What's your favourite LP?
Big Star Radio City And while you're at it listen to all their albums (there's only 3...I don't count the 90s album) #1 Record is superior in a lot of ways and is phenomenal in it's own right. Third is an artistic expression that is its own animal. Beautiful and brilliant in the most unconventional ways.
From back then? The Lonesome Jubilee by John Cougar Mellencamp.
These days I just use Apple Music. Costs less than Spotify, pays artists more, and doesn’t finance the alt right. (Well except for that dumb participation trophy Tim Cook gave Trump.) Anyway, I pay for music because I love music, and I neither smoke nor drink, so it’s like, my vice, I suppose. That and coffee.
Anyway, I have access to all the music I had back then and since on the ~~handheld Mac~~ phone I carry in my pocket.
Not a LP per sé, but
Killer Moses – Unseen EP
For album art (by H.R. Gieger), Emerson Lake and Palmer's Brain Salad Surgery. An almost monochrome skull folded out to reveal a monochrome woman, it included notes, band pics, and even the LP label had art.
More complete details can be seen in these seller posts:
V-3's "Hit Dead Center With My Disease", which is actually a trilogy. It was released only 3 years ago, but the music is mostly from the late 80s or so.
On top of that, I have a Live LP by Nirvana, I quite like it, too.
