collected clutter - recent vinyl spins and art books
got my copy of notes from vinegar hill by herman dune on cat eye yellow transparent vinyl. the songs are about los angeles and san pedro where i live. got my copy of gary panter's crashpad art book and it is wonderful. if you love underground comics this has many homages to rick griffin and the zap comics artists and psychedelic poster art. very groovy.
finally spun paul stanley's new soul station record and it is amazing! great soul tunes and the new songs fit it so well you may think they are old classics. i really love it. his voice sounds so strong. i grew up with all this music on am radio in the 70's and the whole album is really flawless. perfect for a summer bbq or just chilling out.
i liked gary panters crashpad so much i bought "songy" which i have yet to sit down with but now i have all three of the series.
also got a new copy of Iggy pop's lust for life on purple wax. it looks like black vinyl until you shine a light behind it. four guys with beards pressing. the vinyl sounds a bit quiet but not too bad, but not great. this is one of my favorite records.
i did a comic book page insert for psychic temple's houses of the holy out now on big ego / joyful noise records. it is getting great reviews and i'm so stoked to be part of such a great record. highly recommended listening.
