The cover of Keiji Haino, "Watashi Dake?" (Black Editions, 2017 reissue) sits on a Now Spinning easel, while the record plays on a Technics 1200 turntable next to stereo components, more records, and a blue lava lamp.

Record sleeve art, with a color photograph shot at night and showing a modest house, corner-on. The house is lit from inside and an orange glow comes from the windows and an open door. Another, more yellow glow is in the center of the frame, and the upper parts of some backlit deciduous trees make up the horizon.
Now playing: Alan Licht - Havens LP (2024, Vins du Select Qualité). I hereby join the clamoring throng putting this among the best records of the year. And the cover art reminds me I need to frame the Todd Hido print from the House Hunting series. #nowplaying #blackeditions
