Let's Get Physical...Media! Phil's Probably-Used CD/LP Pick of the Month: Howard Tate's GET IT WHILE YOU CAN (Verve, 1967) (Paid Subscribers Only Feature)

The streaming media barons mean no good. Look it up for yourselves, read a book about it, or ask your friendly neighborhood music-maker. BUY PHYSICAL MEDIA--I'm here each month with picks!

I’ve been trying to land on an idea to reward my paid subscribers for months, with no satisfaction. However, yesterday, a work comrade of mine suggested I write a “tips” or “picks” column, an approach which she has observed working well for many Substack users. I have long been a cross between Johnny Appleseed and a Jehovah’s Witness (no offense—I respect their…insistence) when it comes to pushing records I absolutely love on unsuspecting passersby and (occasionally) friends, so it made sense. I’m gonna go for it!
