50 something liberal. Anti-Maga. I'm sick of all the bullshit. I love records and hi-fidelity listening. I also play Pokémon Go (since 2016). By many people's standards, I am successful, but I am still seeking something more from my existence.
Homework by Daft Punk. First had this album on CD. Purchased it right before my daughter was born. She recently turned 27.

The power supply to my Mark Levinson amp was replaced, so we are back to the moving cartridge set-up. Nice to have the audiophile components back.

Not my usual musical style, but my massage therapist recommended I give this a listen last April. What a year she has had, and now up for album of the year. Pop perfection. Check out her Lollapalooza performance, 90K people showed up.

My favorite guitar solo is Kirk's work on One. Melted my face the first time I heard it, and it still moves me after all these years.
Lack of bass in the mix aside, I do love this album.
And Justice For All by Metallica. US 1st press.

You what Metallica is? They are one hell of a cover band. This was my first exposure to them back in 1987, and it still brings the heat.

Scumdogs of the Universe by GWAR. US 1st press on Master Records.
While this may have originated from a joke, it is a great metal album. RIP Dave Brockie.
"This deli tray is unacceptable" may be the finest metal lyrics ever uttered

Saturday Listening Session
We are doing critical listens of various records. Little conversation, lots of just Listening intently.
First up: Life's Too Good by the Sugarcubes. Björk's last band before going solo.

Somewhere in Time by Iron Maiden.
My first exposure to the band was 39 years ago. Blew my mind the first time I heard it, and continues to be my favorite all these years later. Just saw them last October, and they were incredible.

Stranded by Roxy Music (1973)
The third album from the band and the first album were the lead singer, Bryan Ferry was not the sole songwriter. I am slowly diving into Roxy Music, and overall, I am enjoying them

Up next!
Ragin', Full On by Firehose.
I first heard Firehose's "Brave Captain" as the backdrop to the Natas Kapas segment of the Santa Cruz skate video, "Streets of Fire." Early boardslide on a handrail and the crazy fire hydrant spin. Mike Watt presents a very original approach to bass guitar.

Funeral by Arcade Fire. This is my first listen to this one. Maybe it is my age, but I haven't connected with Arcade Fire like those a decade or so younger than me have. Certainly not unlistenable, but I am waiting for them to grab me.
