Phil Alvin - Un 'sung Stories'Out of print on vinyl for over 30 years, the former Blasters frontman's solo debut is a soulful collection of blues, jazz, country, and pop songs originally written and recorded between 1925 1953. More than just an engaging document of pre rock Americana, the album features avant garde legend Sun Ra and his Arkestra, the Dirty Dozen Brass Band, and New Orleans saxman Lee Allen, whose session work with Little Richard and Fats Domino have earned him

Out of print on vinyl for over 30 years, the former Blasters frontman's solo debut is a soulful collection of blues, jazz, country, and pop songs originally written and recorded between 1925-1953. More than just an engaging document of pre-rock Americana, the album features avant-garde legend Sun Ra and his Arkestra, the Dirty Dozen Brass Band, and New Orleans saxman Lee Allen, whose session work with Little Richard and Fats Domino have earned him near-mythic status. Before there was any acknowledgement of what's now known as the Great American Songbook, a genre called Americana, Triple-A radio, or even an internet to aid in research, a dedicated band of crate-diggers sprang up around LA, discovering long-lost gems on 78s and 45s: Barret Dr. Demento Hansen, with his novelty records; Lux Interior of the Cramps, foraging for country and rockabilly; Billy Vera, amassing an R&B archive and perhaps the most eclectic of the lot, Phil Alvin. As renowned music journalist Chris Morris observes in the liner notes, If you made a trip to the Alvins' family home in Downey, affectionately known as 'the Flop,' in the early '80s, it was almost inevitable that Phil would reach into a crate of 78s and pull out some gem you had never heard. That pioneering eclecticism was admired by critics and fans alike, although Alvin was perhaps just a step or two ahead of the general audience, which is why this album was a cult favorite and not a platinum smash. If anything, it has a better chance at reaching a broad fan base now than it did when it was new. Today, this brilliantly sung, stirringly performed, and deeply felt record is ready for a new embrace by contemporary listeners, who should be ready to catch up to it's prophetic sound. The release comes on the heels of Liberation Hall's Mandatory: The Best of the Blasters, a definitive 20-song collection of the band's hits and deep cuts.

Great Product
Scent: Rain Water, Size: 33 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I just picked up this Liquid Hand Soap Refill in the Rainwater scent, and I’m seriously obsessed. I finally decided to stop buying those small plastic pumps every two weeks and grab the big 33 oz bottle instead. The Scent is Everything: If you like things that smell "clean" but not like bleach or fake lemons, you need this. It’s super fresh and garden-inspired—it literally smells like a rainy morning. Eco-Friendly & Saves Money: This one jug refills my countertop bottle about 2.5 times. It’s way cheaper in the long run and cuts down on all that plastic waste. Actually Moisturizing: My hands usually get so dry from washing them a million times a day, but this has aloe vera and olive oil in it. It feels really soft and doesn't leave my skin feeling tight. Clean Ingredients: It’s 98% plant-derived and cruelty-free, so I feel a lot better about having it at the kitchen sink where the whole family uses it. Honestly, if you're looking for a small way to upgrade your kitchen or bathroom vibe, this is it. It makes a boring chore feel a little more like a spa moment!

Like Mrs. Meyers Hand Soap
Scent: Basil, Size: 33 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Great hand soap and consistently re-purchase for use. Only downside has been the fluctuations in price. The fragrance is good and not over powering. Good at both greasy and non-greasy hand cleaning. Overall feels good on the skin!

Switched to Meyers, Not animal tested product
Scent: Lemon Verbena, Size: 33 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this refill and the smell is lemony and a sweet clean scent. I LOVE the fact this company does NOT test on animals and its good for the environment. I have switched to all Meyer products now including their room spray. It lathers nicely and it is gentle enough for my sensitive hands. I break out and dry out due to my autoimmune. I feel clean and this has been a great product. I was turned on to their body and cleaning products for when an AirnB home used it for all of their needs. I love seeing this in the larger bottles for refills. Great product!

Good product, but small in quantity.
Scent: Rain Water, Size: 33 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I like this soap a lot, but the size surprised me enough that it is worth mentioning. The Rainwater scent is clean and subtle, not overpowering or perfumey. The soap itself is clear, rinses clean, and does not leave my hands feeling dry or coated. I also appreciate that it is a more chemical conscious option that still works well for frequent handwashing. That said, I was genuinely surprised by how small the refill container was. Yes, the ounces are listed right on the ad and package, but the bottle itself looks tiny in comparison to what I expected from the photo. For the price, the quantity felt underwhelming, and that ultimately led me to return it. If the cost-to-quantity ratio made more sense, I would absolutely keep this on hand, because the product itself is very nice. Just go into it knowing the refill is smaller than you might expect based on the packaging.
