Episode seventy-four is up now! Today's song is First Day Of My Life by Bright Eyes.
I discuss the bare-hearted emotional lyrics, and wht the music video always makes me weep.

#NowListening to #ImWideAwakeItsMorning by #BrightEyes, the fourth offering included in this week’s #VinylMePlease bundle.
This is an album that I know well & love. I’ve other pressings with which to compare (incl. the 2005 #BernieGrundman cut). To my ears, the #VMP wins out: more dynamic with greater depth. The 2005 cut always struck me as a little flat.
The album itself is a modern classic imo - #FirstDayOfMyLife & #Lua are both stunningly good.
