What group is that and what do they sound like?

So far there are two rules for buying gospel records. No Leisure Suits on the cover and only two Cookes. (Means almost everything after 1972 is not that interesting)

The Dust-to-Digital Foundation and the University of California, Santa Barbara have partnered to make thousands of historic recordings freely accessible to the public.

Some electronic music from outer space - great weird lil label! doomchakratapes.bandcamp.com/album/roman-...

A bit late because I can't keep up with the solo guitar stuff, but this came out earlier in the year and it's so good. jakubsimansky.bandcamp.com/album/what-d...

I don't fully understand this, but Patrick Feaster used AI to create images with music encoded in them. Aphex Twin had this gimmick where his image appeared in the spectrogram of one of his songs, but it was just some noise. This works well. griffonagedotcom.wordpress.com/2025/09/06/1...

Interesting write-up about The Phipps Family - who got known as Carter Family sound-a-likes. davidbramsey.substack.com/p/right-down...

Outsider artist Vojtech Kopic's rock gallery in Kacanovy, CZ. He was a farmer, self-taught musician and sculptor and over the span of more than 30 years he created over 50 scenes and inscriptions into the rocks behind his farm.

Went into the weeds with @foxydigitalis.bsky.social. Really good convo here talkin’ about melody and sound. foxydigitalis.zone/2025/10/06/z...

Acetate Of The Day! Bessie M. Gross - On A Mountain High Country gospel song about the rapture. Hear it at the link: dollarcountry.org/exhibits/sho... #acetateoftheday #dollarcountryacetateproject

I love that I still love Zach’s music. There's some music that just stays.

Connected all the dots for the “Final boss gospel group” The Ritchie & Shepherd Gospel Singers from Indiana. Thanks to Frank the Drifter of @dollarcountry.org for sharing the audio transfer to their “Most Requested Songs." All I was able to find out about them here: folk-visions.com/music/the-ri...

Here is a good review by Holger Adam about the album and its influences: skug.at/moeckl-beck-...

The US has a distinctive sound in solo acoustic steel-string guitar (much derives from "Sunflower River Blues"). European guitar duos have developed a distinctive sound as well: Kolbe/Illenberger, Le Masne/Porquet, Simansky/Niesner and these two: alexandermoeckl.bandcamp.com/album/ins-en...

Announcing a new album today. I call it LOVE’S WORK. My first fully instrumental record. To be released 10/3/25. Pre-order Vinyl/Digital for Bandcamp Friday. 🎶 zacharycale.bandcamp.com/album/loves-...

Samstagnacht Discozeit - not for me. I think I heard this track on WFMU 17 years ago. Just found it on my HD. All Sugalo releases are on Youtube and are a fun listen. German 80s Minimal Synth Wave Pop. Discodiscodiscodiscodiscodisco yeah.

This is also currently available as Open Access on JSTOR: www.jstor.org/stable/jj.20...

I got an archival scanner made for digitizing books and it has made me feel so happy. I've been wanting a standardized way to take pictures of my records for YEARS. (chip clip not included) Read the thread if you want the inside baseball as to why I wanted one of these.

Just found out the bandcamp player implementation on the DFBM website is kaputt. I was one of the first (and of the few?) who got an API key and was able to access the raw bc data and build my own player instead of the embedded brick that others had to use. Anyway. Good times... 12+ years ago.

Sad that I have to use a VPN[1] to open the @styleweekly.com ‬ website. Oh, well. Nice article, nonetheless. [1] or @archive.org for that matter web.archive.org/web/20250615...

Lovely write up! A great record music, artwork and all.

Seven Pines (the track and album) by @danielbachman.bsky.social is a masterpiece. Also, I love the new post punk cover artwork and title. danielbachman.bandcamp.com/track/seven-...

Great cover artwork!

Country Gospel by The Shaggs thelost-dogs.bandcamp.com/album/countr...

Sooner or later things show up. Finally got a copy of Dwayne and Melba Miller’s country gospel album (digital only but it’s about the music). Unique upbeat country gospel from Arkansas with a fantastic album cover that record collectors will spend a lot of money on.

Three chords and the Holy Ghost.

Mail from France: American steel string solo guitar from France. A beautifully designed, printed and handstitched CD cover incl. a comic strip. searchingronaldcraft.bandcamp.com/album/search...

Found this great album, holy freak…

Southern country gospel from Canada.

Very private and tragic, private press family gospel album. I've seen this album being sold for 500 USD, I don't know why it has this high price tag, but someone paid that much. Thanks to @dollarcountry.org for making it available digitally: dollarcountry.org/items/show/2...

South Carolina gospel duo on their own Emanuel Records label. A nice album with some killer tracks and some fillers. The phaser effect on the guitar adds a unique touch to the whole album. www.youtube.com/watch?v=paoy...

Thanks to a friend I got the chance to transfer this album to mp3. I think it’s quite rare. If you want a zip, let me know.

Thanks @zacavis.bsky.social it arrived today. Great print!

Just put some great bluegrass records with audio up on the database. Check it out here: blog.dollarcountry.org/2025/04/27/n...
