Eric Dolphy - Out to Lunch!
The Kinks - Sleepwalker
Thelonious Monk - Monk's Blues
The Mothers of Invention - Uncle Meat, Burnt Weeny Sandwich, and Weasels Ripped My Flesh
Small Faces - Ogdens' Nut Gone Flake
Sun Ra - Cosmic Tones / Art Forms
T. Rex - Electric Warrior
XTC - Mummer, The Big Express, Nonsuch
Neil Young - After the Gold Rush

I later realized that some of these albums sort of reference each other, with Eric Dolphy's "Hat and Beard" referencing Thelonious Monk, and Frank Zappa's "Eric Dolphy Memorial Barbecue" referencing (of course) Eric Dolphy.

The Zappa records all pretty much reference each other, too, as Zappa albums are wont to do.

Small Faces - Ogdens' Nut Gone Flake
 

Ian McLagan sat in the seat next to me  on my economy flight to LA a couple weeks ago.

Not going for the easy Zappa albums there!

[Gabo]

I was gonna buy Nirvana - Incesticide for $5 today but didn't... I have enough music in my life right now

[Please delete my account]

I've never heard the first two songs on there, are they good?

It's more fun that way.
I've been playing Uncle Meat non-stop since yesterday. It's so dense, but something has grabbed hold of me.

I've been playing Uncle Meat non-stop since yesterday. It's so dense, but something has grabbed hold of me.

I think it's one of the 10 or 15 best albums of the 60s, and among FZ's greatest works.

[Mike's Beard]

Frank packed more ideas into Meat, Weasles and Weenie then many cover in their whole career.

I finally got POB on CD today! Been looking for it for so long and I finally found it. It was $15 but it was worth it.

Id say they are decent but probably only essential for big J.R fans. I'm quite new to a lot of the J.R solo stuff so no expert. He really needs his own thread in these parts.

[Mike's Beard]

Had a splurge;

Bee Gees - Tales From the Brothers Gibb
Nina Hagan - Nunsexmonkrock
David Bowie  - Young Americans
Lene Lovich - March
Anthony Newley - The Roar of the Greasepaint, the Smell of the Crowd.

Ordered this last night.  I got the Deluxe CD version, but it also comes in vinyl.  Both come with a download card with a bonus:  20 live tracks from 1975 (1 from 1984) and a 1974 interview.  Also got Real Gone's Aereo-Plain/Morning Bugle John Hartford CD.

[the captain]

Luluc, Passerby. (Wrote about it a little in the new releases thread.)

[Mike's Beard]

More splurging;
Dr. John -  Gris-Gris
The Bangles - Different Light
Public Image Ltd. - The Flowers of Romance.

Dr. John -  Gris-Gris

This is a very cool record.

Yesterday's Rekord Trek

[danieljack]

I just got these!

A record: MOTT THE HOOPLE - Mott

And a U2 concert on VHS! "Under a blood red sky" (June 5th 1983 -- Denver Colorado)

I went to a record store I've never been to before out in the 'burbs on Saturday - Hip Cat Records in Wilmette. Pretty nice place, with good prices, especially for the NM to VG+ condition everything was in. Had a ton of Beach Boys stuff, the owner said he just acquired someone's complete collection, so I picked up what I didn't already have out of it (Original mono issues of Shut Down Vol. 2 and All Summer Long). I also got a handful of promo 45s and some Dr. John LPs, because I want to start exploring more NOLA music.
