A great week in the Hudson Compound - a combo of new releases, record store day finds, and a few old faves. And I FINALLY got to hear the new High on Stress and Sleevens new records!

Rant-a-Bit by Scott Hudson: The Ledge #714: New Releases Pt. 1 scotthudson.blogspot.com/2026/05/the-...

This week the Hudson Compound continues to make its way through the #RSD selections, plus quite a few recent faves. Plus a deep dive into The Saints after reading part 4 of the Ed Kuepper interview in #UglyThings!

If I am to believe Reddit (which I don't) resellers are to blame for each and every person who didn't find what they wanted on Record Store Day. That's nonsense.

This week in the Hudson Compound I primarily focused on listening to nothing but old faves from the past, but inevitably a couple of new releases snuck in. Plus I'm getting through today's #RSD releases!

The Hudson Compound is back to its usual mix of new releases and old faves. BTW, that gladie album is amazing! As is the new Bevis Fond.

After a couple of weeks devoted to compilations and Dylan, this week I devoted myself to nothing but new releases. And there's some great stuff that's come out in recent weeks!

Slept in my Replacements shirt and woke up Unsatisfied.

This week the Hudson Compound listened to nothing but those great box set compilations put out by Cherry Red/Grapefruit Records. Unfortunately, too many of the covers just don't upload for whatever reason. But what a great, varied week!

Rant-a-Bit by Scott Hudson: The Ledge #710: First Quarter Recap scotthudson.blogspot.com/2026/03/the-...

Given that I'm going to see Bob Dylan tomorrow night, the Hudson Compound focused on the 21st century Dylan albums that are likely to be highlighted at the show. Plus some great new releases (Friends of Cesar Romero, Twisted Teens, etc.) and a little tribute to Alex Chilton.

This week in the Hudson Compound included quite a few new releases I decided to check out. Also, a breakfast conversation had me do a deep dive into the excellent Die Toten Hosen covers records. And, of course, I had to listen to the Pogues today.

Rant-a-Bit by Scott Hudson: The Ledge #706: Loud Loud Loud Loud Guitars (Pt. 1) scotthudson.blogspot.com/2026/02/the-...

To prep for last night's episode of The Ledge, I decided to listen to all 9 volumes of the fabulous Back From the Grave compilations in the Hudson Compound this week. (The volume 10 vinyl is included in the digital copy of version 9.) It was quite a fun week of garage rock mayhem!

I'm a day late for my weekly report but hey, I was busy yesterday! It's still early in the year so there's not a lot of new releases, but that Pink Fairies covers album is crazy. And the Dry Cleaning record is pretty fabulous.
