Much Ado About Something

Trip Thru The #Vinyl Collection, Day 225: Eurythmics, We Too Are One. Their ‘breakup’ LP is bitterly beautiful, including “Don’t Ask Me Why” and “You Hurt Me.” Dave and Annie went on to pursue solo work; a reunion album, Peace, came a decade later. #nowspinning #nowplaying #vinylsky #vinylrecords

Trip Thru The #Vinyl Collection, Day 223: Eurythmics, Revenge. I'm surprised how often I meet a young person who has never heard "Missionary Man," one of their most stellar singles. The album's uneven, yes, but the highs ("Angel") are so very high. #nowspinning #nowplaying #vinylsky #vinylrecords

Trip Thru The #Vinyl Collection, Day 222: Eurythmics, Be Yourself Tonight. When I first heard this LP in 1985, I was unprepared: in place of their synths, they now had snarling guitars, Motown basslines, Stevie, Aretha, Costello! True musical magic. #nowspinning #nowplaying #vinylsky #vinylrecords

Trip Thru The #Vinyl Collection, Day 221: Eurythmics, 1984. Feels appropriate to post this album on Independence Eve, the rejected soundtrack to the film adaptation of the novel about autocracy. “Sexcrime,” “Julia” are among the band's finest moments #nowspinning #nowplaying #vinylsky #vinylrecords
