#VinylSky #FridaySpins Kronos Quartet White Man Sleeps (1987, Nonesuch) The stuffy, powdered wig classical establishment resents this group for success achieved outside the conventional boundaries. No need to fight it. The path forward is forward.

#VinylSky #FridaySpins Frank Zappa Lumpy Gravy (1968, Verve) The 1st non-Mothers album, in fact FZ doesn't play on it himself (contractual dodge.) His role was simply composer, arranger, conductor, producer, engineer, tape editor... Among the greatest albums of the 60s.

#VinylSky #FridaySpins The db's I Thought You Wanted To Know 1978-1981 (2021, Propeller) Killer retrospective of an amazing American band that burrowed under the radar during their heyday.

#VinylSky #FridaySpins #HBD #StephenStills Stephen Stills Manassas (1972, Atlantic) 80 years of age today. Not bad. For my money the Manassas debut was the best album he was involved with. A certified gold double album with no hit singles. Not bad.

#VinylSky #FridaySpins Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 Herb Alpert Presents... (1966, A&M) I've been thinking about this LP since SM died in September. A terrific album. Herb definitely produced a Hollywood version of Bossa Nova. Still thoroughly enjoyable, and a much needed hit record for A&M.

Grooves In Orbit (1983, Bearsville)

They simply don't have a bad album. Every single one is super cool and wonderful. The LP has a locked groove on the end of a?... hillbilly giggle? Great!
