#NEW (to me) Music Saturday

Ok we know the trip. Couple of songs I am jamming on this week. I hope you enjoy a few.

Central Illinois spiritual kin…loud, fuzzy, shouty, punky and full of bees. Really enjoying these kids.

Weirdo - Harrison Gordon


Appearently I am the last to know….but holy moly is this a bop.

Good Day - Anderson .Paak, Cordea


This is summer, even tho summer is over…some day Kevin will slip up….but until then keep enjoying the perfect pop gems.

PBJ - Kevin Morby


Some more effortless easy laid back vibe with a dark undercurrent.

To Ease You - Men I Trust


Wasting a Friday night listening to Short Fictions and other standouts from my 2026 playlist I burned to minidisc.

Just hits a little different. #shortfictions #sony #minidisc #music

A portable Sony MiniDisc MZ-505 player is resting on my knee, with a stereo cabinets and a dog bed in the out of focus background.

New Nerd hot off the presses. The only way out of here is to not be here.

Most of the covers are pretty beat up, but the LP’s are in surprisingly good condition. Making for a lovely evening.

Hard to believe it’s been 20 Years since Numero Group released Eccentric Soul: Mighty Mike Lenaburg exploring the funky underside of Pheonix AZ circa 1967-1980. I love that we have creative people out there doing creative things with other groups celebrating it. #funk #soul #numerogroup

Five men are standing in a group, wearing matching patterned shirts and light-colored pants, against a grass background.  NUM011 is printed on the picture.  CD Case which looks like the picture of a vinyl 45 record titled Loaded Back by Michael Liggins and The Super Souls is displayed in a brown paper sleeve inside a clear plastic case labeled Eccentric Soul: Mighty Mike Lenaburg.


some trainspotting from the south side market on Ashland in Chicago. Music: Swearing at Motorists - No More James Dean #trainspotting #swearingatmotorists


Love getting home from a trip to find a record I ordered weeks ago has arrived. Thanks to Bandcamp I was listening to the digital download via Plexamp for my whole trip. This is a lovely refreshing album. #vinyl #swapmeet #winspear #bandcamp #plexamp


20 years ago an awesome SXE band dropped “the Myspace Song”…it still makes me smile.

I know that websites don’t kill but sometimes they will sometimes they will…..break hearts ….internet grass is always greener…

This is a gentle reminder for y’all to STAY POSI The MySpace Song

My son was discussing his 7th grade reading of The Outsiders. I took the opportunity to name today “International NJ Hardcore Day" and introduce him to some Lifetime.

They never get old and may we never age either. #hxc #hardcore #jersey #lifetime #punk #hellobastards


pacing the sun in the ole squareback takes a small amount of faith. But it doesn’t hurt to have the mono blaster singing sweetly with the Twisted Teens - When we first met.


Surprising to no one I really enjoy Mat over at www.youtube.com/@Techmoan
He has a new video about his personal stereo dropping wide soon. I went out and picked up boombox i had many moons ago as well. A JVC PC-X100. It still sounds amazing and at $20 who can argue?

A JVC stereo system with dual cassette decks and two speakers is placed on a wooden shelf.

New Music < to me > Saturday

Stuff tickling my ears…

Sweeping Promises - Shooting Shadows

FeldUp - Cover My Ears

Twisted Teens - When We First Met

Persica 3 - That Life


Having a lovely discussion about music yesterday and was reminded of Killing an Arab and by extension Camus’ The Stranger. Worth a revisit. The only meaning to being human is to be…HUMAN. The rest of the nonsense is window dressing. Be kind and be you.


More fun finds added to the collection this weekend. A funky weird Chet Baker - You can’t go home again. A thoroughly enjoyable Astor Piazolla - Libertango

#vinyl

Three vinyl record albums are displayed on small wooden shelves mounted on a green wall above a turntable.

on the heels of my post yesterday the purveyors of hot fuzz rock, Happy Diving are re-releasing Electric Soul Unity on green vinyl. I had this album on repeat for at least a year!

happydiving.bandcamp.com/album/ele…


couple rock bands i really really like over the last few years. bands when i hear a song i go back and put a full album on.
Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever (or C.F.) - The French Press is as enjoyable now as ever
Deep Sea Diver - Billboard Heart is a triumph
Skeggs - Pick anything and enjoy


Couldn’t resist picking up this little beauty for $20. Put a new belt in but playing too fast. Gonna do some fettling and see if I can get it to the proper speed and then build a new enclosure.

A vintage tabletop stereo system with an AM/FM tuner, multiple control knobs, a 8 track cassette tape player, and several buttons is shown.
