In the same purchase picked up late VG+++ 70s pressings of Animals and Meddle. All of these from the same seller, crazy good condition.
I have already spun it though, and it is crazy quiet. Sounds really good, but I want to see where it stands listening to both back to back.Post edited by MedozK on0 -

When Beyoncé dropped the same ableist slur as Lizzo on her new album, my heart sank
Hannah DivineyIt’s not very often that I don’t know what to say, rendered speechless by ignorance, sadness and a simmering anger born of bone-deep exhaustion. But that’s how I feel right now.
Six weeks ago I called out American singer, Lizzo, on Twitter for her use of an ableist slur (“spaz”) in a new song. That tweet of mine – which explained how the slur was connected to my disability, cerebral palsy – took me less than five minutes to write and it went viral, landing on the front page of global news outlets including the BBC, New York Times and the Washington Post.
Lizzo herself even took notice, changing the lyric and giving us all a masterclass in how to be a true and effective ally.
I thought we’d changed the music industry and started a global conversation about why ableist language – intentional or not – has no place in music. But I guess I was wrong, because now Beyoncé has gone and done exactly the same thing. In fact, she’s used the word “spaz” twice in a new song Heated, a co-write with Canadian rapper Drake off her new album, Renaissance, which dropped on Friday.
I found out by way of a snarky mention on Twitter asking if I planned to tell Queen Bey to “do better” like I had with Lizzo. My heart sank. Here we were again, but this time the stakes feel higher. Calling this one out is a whole other level.
Whenever Beyoncé so much as breathes it becomes a cultural moment. She’s often the blueprint for the music industry – with artists and entertainers following her lead. That’s the status she has earned after decades of a career at the top, never making the same move twice, seeming to play in an entirely different league to the majority of the music industry.
Beyoncé’s commitment to storytelling musically and visually is unparalleled, as is her power to have the world paying attention to the narratives, struggles and nuanced lived experience of being a black woman – a world I can only ever understand as an ally, and have no desire to overshadow.
But that doesn’t excuse her use of ableist language – language that gets used and ignored all too often. Language you can be sure I will never ignore, no matter who it comes from or what the circumstances are. It doesn’t excuse the fact that the teams of people involved in making this album somehow missed all the noise the disabled community made only six weeks ago when Lizzo did the same thing.
It doesn’t explain how millions of people have already heard this album and yet aren’t raising the issue, except to make fun of or degrade the disabled community.
I’m so tired. Disabled people deserve better. I don’t want to have this conversation again.
I'm really hoping she comes around on this one. And it probably wasn't meant to be derogatory, but how do you tell that to someone with a disability? She would do well to make amends somehow. I guess we'll have to wait and see.It's not new to my knowledge, but then in the late 80's I subbed special ed a few times, have personally known Down Syndrome folks, have worked with people in the disabilities office at our local community college from the late 1990's to early 2000's, volunteered 1,000 hours at our health library, so I might take it for granted that most people know "spaz" is a derogatory term. To my way of thinking, it really should be common knowledge.And yes, same with "dork". Kind of hard to believe that one is still thrown around. It too, by definition, is a derogatory term.It seems to me that people who throw those terms around either have no experience with people with disabilities or maybe even have disdain for them. It sucks being disabled. Why make it harder? (I mean that generally. I'm not pointing fingers at anyone specifically.)"It's a sad and beautiful world"-Roberto Benigni0 -

The term "gypped" as in "gypped me on that price" is a derogatory term or so I have read. It refers to Gypsies. They get a lot of flack.
