Records With TJ – Introduction

 

WELCOME, WECLOME!!! Welcome…….welcome, to the first of many record & vinyl album reviews  as thought and heard by me…TJ the Barber. I’m new to Los Angeles and have recently started working at The Proper Barbershop on W. 3rd. Both of those facts and life’s ongoing events that continue to unfold will play a huge factor in these reviews. I continue to figure out who I am in this new territory, and find that music releases some of the mind fuck that goes along with moving and having all new surroundings. So these articles will go in no particular order and may be very random at times. And other times I’m sure I’ll have a theme. Say if I’m excited about an album release. But we’ll worry about that later. For now just know, these reviews will be based on 5 elements: Listening Enjoyment, Art & Packaging, Vinyl Quality, Album Playability, and Overall Feel of the Entire Album. They won’t be the most professional pieces you have ever read and I assure you that there will be mistakes made in this process. So if you read this and have a comment like, ”This douche bag knows nothing of music and sucks at typing, spelling, train of thought, and lacks overall competence.” Well then good sir, you can go Fist Yourself. ;)” With that in mind you can now indulge in my 1st Review.
