the Cure album is outstanding!!!!!

This was a great eclectic list. I really need to listen to Mark Knopfler again and the Empire of the Sun- i didnt know they released an album this year. Great year for music! Here's my top 24 of '24: 1. Lizzy McAlpine- "Older" 2. Francis of Delirium- "Lighthouse" 3. Father John Misty- "Mahashmashana" 4. Josh Garrels- "Seek Hi Seek Lo" 5. The Lemon Twigs- "A Dream is All We Know" 6. Aquilus- "Bellum II" 7. Caligula's Horse- "Charcoal Grace" 8. Kacey Musgraves- "Deeper Well" 9. Vampire Weekend- "Only God Was Above Us" 10. Zach Bryan- "The Great American Bar Scene" 11. Fontaines D.C.- "Romance" 12. Arooj Aftab- "Night Reign" 13. Imminence- "The Black" 14. The Cure- "Songs Of A Lost World" 15. Benjamin Francis Leftwich- "Some Things Break" 16. The Black Crowes- "Happiness Bastards" 17. Dangermuffin- "Dangermuffin" 18. Alcest- "Le Chants de l'Aurore" 19. Ubiquity- "The Ascendant Travels Among the Stars" 20. David Gilmour- "Luck and Strange" 21. Opeth- "The Last Will And Testament" 22. MGMT- "Loss of Life" 23. Jon Batiste- "Beethoven Blues" 24. Leon Bridges- "Leon"

I'd agree that Thee Sacred Souls probably have the best *sounding* album of the year. My concern was only that it might have been *too* faithful to the original inspirations. Not sure what was added. It's probably a great intro to the sound, but I kept wondering to myself 'this is great, but why am I not listening to the original Philly soul artists?' Reminded me of the "Meet the Smithereens" album (a great band in their own right), which was a very faithful 'tribute' to "Meet the Beatles".

I would honestly be more curious what you don’t like at this point bro! Lol

Great video, thanks! Checking out Karate Boogaloo now.

I LOVE Idrees Sulieman! His album 'The Cats' with John Coltrane is great! 'Quiet Kenny' is a masterpiece! 😍 I first came across James Moody when Sky Arts showed Dizzy Gillespie and the United Nations Orchestra: Live at the Royal Festival Hall, London. Moody played a lot of flute and Steve Turre played conches! Incredible concert!

Wow man, I stumbled across your page earlier this year (from jazz stuff)and can't believe you don't have more subscribers. Amazing knowledge on ALL genres which I dig man, kinda like me - as I have the attention span of a 2 year old at 51 - I just mood to whatever although recently had a few years not listening to anything from my mental well being etc. However, I worked in and out of music stores here in NZ since 1989 to 2013 so had access to a large pond. I tend to more jazz these days and learning lots. I watched your video's on your BN and Prestige stuff and wowsers!!! Just nuts for me as hardly many O.G' DG's here really at the bottom of down under. Great to see you loving MC Lyte to GB to Fight, just freakin' cool to know a lot of quality and yes, Time Out of Dylan for me is pure class too! Great vid' - Cute kid too... I don't have the Macarena in my collection hahaha but it may be on some dodgy comp' i acquired on CD free from the record company back in day... Have a great Christmas and NY man, cheers, TC🙂🙃😊😎

Glad to see a new one from you! I like the quick-fire style in all your videos. I’m definitely gonna check out that Gene Ammons.

During the pandemic I found a guy on FB marketplace selling about 50 original Blue Note pressings, and among them was an OG Tina Brooks - True Blue. He wanted $650 for all of them and I was too broke! Went back a couple weeks later and they were gone

It seems that you never heard of the truly superb jazz piano genius named Herbie Nichols!!!

I once believed he was a cultural thief. But the movie did a good job showing Elvis roots and how he was influenced by black music and his dance moves from the holy rollers church. He also had the 3 degrees as backup singers. Diana Warrick credits him for helping her sell her records by signing them at one of his shows. I watched a documentary on Elvis, and it was very informative. Yes, in that era, a lot of white artists ripped out black artists, and the black artists never got the recognition they deserve. That was what happened in the music industry. But Elvis did credit to many black artists.

Thanks for the heads up. Gene Ammons Blue Gene is my next purchase.

I had the pleasure of seeing James Moody on sax a few times.

A lot of great musicians came through Prestige records.

a record can be the only source so can turn out to be the best source material. Tenor Conclave, Three Trumpets, Taylor's Wailers, James Moody Moody? not available on RUclips Music.

Thank you for this video! I loved hearing the Quiet Kenny album you showcased, so good.

1989- I knew vinyl was in big trouble, because i started to see regular catalog titles go " cutout". The cutout bins were growing bigger than the new vinyl section. Also, i started seeing new vinyl being put on the floor, under the cd browser sections. 1990 was the year when it was obvious vinyl was about to be gone. Half the new releases didnt even come on vinyl, and all the discount stores like Kmart had gotten rid of vinyl completely. By late 89, some top 40 singles werent made on 45, just cassette single, CD singles were still new to USA in 89. By the way, that Madonna was sprayed with incense - see if you can still smell it. In 89, i graduated from college and bought a lot of records. I had a used record store near me, that had brand new promos for cheap. CDs were expensive, so i got a lot of 89 vinyl promos for $4. They were unsealed, but played once, if that. I got Junkyards debut, Dangerous Toys, Lethal Weapon 2 soundtrack, Simply Red a new flame, Queens The Miracle, Traveling Wilburys, Babyface debut, Starship-love among cannibals, chicago - greatest hits 82-89, rolling stones-steel wheels, Eric Clapton Journeyman, B52s Cosmic Thing, 10,000 Maniacs- Blind Mans Zoo, Big Audio Dynamite - Megatop Phoenix, Accept-eat the heat and that Duran Decade. I got the Bankstatement "throwback" 45, but never got the full album. I got a lot, but wish i had gotten more vinyl and less CDs. That same record store had a stamped promo of Appetite For Destruction with original cover and a typed 3 page letter from Geffen, explaining who Guns n Roses were, and that Appetite would be released august 87 - my most prized possession cost me $4

This fine ol NC boy done know his shit no doubt hands down yet the Slayer dude T I'd somewhat annoyingly misleading if he had a Jack Bruce or Tony Williams t shirt on it would be more moving than this silly Slayer t.

It's funny, because I too will purchases albums that are barely passable listening wise, but they make a great tent pole as far as a snapshot of time.

I wanna hear what was actually recorded in the 50s and 60s and being replayed.

love the video, great albums and i agree with you, thank you

Great review, many thanks ✌️

Great. I also bought the vinyl

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

😃Great to meet Ya🎸🥁Thanks for this insight! I still need to hear original mix of Forbidden. Love the album tho especially Rusty Angel✨⭐️⭐️⭐️

The reason why Cozy Powell wasn't invited to rejoin Black Sabbath after Tyr, is because of shady label deals. I.R.S was a sinking ship, they coerced Tony Iommi into an attempted reunion of the Heaven and Hell era line-up, so they could all make more money, thinking it would save the label. This is not the first time a record label has taken advantage of Tony Iommi. When Tony was finished with Sabbath in around 82/83, after Dio left, Iommi was ready to start his solo career, that first record for Tony's solo career would have been "Born Again" > hence the namesake of the album title. Iommi already had that album written, another vocalist in mind, however, due to added pressure by Warner Bros. Records, he recruited Bill Ward, Geezer Butler back in the band, alongside Ian Gillan - who was only doing this as a favor to Tony. Due to the pandemonium of "Born Again" , with Geezer, Bill at the helm, it caused hype, rumor of Ozzy rejoining Black Sabbath. After the "circus" that was "Born Again", Iommi was ready to finally start his solo project, it was going to be called; "Seventh Star". However, it turned out that Iommi had owed Warner Bros. Records one more album, so it was released under Warner Bros. Records as another Black Sabbath record. As Tony had no plans to continue on as Black Sabbath, he started once again looking for members to join his new outfit. Ray Gillen originally replaced Glen Hughes halfway through a tour, which is how he managed to appear on the demo version of "Eternal Idol", the way it was on thos demos, was how it was going to sound as a fully produced album. When Tony Martin stepped in he didn't really change anything at all. The reason why the Eternal Idol is often left out in re-releases is because it was on a different record label with Universal/Vertigo. As they released the Headless Cross, Tony Iommi saw the potential for Black Sabbath to pick up where Dio left off, however, by the time Tyr was released, I.R.S records was in financial ruins, hence you get the subsequent Dio reunion, without Cozy Powell. It was the record label's ploy to try and pull record sales, however, fans had lost interest in Black Sabbath by the time they released Dehumanizer. Dio wanted out, Tony Martin was invited back to rejoin, Cozy Powell came back in 1994-1995. He was also working with Brian May, opened for Guns N' Roses, also played with Peter Green, Yngwie Malmsteen, which was more financially lucrative for Cozy as this point, since he was working some office jobs in-between. This lead up until his passing in 1998, also having an affair with a marrieed woman, until his death in 1998.

And you have one of the best unboxing previews I've seen and appreciate seeing the original pressing of those albums that was awesome hopefully you'll do some more album previews

He originally remixed that album in 22 but didn't have a label for it at the time

Most diehards are staunch Ozzy Osbourne Sabbath albums and don't buy anything else

Yes Tony Martin is a great singer and cozy Powell is a legend

Great boxer love it the music sounds great on it

Amazing to see that these records survived in such great condition, glad to see they are cared for, many hours of great listening experience!

Good job ken from England just got to your page please it coming . Thank you. Ps have say your LPs are in great order.

Would reaaly like to see his system that he listens to these great jazz albums on!

I really really enjoyed this. So many amazing Blue Notes. I was really floored by that copy of City Lights Lee Morgan, that one gies for $4000 nowadays. Also loved when you said you think Roll Call is every bit as good as Soul Station, I was like "finally someone agrees with me!" Haha

Nice, probably the greatest OG Blue Note video I ever saw

I love all these videos so far. I love the stories and anecdotes so much. picked up a lot of good recs from this, thank you!

Thank you very much for your first three videos. I hope to see more in the future should you get around to uploading some.

Same here with baritone sax.Do you know Lars Gullin? I started with Serge Chaloff way back when. Same here with Mulligan. I have the original 10 inch pressings.

Finally someone else who appreciated Tracy Chapman’s Crossroads! I love playing that record. Really enjoy your videos, I hope you’ll be making some more
