Vinyl picks of the month
St Kilda Music Buyer Declan Murphy shares his high-rotation vinyl obsessions of this month.
Wrecking Crew (soundtrack)
Here is the soundtrack to the truly fab 2015 documentary of the same name. In the tradition of Standing in the Shadows of Motown’s tribute to the Funk Brothers, The Wrecking Crew focused on the eponymous collective of West Coast session musicians who played on a bewildering amount of influential records throughout the 60s. From Spector to Sinatra, from the Beach Boys to the Byrds, from the Mamas & the Papas to the Monkees – these guys did it all.

Follow the Sun is a primo collection of classic lost Australian folk, rock and psych nuggets from the 70’s. This is a must-listen record.
