AC/DC Back in Black

16 May

There are lots of good AC/DC records, including most of the Bon Scott output. But no album is bigger and badder than 1980′s Back in Black. Crank up your stereo, drop the needle on side one track one, listen to a couple crackles and then when the open riff kicks in: “baaah … baa-na-na-na … baa-na-na-na” … you’ll know immediately what’s so great about a good hard rocking tune on vinyl!

Jingly Jangly Joy with the Lemonheads – It’s a Shame About Ray

14 May

I was in college when this record came out and played it to death. It’s one of those super-short perfect rock albums. Evan Dando and whoever was playing with him at the time were on the cusp of becoming superstars … it never quite happenend, but at least he put out this masterpiece. Juliana Hatfield plays and sings on most of the tracks which is probably what takes this from being a good record to a great record. Tons of good tracks “It’s a Shame About Ray”, “Confetti”, “Allison’s Starting to Happen”, “My Drug Buddy”, “Kitchen” as well as the Simon and Garfunkel cover Mrs. Robinson (which I can take or leave). Must own record.

Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon

13 May

Okay, DSOTM is so popular and well-known, it’s almost a cliche. But it’s popularity is no fluke. It’s a perfect album. And it’s all the better on vinyl. No record collection is close to complete without it!

Yo La Tengo “I Can Hear the Heart Beating as One”

11 May

Yo La Tengo has been a critics’ favorites for years and years and years now. They’ve got tons and tons of great records, but none as accessible and well-knows as their 1997 masterpiece “I Can Hear the Heart Beating as One”. In 2009 it was re-released as a double LP 180 gram HQ LP. My personal favourite tracks are “Autumn Sweater” and “Stockholm Syndrome”, but the whole record is just spectacular. This is a record embraces by scores of music fans and critics; marketed a little better this album could have been a multi-platinum hit with an even wider audience.

R.E.M. Murmur – Must-Own Vinyl

10 May

R.E.M. produced many excellent records over the years. But I like none better than their jingly jangly debut Murmur. On the surface, it seems like they’re breaking no new rock/pop ground, but there’s just something great about them on this album that never grows old on repeated listens.

This record is a must-own on vinyl. There’s just something beyond words about this one.
