I was all set to post my usual Jimmy Smith closer and call it a night, but this. This is box office stuff. U.S.A..U.S.A...etc... #Thursdayvinyl #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky #NowPlaying #AmericanGraffiti #Musk #Trump

If ever there was a moment to post that Michael Jackson eating popcorn meme, it's now. Don't though.

There are certain styles that go hand in glove with the seasons and, as the light nights approach their zenith, I try and cram in as much #Bossa as I can. Here's one of the progenitors of the '62 US Bossa craze. #Thursdayvinyl #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky #NowPlaying #StanGetz #CharlieByrd #Jazz

Speaking of ace sticks-men, Ahmed Gallab (aka Sinkane) was the live drummer for #Caribou when I saw Dan Snaith & Co tour this LP at a legendary gig at Leeds Brudenell in 2007. One that lives long in the memory, it easily makes my top 5 all timers. #Thursdayvinyl #Vinylcommunity #Vinylsky

I first heard Dungen offshoot #TheAmazing in 2010 shortly after the release of this, their second outing. I was instantly hooked on its folky-psych-shuffle groove, thanks in no small part to the jazz chops of drummer Moussa Fadera. #Thursdayvinyl #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky #NowPlaying

I was hoping the new LP from #Pulp would arrive a day early but no dice. Never mind, I'll save it for next week. Instead, here's 1994's "His 'n' Hers". This record is indelibly tied to that Summer and is a massive evocation of 20/21 year old me. #Thursdayvinyl #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky #NowPlaying

No #Fridayvinyl this week as I'm off to see the stage show "Something About Lennon" with the ol' bread-knife tomorrow evening. So once again, we have some #Thursdayvinyl. Appropriately, we begin with this. #Vinylcommunity #Vinylsky #NowPlaying #JohnLennon

Time to hit the hay, but room for one more. You can listen to some albums at any time of day, but this requires, nay, demands, the sweet spot of the witching hour and a stiff one. (Fnarr). Have a great week, go canny.x #DonaldFagen #Vinylcommunity #Vinylsky #Nowplaying #NowSpinning

Moondog leads me to #PrefabSprout and 1990's "Jordan:The Comeback". Just one of the most underrated albums ever in my book. It's Paddy at the top of his game. (I'm aware "Moondog" is about Presley and has no connection to Moondog himself btw). #Vinylcommunity #Vinylsky #Nowplaying #NowSpinning

Another ace @stuartmaconie.bsky.social #Freakzone this week, the Espen Berg track in particular was beautiful. Some post listening then. The Viking of Sixth Avenue and the 1969 s/t LP which brought him to a wider audience. A true one-off. #Vinylcommunity #Vinylsky #NowPlaying #NowSpinning #Moondog

Pre @stuartmaconie.bsky.social #Freakzone listening this week is #Radiophonic genius and #KPM royalty, #PaddyKingsland and his 1974 LP "Supercharged!". If I could have my own personal theme tune, it would be "The Earthmen" featured here. #Vinylcommunity #Vinylsky #NowPlaying #Nowspinning

Once again, #TheIncredibleJimmySmith closes proceedings. This week, our Hammond Hercules is found on Blue Note in '59 and his cut featuring two live performances "The Sermon!".

Hearing Louis Allen Rawls' baritone is one of my earliest musical memories. I can distinctly recall his '76 smash "You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine" playing out at my local Odeon on my first ever cinema visit at age 4. (Pete's Dragon). #Fridayvinyl #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky #LouRawls

Carrying on the Teenage Fanclub connection. Next up is their biggest influence. #BigStar and their second LP, '73's "Radio City". "I'm In Love With A Girl" vies for top spot in my favourite songs ever list. 1m 45s, just Alex and his guitar. Drop dead gorgeous. #Fridayvinyl #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky

I'm staying in Glasgow for my next pick. After The Vaselines dissolved and Inspired by the Fannies early gigs, Eugene Kelly formed Captain America. Marvel came knocking and after a quick name change to #Eugenius, he released this, their ace debut, in '92. #Fridayvinyl #Vinylcommunity #Vinylsky

#Fridayvinyl time! Here's an LP that turned 30 years old yesterday. When lead single "Sparky's Dream" was released the week previously, we knew we were in for something special. This went on to soundtrack that glorious summer (the third warmest on record). #Vinylcommunity #Vinylsky #TeenageFanclub

..and all roads lead back to #TheBeatles Rubber Soul inspired Wilson to forge forward and create his next studio album (discounting the knocked off covers effort "Party!") "Pet Sounds". Well. That's been a thoroughly enjoyable couple of hours. Ta ta! #Vinylcommunity #Vinylsky #Nowplaying

It's well known that Karen was a superb drummer, however the legend that is #HalBlaine was behind the kit for many of their studio recordings. Here he is as part of the wrecking crew on the record that truly began to confirm Brian Wilson's genius. #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky #NowPlaying #TheBeachBoys

Might as well carry on with this six degrees of separation lark...Williams famously wrote some of #TheCarpenters biggest hits. As it's currently a rainy day and a Monday, this is proving irresistible. Perfect pop performed immaculately. #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky #NowPlaying

#PaulWilliams shares similarities and sensibilities with Nilsson and indeed, wrote a short tribute to Harry on his '74 LP "Here Comes Inspiration". Here he is with his short lived band #TheHolyMackerel and their debut, and only release from 1968. #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky #NowPlaying

The appearance of Nilsson's "Cuddly Toy" on my previous pick has influenced my next choice. His fourth, 1969's "Harry" is a mish mash of styles and contains one of my favourite fabs covers in the shape of McCartney's "Mother Nature's Son". #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky #NowPlaying #HarryNilsson

'er indoors is watching some Netflix bobbins so I've repaired next door to the fortress of solitude for a spot of wax spinning. First up, I'm in a classic pop mood and I have a hankering for a bit of the prefab four. #Vinylcommunity #Vinylsky #NowPlaying #TheMonkees

Time to bid you adieu, and who better than "The Man With Four Hands" to wave us off? Have a great week, smile on your brother.x #OscarPeterson #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky #Jazz

As it's a bank holiday tomorrow, we can sneak a few more drams in and another disc or two. When you're struggling to decide what to listen to, always reach for Stevie and any one of those five perfect LP's from '72-'76. They'll never let you down. #VinylCommunity #Vinylsky #StevieWonder

Some post @stuartmaconie.bsky.social #Freakzone listening..I know I bang on every week, but it's just the best of radio. Over the past 20 years or so it has introduced me to music I would never have otherwise discovered. This haunting LP is one example of many. #Zarelli #Vinylrecords #Vinylsky

Some pre @stuartmaconie.bsky.social #Freakzone listening then. This weeks featured album is #ToddRundgren with 1975's "Initiation" so I'm plumping for his former group #Runt (essentially Todd on his, err..todd) and their 1970 debut to set the scene. #Vinylcommunity #Vinylsky

Time, once again, for #TheIncredibleJimmySmith to wave us off. This week we find our organ grinder in 1970 with "Groove Drops". See you all in 7 for some more #Fridayvinyl 'til then, stay safe, stay loose and stay lovely.x. #Vinylcommunity #Vinylsky #Jazz #Jazzsky
