The new reissue of "Talk is Cheap".

Something nice about being young is all of the albums I discover that I had never heard before.

Today it's The Gap Band IV (1982). Outstanding came up on Spotify shuffle which led me to checking out the record. 

Really digging it. It pulls from a lot of 70s funk but has that 80s sheen and sounds super crisp and mature. Mixing has become such a lost art and it's a shame. Bit of 80s cheese - especially on the second track - but not super off-putting.

Produced by Lonnie Simmons who's only real claim to fame is the work he did with The Gap Band. He was out of music by the 90s, and actually passed away just a couple months ago. Always interesting to read about those guys that were super, super talented but just didn't have the breaks fall for them the way they did for others.

I'm not sure why Spotify never recommended Mocean Worker before today but I'm hooked.

Great song. Up there with INXS "Don't Change"

Music on my phone is on shuffle.   Every Day is Like Sunday by Morrisey just popped on.  What a great freaking song.

SIAP..... In new song...... "Band drives couple, played by Martin Starr and Milana Vayntrub, to break up in new clip.". 

Hot Chip provide the very literal soundtrack for a couple’s breakup in the video for their new song “Hungry Child,” off their upcoming album, A Bath Full of Ecstasy, out June 21st.

Directed by Saman Kesh, the clip gleefully shatters the most basic suspension of disbelief required for music videos — that the song can’t be heard by anyone in the video. Martin Starr and Milana Vayntrub play a couple who can’t get along and when another fight breaks out, their ears are suddenly filled with the relentless thump of Hot Chip’s “Hungry Child.”

thanks for mentioning that, it's probably their best instead of the overplayed "what you need" (which is still good). 

I've played this dozens of times since re-discovering it

the crisp clear booming voice with so much range and youthful raw hungry intensity. One of the best vocal productions of the 80s bar none.  RIP Hutchens we lost a treasure.

Perusing the Levitation line up and found a band called Stonefield...4 sisters from a small Aussie town playing psychedelic stoner metal. Good stuff.

The look she is gives at 2:27 makes this video for me.

Heilung. This is not for everyone but I find it rewarding if you put some time into it.
