@Mizmazzle it’s great. My favorite is the molcajete mixto (which includes carne asada).
-
@mclaincausey yeah those mocajetes are incredible. Bubbling, boiling, stone bowl of goodness.

Visiting one of my local record stores in a rush today.
Fifteen minutes before picking up my kids from school, I decided to visit the most flamboyant shop in town (smoking is allowed and two dogs are sitting behind the counter), because there was a parking place right in front the shop.Chatting with this guys for some years now and now knowing we visited the same dives in the late 80’; I must have mentioned something.
Me: Just looking. Have only a few minutes!
Them: We have it here... (Big grin and some barking of the dogs)
Me: ***…(overwhelmed)Story behind:
About 1987 we visited the first concert of a local punk band called ‘Phantoms of Future’.
Today to be a critical seen band and a recommend shop named Idiots Records.At this day’s we expected to be flooded in beer and loud music.
Jad Wio as an opener, only two persons on stage and the drums came from a tape machine!
They drove us mad!
Haven’t seen a lot of concerts as a 17 teen,
they blew my mind!!
Thought ‘Paint it black’ is originally from them
.After all this years, I have this on LP now!
Love this thread!! -
When I started my current job in sales I met with my 4 experienced colleagues to go over a number of things. One of them lives in Dortmund, so we met there. Item number 1 on my list for after-work activities: a visit to Idiot Records, where I was greeted by Sir Hannes, who immediately offered me a beer. Great place, especially if you're into metal and punk

Coming back to this quite often recently

@Mizmazzle I listened to that John Prine record for the first time a few months ago after hearing a beautiful rendition of Mexican Home at a bar in Thailand.
Prior to that my only experience with his music was this cover of In Spite of Ourselves by Viagra Boys, which is possibly one of the best love songs I've ever heard (in a really unconventional sense...)
I just love the concept of celebrating a partner's idiosyncrasies and flaws rather than romanticising an idealised version of them.

@T4920 - love that song in all versions, and this one with Amy & VB is fantastic

@Mizmazzle Welfare Jazz, start to finish.
Thank me later

$6 well spent

@T4920 I've not heard of John Prine or VB - or even this particular song - but all 3 are quite amazing. thanks for sharing!
also i'm not the biggest fan of covers, but there are a few great ones out there (this woman's work by maxwell anyone?!) -- the VB cover is pretty good. I like how they make it their own with the twangy guitar sounds - adds a sadness to the track
-
@Inorganic John Prine IMO is one of the greatest singers-songwriters of all time, highly recommend a deep dive. Even his final album is magnificent. COVID took him. He was the first COVID death that really hit home for me.
Think it, be it.
