What Albums Are You Listening To Right Now?

I gave the following albums a spin this week:


Steely Dan -- Aja (one of the finest rock albums ever, in memory of Walter Becker)

Van Hunt -- Popular (were it only released earlier . . . solid, creative piece of work)

Me'Shell NdegeOcello -- Comet, Come To Me (didn't grab me when it first came out, enjoyed it better after years between spins)

You?

Good night, sweet Prince | 7 June 1958 - 21 April 2016

It seems I'm more often than not stuck in the 80s
Although at this very moment...I've entered the 90s
Listening to Whitney's album "I'm Your Baby Tonight"

I'm definitely stuck in the 80s and I feel no need to move into the 90s. Imo, 90s music didnt hold up as well. It actually sounds more dated, to me.

Dornik debut album.
I just discovered it and it's out of this world amazing, no hype.
I found out later he was Jessie Wares former drummer and its makes sense because the beats and rythym sections are on point.
Melodies strong too. Every song is killer.
His voice and tone has inflections of a certain legendary artist.


Chain Smoke

Elton John - a lot of it

.

.

.

A lot of these album tracks and the whole album of Elton John (1970) just sustained brilliance. The two videos are from Goodbye Yellow Brick Road (1973) and 2 Low 4 Zero (1983) as opening tracks they give you some idea of how good his opening tracks always were.

One of the greatest hip-hop duos of all time. Mecca winds up filling my summer playlists, and Ingredient fills my fall playlists.

I've recently rediscovered the A Tribe Called Quest back catalog thanks to the great sound of the streaming albums on Amazon Prime music player. My CD rips had lower volume and these remasters sound amazing!

Its a fantastic album! I was lucky enough to secure the bonus tracks (Enjoy The Silence, Never Still Water, and Who Wears The Crown) along with non-album track Harvey. Shame this stuff is obscure but kinda fun for those who have found it. Never Still Water was later released on "Buy This Fracking Album".
