Radiohead - Kid A

I remember this coming out in my late teens. It blew me away. I think I listened to the CD nonstop for weeks.

For some time, Kid A was only available as a 10-inch (like this one). It has since come out as a standard 12-inch.

Threw on a record I hadn't heard in a while.

The John Coltrane Quartet - Africa/Brass

The cover is a little worse for wear, but the record is in pretty decent shape. Picked this up many years ago at Dusty Groove here in Chicago.

Surfing with the alien after a busy day.

Joe Satriani - Surfing With The Alien

I believe Satch Boogie, the last song on side A, was a playable song on one of the Guitar Heroes. I vaguely remember hating it 😆

Some Sunday evening psych.

Strawberry Alarm Clock - Wake Up...It's Tomorrow

Their first album, and hit single, Insence & Peppermints, gets all the attention. But, I would argue this is at least just as good and gets little recognition outside of psych heads.
