Vinyl 🎧

I have been writing a lot again this month so not a lot to post, however, I have been listening to a lot of music … You can listen to it all here …

Its been a while since I have posted a playlist, so I thought I would do one of all of the coloured vinyl I have been playing over the last few months … Here are some pictures of them in their full glory …

Here are my top ten and bit albums of 2015 (yes I know one is a remake, one was first released in 2014 and one is an EP). Steven Wilson Hand. Cannot. Erase.↗ Vennart The Demon Joke↗ Charlie Barnes More Stately Mansions↗ Leon Bridges Coming Home↗ Sweet Billy Pilgrim Motorcade Amnesiacs↗ Nordic Giants A Séance of Dark Delusions↗ ...

As everyone who knows me will already know, I am a little bit opinionated when it comes to music. However, I haven’t really had a decent sound system for quite a few years. I decided mid last year that I would do something about it and not only start getting back into vinyl (I know, such a hipster) but also get a decent sound system, so started saving. For quite a while I was looking an all-in-one system like the Teac LP-P1000↗ however, I decided I would end up painting myself into a corner with it as I would be only be able to use it in one room, I then started looking at other options. ...

According to my LastFM profile↗ I have been listening to the following a lot this month … David Bowie — Nothing Has Changed↗ The Smashing Pumpkins — Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness↗ New Order — Get Ready↗ The War on Drugs — Lost In The Dream↗ Amplifier — The Octopus↗ Flying Colors — Flying Colors↗ Depeche Mode — Songs of Fair and Devotion↗ Suede — Dog Man Star↗ The Stone Roses — Second Coming↗ Led Zeppelin — Led Zeppelin IV↗
