The Limiñanas - The Limiñanas (2010)
Another absolute STUNNER which flew completely under the radar. This debut record from French duo The Limiñanas, is one of the biggest musical surprises I have EVER encountered!

Fogg - High Testament (2014)
A big riffy, completely off-kilter, stoner rock record that sounds as big as Texas. That’s funny, coz these dudes hail from Fort Worth, Texas.

Belly - Bees (2021)
Awesome B-Sides collection on spectacular “honey” coloured vinyl. Just fantastic to have this. One of my favourite songs of all time on one of my favourite albums of all time, is the wonderful “Not Too Soon”, sung by Tanya Donelly on “The Real Ramona”.

Solange - A Seat At The Table (2016)
I really needed a vinyl fix today. It’s been a few weeks since I’ve done any digging. I rang the Smithies hotline (Facebook Messenger actually) and arranged to meet.

ESG - Come Away With (1983)
Stonkingly brilliant, early-80s, post-punk funk (without the horns) courtesy of the Scroggin Sisters from the Bronx, NY, NY. This is just crazy good.

HTRK - Venus In Leo (2019)
One of my finds of the year, I knew absolutely nothing about HTRK (Hate Rock) or this record, prior to my recent travels to Melbourne.

The Rolling Stones - Exile On Main Street (1972)
RIP Charles Robert Watts An easy choice today. I bought this quite a few years ago when I started collecting “essential” vinyl once again.

Protomartyr - The Agent Intellect (2015)
This band is from Detroit. These men are not happy. Front man Joe Casey, led by an incendiary band, sings/talks his way through 12 astounding tracks.

Black Mountain - IV (2016)
Another terrific record, their forth, in a faultless catalogue of neo-70’s rock/prog. While they certainly know how to jam, they never overstay their welcome.

The Phoenix Foundation - Give Up Your Dreams (2015)
In recognition of brilliant Kiwi musicians I’m celebrating with some Wellington heavy weights today. Let’s face it - we need to go to all of those touring NZ artists touring at the moment - for their and for our own sakes.
