Let’s Play Records!

At random I will record hour long vinyl mixtapes. These are the results.

Let’s Play Records! Volume 5 – Soundtracks

I have a chunk of soundtracks. For some stupid reason I have 3 Flashdances, American Gigalos and Star Wars. Not sure Why. For this volume of Let's Play Records! I decided to grab all my soundtracks, chose the ones with Original Scores (just pulling from the OSTs that are compilations of songs will probably be volume 6) and then starting from there. Its a little dark and synthy with some disco/funk in the middle. Enjoy!. Zombie Attacks in the Eighties - Paranorman Main Title - Sorcerer Ghost Story - The Fog Leapord Tree Dream - Cat People Istanbul Opening - Midnight Express Run Program: Sentionauts - Beyond The Black Rainbow…

Mix of Songs from My Childhood (Let’s Play Records! 4)

I've been slowly acquiring record versions of tapes my mom had when I was growing up, the plan being to make a mix of some of the songs from my childhood. Most are from the albums, some are songs I remember on the radio. I will be expanding on this post with comments for each track. Enjoy! 1. Kris Krisofferson - "Watch Closely Now" - A Star is Born OST 2. Barbara Mandrell - "Sleeping Single in a Double Bed" - The Best of Barbara Mandrell 3. Suzy Quattro & Chris Norman - "Stumblin' In" - If You Knew Suzy... 4. Bee Gees - "How Deep is Your Love" -…

Let’s Play Records! Volume 3

The first 2 volumes of LPR! were somewhat premeditated. I grabbed all the records first and kind of got them in order. This time I just grabbed the first record (Whipped Cream and other Delights by Herb Alpert), picked the song (initially "A Taste of Honey" but it skipped so I flipped the disk over and chose "Love Potion No. 9"), then kept going. So enjoy the swing, rockabilly, country, mixed with a tiny dash of new wave or punk. (more…)

Lets Play Records! Volume 2

Vikki Car - The First Time Billy Ocean - Suddenly Milly Vanilli - Blame it on the Rain Jody Watley - Don't You Want Me DeBarge - Rhythm of the Night Prince and the Revolution - New Position Ready for the World - Oh Sheila Sheena Easton - Sugar Walls (Red Mix) Sheila E - Love Bizzare De La Soul - Keeping the Faith George Michael - Father Figure Keith Sweat - I Want Her Bobby Brown -…

Let’s Play Records!

Ok, so here is an idea I came up with for a weekly (I'll try) post. I will play records from my collection for an hour and record and post it. There may be a theme, there may not. It will be whatever I decide to play. All vinyl for about an hour. Here is my first attempt, enjoy! Tangerine Dream - Guido the Killer Pimp - Risky Business OST Gary Numan - Cars - The Pleasure Principal Andre Previn - Executive Party Dance - Rollerball OST Yello - Vicious Games - Stella Ultravox - Western Promise/Vienna - Vienna Jon and Vangelis - Back to School - The Friends of…
