The Listening Club - 18th July 2021

Greetings folks,

Hope you're all doing okay. Lovely weather-wise here in Amsterdam, sunny and warm-not-boiling, which is prime stooping weather, as far as I'm concerned. Also good to note that after last week's virus panic, the numbers have levelled off... not going back down yet, but at least not going up any more, which is a relief. 

Reminder that despite all things covid related, I'm still going to be "off" for two Sundays in August (8th & 15th), so I'm looking for someone to mind this fort while I'm gone - let me know if you can help out, thanks!

And another reminder that next week will be a vortex week, this time it has been decided we'll be having a #RelationshipAdviceVortex, which will be helmed by @JimMcCauley. So please get a couple of fine slices of wisdom ready, and tune drop details will appear on twitter some time this week.

Last Sunday, chez #LC, we had @faberfedor laying down the boogie in the shape of Little Charlie and the Nightcats, "Captured Live", which got the assembled swaying so it seems. Thanks to Faber for the pick, and for sailing the frisb over to @EastVanHalen, who's here with tonight's intro...

"This “collaboration” was basically Tchad Blake and Mitchell Froom pulling every trick in the book to salvage great home recordings [artist redacted] had made on a badly misaligned four track in his kitchen in the middle of the night.

The album sounds like a unmarked cassette tape you’d find in the dirt by the side of the road in the desert. Pop it in, see what’s on it."
