Now spinning Stevie Wonder’s In Square Circle. This is the first clean copy of this album I’ve ever found in the wild in the used bins. “Overjoyed” is my favorite track here, and when you play it loud, you can really hear the intricacies in the production, especially the subtle sounds of nature woven into it. Such a beautiful song.

@JonahKagen’s “Talkin’ About Jesus” takes a promising first date and turns it into a raw, vulnerable folk-rock anthem about longing, faith, and not being seen. It’s intimate, cinematic, and deeply relatable.

@justjaynemusic’s “Death & Taxes” is a lighthearted country-pop anthem built on sharp lyrics and gorgeous three-part harmonies. It may not reinvent the wheel, but it absolutely hits the mood.

Last year I went to a vinyl record giveaway and while I was crate digging, the store played a track that made me stop in my tracks. As soon as the record ended, I asked if that album was part of the giveaway, and they handed it to me. I love discovering fantastic jazz vocalists, and when I started digging into Tony Lee Scott’s history, wow, there are so many stories in the music industry that people have forgotten or overlooked. Her story alone is incredibly intriguing.

Currently spinning Ironhorse’s self-titled debut. Fun fact, the band featured Randy Bachman, best known as a founding member of The Guess Who and Bachman-Turner Overdrive. Ironhorse only released two albums, but this debut honestly isn’t that bad. Solid late 70s rock that deserves a little rediscovery.

Now spinning Art Garfunkel’s Watermark. When you see a promo copy from a legacy artist in the dollar bin, you pick it up. The original version of this album reportedly only existed as test pressings and a handful of commercial copies and was briefly available in 1977. This promo is the revised version that added what the label thought would be the hit single, “What a Wonderful World,” with Paul Simon and James Taylor harmonizing. Pretty interesting tidbit.

Currently spinning Linda Ronstadt’s Heart Like a Wheel. As a collector, the condition of the media is just as important as the quality of the music. When I saw this pristine copy, sleeve and disc, of a 1974 pressing of one of Linda’s best albums for three dollars, I couldn’t resist.

Currently spinning Aviary’s self-titled debut. I found this promo copy at a grab-what-you-can sale and had never heard of this band before. Ended up having a lot of fun with this record. With so much music released over history, albums like this make me wonder what else I’ve never heard and what might still be sitting on record label shelves.

Currently spinning this Japanese import of an Ike and Tina Turner compilation. I realized I didn’t have enough Tina Turner on vinyl, and when I saw this for five bucks, I had to pick it up. I love Japanese vinyl. The packing of this 1972 release is so dope. Just bummed this copy didn’t have its original obi strip.

Currently spinning The Great Impersonator by Halsey. I’ve always enjoyed her music, but I gained a whole new level of respect when I learned the concept behind this record. Each song is inspired by an artist who influenced her, and it’s fascinating to hear how she writes within those frames of reference while still sounding like herself. This is a true concept album that rewards multiple listens. It did well commercially and critically, but as a music nerd, I think it deserved even more shine. This is exactly the kind of album I love sinking my teeth into.
