Sensory Dispensary

“The record you didn’t know you needed is what I am listening to in the other room.”

AI_IMAGE: A dimly lit vintage record store back room, shot at eye level across wooden bins overflowing with vinyl LPs. Warm amber light from a single hanging bulb casts deep shadows. Faded concert posters line the dark walls. Wisps of incense smoke curl through the golden light. The mood is intimate, analog, and deeply atmospheric with rich sepia and brown tones against near-black shadows. | photorealistic | landscape

Blackest Day – Joanne Shaw Taylor

“Blackest Day”
Joanne Shaw Taylor
FROM White Sugar (2009)
This album was in regular rotation back in 2010-2011 before it went quiet in May of 2013. My WSMB radio project re-surfaced it the other day, and I gotta say it’s good to have this one back again. She’s the real deal.

Discovered by Dave Stewart (Eurythmics) at 16, she has some serious cred and major chops. Looks like I’ve missed a few albums over the last 13 years, I guess I have some catching up to do.
