Good morning vinyl Tuesday!
Today in heavy rotation on my record player: Bart Davenport "Episodes".
A great variety of very nice tunes from (Chamber)Pop to Folk with a little bite of psychedelic influence (Greetings from this band called "the Beatles" 😉).
Release is on "Tapete Records" - an eclectic little label from Hamburg that I strongly recommend to you. Check it out!

DE-PLATFORMING MUSIC CONSUMPTION

Streaming music sucks, but it’s also so convenient and ubiquitous. Having access to music streaming means that any song I want from any era is constantly available.

It is not very clear to me what they are talking about.

Are these counterfeit original records, or are they unofficial records?

There is a difference between them, and unofficial records are sold by big distributors!
