Romanticos De Cuba No Cinema
Obscure here in this part of the world, this is a Brazilian orchestra that specialized in Cuban music. Not challenging, but sweet. #romanticosdecuba #freerecords #freelibrary #recordexchange #vinyl

Dick Hyman, Solo Piano. I keep having Dick Hyman records here in the exchange, and I keep saying the same thing: he may not be cool, but he sure is talented, and this record plays beautifully. #dickhyman #freerecords #freelibrary #recordexchange #vinyl

Lamont Cranston Band, Shakedown.
Minnesota blues stalwarts who have played with everyone. They probably played at one of the big spring concerts at my college, but my memories of those are predictably fuzzy. #lamontcranstonband #freerecords #freelibrary #recordexchange #vinyl

The Best of Donovan.
Crazy to think that the often-forgotten Donovan has entire albums of his that don't include the big ones everyone knows.

Dion, Kingdom In The Streets.
He might have lost some cred over the years, but you can't deny the guy's songwriting talent and the beauty of his voice.

Bette Midler, Divine Madness.
Did you know that she was among the artists (like Dylan and Doug Sahm) who contributed lyrics to Dr. John's "Right Place, Wrong Time"? Fun to think about which couplet(s) each of them might be responsible for...

Riverside Dixieland Sampler. Not sure that there's a lot of call for Dixieland, but a Riverside sampler is always gonna be worth hearing. And that Joe Sullivan record is not Dixieland, but it is fantastic. #dixieland #freerecords #freelibrary #recordexchange #vinyl

The cool thing about best-of records is that they force you to remember hits you took for granted. I didn't think I liked Donovan much beyond "I Love My Shirt." But dang: "Wear Your Love Like Heaven"? "Season of the Witch"? Hits for a reason. #donovan #freelibrary #freerecords #recordexchange #vinyl

Some things, like this presumably seen-on-TV-during-reruns compilation of country songs, poorly packaged in set of four remarkably-good-condition records, just call out for appreciation, despite, or because of, their very terribleness. #freelibrary #freerecords #recordexchange #vinyl
