🎧 Album of the Day 201 Linda Perhacs - Parallelograms Greatest Albums of all Time #1757 As soft as spring rain falling in a shadowed canyon, breeze dripping with jasmine & lavender. A little bit Joni, a little Suzanne Ciani. open.spotify.com/album/53cxrg... #albumoftheday #musicsky #losangeles

If you're of a certain age, THE SECRET OF NIMH was your introduction to cosmic horror. The Great Owl was utterly indifferent. He could've killed Mrs. Brisby in a second but *he couldn't be bothered*. That is what the universe is. The great swallowing thing that devours us all and does not care.

🎧 Album of the Day 200 King Crimson - Red Best Albums of all Time #141 Genuinely impressed Red makes the list of Best Albums of all Time. A knotty sprawling weird-ass album that sounds like some folk field recordings as much as 70s Prog. open.spotify.com/album/4mA3RK... #albumoftheday #musicsky

🎧 Album of the Day 199 Charlie Mariano and his Jazz Group - s/t Here's an interesting anomaly. Not only is it the first full cool jazz album, it's also one of the rare East Coast appearances of the genre. open.spotify.com/album/54jSd6... #albumoftheday #musicsky #cooljazz

🎧 Album of the Day 198 Pixie - Doolittle Best of the 80s 5/1000 Greatest Albums of all Time #19 Might be the greatest noise pop album ever. I'm convinced it contains Qaballistic truths in its serrated nautical Western twang. open.spotify.com/album/0DQyTV... #albumoftheday #musicsky #indierock

🎧 Album of the Day 197 Aphex Twin - Richard D. James Album Greatest Albums of all Time #793 Hadn't heard this one in a long time. Refreshingly playful, weird, and surreal - a relic from a time when rave was for weirdos. open.spotify.com/album/77Lae5... #albumoftheday #musicsky #electronicmusic
