Finally digging into the 2025 reissue of “Black and Blue” by The Rolling Stones. The Steven Wilson remix of the original 1976 album widens the stereo picture, while the second disc of reworked outtakes and unreleased jams makes this set even more compelling. #vinyl

“It’s a Fast Driving Friday with the Dandy Warhols 30 Seconds” by The Dandy Warhols. 57 tracks spread out over 41 minutes. You wish some of these were fully formed songs. But that’s its charm: each track leaves you wanting more. #vinyl

Happy belated 60th birthday, @caranddriver.bsky.social. I’m old enough to remember your 35th! I still remember my first issue — August 1990. A red BMW 850i was on the cover. Thank you for all the great writing over the years too. And #RIP David E. Davis Jr. and Brock Yates.

Well, well, well. If it isn’t “Live EP” by Led Zeppelin which I “pre-ordered” back in July ahead of its September 12th release date. Here it is on October 14th, more than a month late. Better late than never I guess. #vinyl

Digging in to the new Nine Inch Nails! Can’t say I’m blown away just yet, but the single — “As Alive As You Need Me To Be” — is pretty catchy. It will be interesting to find out how the music ends up being used in the Tron film. #vinyl
