Look-Ka Py Py
The Meters ·1969
"This record is... ooh, it's a collector's limited edition high-quality colored vinyl. The Meters, seminal New Orleans funk band, Neville Brothers, ba ba ba. Zigaboo Modeliste is the drummer in this band and is maybe the best drummer ever, in the world. Just like the funkiest... put this record on for a party, put this record on to chill out and relax. This is like Top 10 records of all time for me."

Hejira
Joni Mitchell ·1976
"Joni Mitchell's 'Hejira.' I listen to it almost every night for the better portion of 12 years. If you're a Jaco Pastorius fan, the most beautiful, lyrical instrument on this record might not be Joni Mitchell's voice, it might be Jaco's bass."
