Someday Man
Paul Williams ·1970
"'Someday Man,' the title track from this record, was covered by the Monkees. This was his first solo record. The production's really cool. Very nice arrangements."

Scott
Scott Walker ·1967
"This Scott Walker record, what can you say. A man for all seasons. Visionary, really ahead of his time. One of my favorite singers and composers."

Rich Kid Blues
Marianne Faithfull ·1984
"She's also a master of covers. She covers Cat Stevens, Tim Hardin again, multiple Bob Dylan songs. Dylan's songs are really hard to cover, I think. I think there's a lot of pretty repulsive Dylan covers out there but she really nails it."

"I had only heard really early Can stuff, which I loved. But this record really blew my mind. I hadn't really heard anything like it. Everyone is such a unique player and it's just a very strange, murky record that's really beautiful and dark."

Poison Season
Destroyer ·2015
"Destroyer. I was originally gonna look for a record of his called 'Your Blues,' which is a real favorite of mine, but this was his second to last record. It's really great. He's kind of going in a direction where there's kind of some smoother arrangements and he's sort of utilizing his voice in a more sophisticated manner."
