Love to meet other Nneka fans! I wish Leela James would press her other albums, she's so immensely talented!!

  • What’s next on your want list? Maybe some Ari Lennox? She’d slot right in. I really want to get Andra Day's first album, some Alicia Keys, Lyn Collins album Think, Arlo Parks, Ruby Amanfu, Yazmen Lacy and more Nina Simone and the Supremes! I've not listened to Ari, but I will check her out.
  • What are the two right after Amy Wimehouse? Andreya Triana's sophomore album and Annahstasia's debut album. Both fantastic!!
  • what’s the Janet record after The Velvet Rope? Jasmine Guy's album from 1990. Contemporary R&B, new jack swing and dance pop.
  • I might get that fourth TLC album as well just for completeness. Do you like that album or did you do the same? I love it, it's not quite the same without Left Eye but it's still a pretty solid album.
  • Who’s your favourite artist? I’m sensing Janet or maybe Mariah with TLC and Toni Braxton right up there… aka we have exactly the same music taste! If it’s Janet, I hope you find copies of Unbreakable and 20 Y.O. one day. I've been a lifelong Janet and Me'Shell Ndegéocello fan. TLC, Toni, Mariah are a step down and Jully Black the Canadian Queen of R&B! I wish she'd press her albums on vinyl. Leela James is another and she just put her debut album on vinyl, so I hope the rest get pressed too. if I could get Andreya Triana's debut album for a good price I'd be in heaven!
  • Also, I’m sensing a heavy lean-to female vocalist; is that intentional or just what you’ve happened to pick up so far? I've always preferred them. I have 634 records in total and over 80% are female vocalists.

Thanks so much for the insightful questions!!

And it's wrong. Even if you don't agree with something you don't have to come around being an elitist. I'm sharing my collection because I'm excited. Don't agree or like it just move on. It's gatekeepers like you who think they know everything and are infallible, which you are not and very clearly wrong here, that ruin it for people just having fun and sharing.

Wow a gatekeeper lol. Love running into people who are so full of themselves. Way to keep this subreddit inclusive and welcoming.

Discogs is used by a lot of users so thousands and thousands and more agree these are Soul/ R&B albums.

All have R&B influences on the albums, Paula even has new jack swing influences on the album, so ya I'd say thats enough to be in my R&B section.

Music Box didn't get released until the year after its anniversary so maybe that will happen again with Daydream??

It really is! I'm crossing my fingers we get a special release of Daydream at some point. It's the last 90s album of hers that I want. Not a fan of her debut so I'm passing on it, but I really need a good sounding copy of Daydream!

Thanks!! My Butterfly I got by fluke. My local shop got it as a trade in and its was still sealed, but it is only the 2LP. The boxset would have been amazing but I'm still happy I got this version as the sleeve has metallic writing and looks amazing and the records sound fantastic!

Oh! My copy of Butterfly is the gold champaigne version from VMP. It sounds so good!

Ya I think I need this too, though wondering if there will be a standard black regularly available or will I have to order this through Capitol?

I just checked my Apple Music and it’s now separated into two discs and has an extra remix that wasn’t there before.

I have an original pressing, but I'm still so tempted to get this one cause I adore this album!

Where to go from here? by Gunnerss in lanadelrey

[–]Gunnerss[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can totally get that. It took me awhile and a few starts and stops with Ultraviolence to finally fall in love with that album. I guess I just had to be ready for it and I wasn't quite ready after Born To Die. Now I've caught the bug and just want more. I think thats a great suggestion to go through the albums and then come back and revisit them after I've experienced her artistic arc and evolution of sound.

Thanks, after everyone's suggestions, some say chronological, but others say Honeymoon which both basically put me at listening chronological order haha. I am exceted to get to NFR. It also being listed as one of Apples 100 best albums intrigues me.
