I’m more of a fan of their early stuff (saw them in 85), but have followed them since. This is not a record I am super familiar with, even though I have it #johnsCDs I have a lot of their stuff in #johnsvinyl including quite a few singles. OPs have gotten pricy these days, given their giant fandom.
Outer sleeve and CD. Kim Gordon (2019) “No Home Record”
One of a few from #johnsCDS that qualify for #5debutalbums1519 Purchased and then not listened to. But now I’m wondering why #nowplaying
Another #1001albums entry @1001albumsgen.bsky.social that I listened to on 🍎 today (I have a copy in #johnsCDs) #21/1001. Epic is a great track but the album is weak overall. #wasplaying ⭐️⭐️⭐️ 3/5
Good point. I have a few of his in #johnsCDs. But not the debut.
Outer cover and CD. Sinead O’Connor (1990) “I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got”
Today’s listening assignment for #1001albums #15/1001. I haven’t spun this in a looong time, so it’s great to revisit it. So powerful and profound. RIP #Sinead #johnsCDs #nowplaying ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4/5
I have it also. In #johnsCDs however.
Outer cover and CD. Living Colour (1988) “Vivid”
Starting my day with a double dip for both #5debutalbums8589 and #1001albums #14/1001. This is an amazing record that I definitely need in #johnsvinyl. Such a great mix of metal, punk and funk that only they could pull off. #johnsCDs #nowplaying ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4/5
Outer cover and CD. Dr. Dre (1992) “The Chronic”
First up today is yesterday’s assignment for #1001albums @1001albumsgen.bsky.social My #11/1001 and first one from #johnsCDs
Dre stretches out post-NWA with some serious but funky rhymes #nowplaying ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4/5
Thanks for the reminder! I’ll have to make an exception and spin mine from #johnsCDs.
O/4 in #johnsvinyl. Primitives in #johnsCDs
Great era for me; I have a big trove of qualifying records in #johnsvinyl. Not as many as #5debutalbums8084 (185!), but my initial digging resulted in >60, w/ another >25 in #johnsCDS & #johnscassettes (but I don’t plan to consider those). I need to get busy cleaning & listening! #5debutalbums8589
Spines of 11 CDs.
Covers of three vinyl records.
I have a very limited selection of qualifiers for #5debutalbums0509 from #johnsvinyl and #johnsCDs —and I’ve listened to them all. Looking forward to seeing the top ranking selections from this poll so that I can make some additions. Now to vote…
Outer sleeve and CD. Flight of the Conchords (2008) s/t
My last spin for #5debutalbums0509 before voting. I saved this one for last. I enjoyed it in the day, but haven’t spun it for a very long time. #johnsCDs #nowplaying
Outer cover and CD. Adele (2008) “19”
Next up for #5debutalbums0509 from #johnsCDs. Sometimes I don’t love her songs, but her voice is always great. #nowplaying
Outer cover and CD. Mumford & Sons (2009) “Sigh No More”
Hopefully SCV @indashadoz.bsky.social won’t disown me for this…. But I have to spin it for #5debutalbums0509 since I have it #johnsCDs Good thing Julie @sabercatwoman.bsky.social isn’t here, as she wouldn’t allow it. But I think it’s got its place. #nowplaying
Outer cover and CD. Eddie Vedder (2007) “Into the wild”
Next up for #5debutalbums0509 is this one that I forgot I had. It’s decent, but not amazing. #johnsCDs #nowplaying
Outer cover and CD. LCD Soundsystem (2005) s/t
Spun this earlier today for #5debutalbums0509. I like it quite a bit, but since it’s only in #johnsCDs, I don’t play it often enough. #wasplaying
Outer cover and CD. Vampire Weekend (2008) s/t
Continuing #5debutalbums0509 from #johnsCDs. Pleasant and interesting indie-pop that I was never quite into. #nowplaying
Outer cover of CD. Lady Gaga (2008) “The Fame”
Next up for #5debutalbums0509 from #johnsCDs. My daughter was immediately a big Gaga fan (“Little Monster”). We saw her in 2010, headlining Lollapalooza. Great memory. #nowplaying
Outer cover and CD. Gnarls Barkley (2006) “St. Elsewhere”
Shifting gears for #5debutalbums0509 with this classic debut from Cee-Lo & Danger Mouse. #johnsCDs #nowplaying
Outer cover and CD. Kaiser Chiefs (2005) “Employment”
Next up for #5debutalbums0509 from #johnsCDs. I picked this up for $2 a few years ago and then promptly filed it away. So it’s a 1st spin/ listen. Pretty good stuff by some lads from Leeds. #nowplaying
Outer cover and CD. Cold War Kids (2006) “Robbers & Cowards”
Next up for #5debutalbums0509 from #johnsCDs “Hang me up to dry” hooked me right away. Haven’t spun this forever. It holds up. #nowplaying
Outer cover of CD. Arctic Monkeys (2006) “Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not”
Next up from #johnsCDS under consideration for #5debutalbums0509. Sheffield’s original blog rockers. Great record that I hadn’t listened to for a long time. Might need to add it to #johnsvinyl. #nowplaying
Digging into my qualifiers for #5debutalbums0509 from #johnsCDs —the first of 11. I played the hell out of this at the time. Sweet and Hoffs are such a perfect match. And the songs that they chose to cover were brilliant. And I keep the receipt (dated 1 month after release) #nowplaying
137 vinyl records in two crates.
After 24 days, I’m calling game for my spinning of candidates for #5debutalbums50s60s. In the end, I have 137 records in #johnsvinyl of which I spun 134 (plus 2 from #johnsCDs). Looking forward to listening to the few I have for #5debutalbums0509
Outer cover and CD. Os Mutantes (1968) s/t
Next up for #5debutalbums50s60s from #johnsCDs is this eponymous debut from Brazil. A nice integration of pop and psych. #nowplaying
Outer cover of CD. The Miracles (1960) “Hi... We're the Miracles”
While digging out my small pile of #johnsCDs for #5debutalbums0509 I came across of couple more qualifiers for #5debutalbums50s60s. #nowplaying
Another one in #johnsCDs. Thx for the reminder.
First pass from my collection:
2 in #johnsvinyl
9 in #johnsCDs
That’s a single days listening for me 😆
Among them, only Leonard is a contender for me. I only have Cohen and Band in #johnsvinyl. Byrds and Drake relegated to #johnsCDs at the moment.
