So excited to finally post this! I finally got the last pieces of the Vinyl Me Please version of the Jazz is Dead series (at least the releases so far 😅) a few months ago and ever since I’ve been planning this stop motion reel!!
JID is an amazing series of jazz albums put together by Adrian Younge (who is a film composer and producer) and Ali Shaheed Muhammad (from Tribe Called Quest!). Each album features a different jazz legend and varies significantly from the last album. These beautiful Vinyl Me Please pressings come with colored vinyl correlating to each album and have a beautiful outer stencil jacket with the words “Jazz is Dead” cut out so when the inner sleeve is in place the words are colored 😍. Not a single one of these albums is dull, boring or of poor quality. Some occasionally feature a jazz vocalist but for the most part they’re instrumental.
Do these qualify for #letsplaysomeawesometunes hosted by @lady_mass_ ? I would hope so! How about #musicagainstmondaymood hosted by @vinylofmus ? Absolutely! 😁
I started getting into the series when JID 005 came out and got all the subsequent releases but then I had to do some catching up! Between represses from VMP and Discogs I was finally able to complete the set (for now!). I feel very lucky to have these as most albums are only limited to 500! 😄
Since today is my birthday I couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate here than w my this stop motion reel! I hope you all enjoy! These reels are time consuming but always fun to make! I couldn’t be happier with the end result 🤩
Have a great day everyone! It may be Monday but that doesn’t mean you can’t play some great tunes and enjoy yourself
😄✌🏼

Ok so this might seem like a strange pairing for those of you who are familiar with both but bear with me.
📖 The Fountainhead is a timeless piece of literature. Among other things, it deals with the main character, Howard Roark, who is an architect who has a new way of thinking, creating structures that were not only more practical but also in configurations never seen before. In his unwillingness to compromise his road is both long, tumultuous and difficult but ultimately rewarding.
I watched the Grateful Dead biography movie “Long Strange Trip” when the realization came. They explain that during the recording of this, around 1968, the Dead were fed up with the “standards” of recording an album and the need for “a hit”. They were more accustomed to how they play on the road: with spontaneity, an open mind and a drive to see where they’ll music will take you instead of the converse. Despite push from the record label, they were entirely uncompromising and insisted to record how they wanted and with the content they wanted; song length or public appeal be damned. The product was Aoxomoxoa. An album unlike any of those before it in every way. They went on creating music unlike any other band by evolving their songs on the stage and releasing most of their albums as live takes of songs.
I also felt the completion of this hefty volume called for a pout of this wonderful single malt scotch from the Highlands 🏴🥃
Hope you enjoyed my book and music pairing 📖☺️🎶✌🏼
