ON THE TURNTABLE: Big Red Machine - How Long Do You Think It’s Gonna Last?

Short, sharp and frank reviews from a confessed vinyl junkie. I’ll be posting my most loved records and most recent purchases right here for your perusal every week.

Sophomore album from the dream team duo of The National’s Aaron Dessner and Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon. Considering Bon Iver and The National are my two favourite Alt Rock/Folk/Americana bands, it comes as no surprise I’m a huge fan of this album. Everything these guys touch turns to gold, and this release is certainly no exception.

It’s literally a mix of The National and Bon Iver’s songwriting and production skills with added friends along for the ride, including Taylor Swift, Ben Howard; This Is Kit, Sharon Van Etten and Fleet Foxes, to name a few. Gorgeous sounds, created by the best in the business, it’s music porn to my ears, not to be confused with porn music.
