! will get to listen to some I enjoy especially this kinda music on vinyl

The above mentioned Ray Lamontagne vinyl is an album which ALWAYS takes me back to the place I left. It pulls me up when I'm down and it pushes me back to the ground when I'm about to explode, love this ..... Just as you said above, it's almost like he's in your room when you close your eyes

i think you'll like his music, Yvonne. Smarchee's right...most of the music is very dark lyrically, but it is absolutely beautiful. plus, he could play the hell out of the guitar. there's a lot of debate about his death...some say murder, some say suicide...and it is still unsolved.

here are a couple of samples for you:
