The Good Thing selection for February 2024:
"If you are ever at a loss as to what to listen to here’s what you should do. Go to your dedicated Good Thing section of your record collection, close your eyes and pick a random gem. If for some reason you find yourself far from your record collection or a record player then dial in the full Analog Africa playlist on Spotify and for many hours you may worry no more. That’s what we did last summer and that’s how we first came across this impossibly, outrageously, stupendously perfect record. The backstory is perhaps even more amazing than the music. It involves a missing cargo ship that is found in a field in Cabo Verde, bedazzled in space dust and full of synthesizersI The island will no never be the same." - Will Pratt
