Band Marino - The Sea & The Beast (2006)

It’s $32 Tuesday. Time to rip open another CD from The Red Cross Collection. I started out with Dum Dum Girls 2011 album, “Only In Dreams”, but gave up after a few tracks.

Mark Lanegan - Whiskey For The Holy Ghost (1994)

You can feel the smoke and whiskey blend hit your face as the big gravelly voice of Mark Lanegan oozes out of the speakers.

Zeitgeist Freedom Energy Exchange - Sci-Fi Jazz Directions (2022)

OK, I wasn’t expecting this. Purchased mainly for it’s slightly unhinged cover, and because it was going cheap, I was a bit worried that this would be some weird, inaccessible, electronic squawlk fest.

Mad Monster Party Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (1967)

Black Friday sales bring out the worst in me. I took advantage of sales at JB Hi-fi and Flying Out and bought a few CD box sets I’ve had my eye on.

Poor Moon - Poor Moon (2012)

Another random selection from my “Lucky Strike At The Red Cross” collection. This album on the Sub Pop label, turned out to be a side project by Fleet Foxes members Christian Wargo and Casey Wescott.

Dominick Martin - Shine A Light (2009)

This is the first CD from my recent Richmond Red Cross haul and all I can say is it’s off to a great start.

Music Monday Mania (2022)

Another couple of days with a house full of babies equates to a huge reduction in air moving from my speakers.

Martin's Session - Nov 22

The themes were: a track that connects with another culture (lifestyle, country, ethnic group, political persuasion, gender identity, etc), a track that connects with a personal interest (stamp record collecting, flint knapping, ships in bottles, etc), a track that connects in some way with one or both of the preceding tracks. You can reveal the connection before or after playing the track.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Cool It Down (2022)

A simply stunning comeback record after nearly a decade off grid. Karen O stars again and the 3 piece are as tight as ever.
