ILV clubhouse

yeah you gotta watch it. i gotta watch it! i find it hard to say no when people bring stuff into the store. good stuff. i'm good at saying no to crappy stuff.

scott do you sell on Discogs? someday i will make it out there.

i think it would be funny to buy records at Scott's store via Skype.

i do sell some pricy indie stuff on discogs. not much though. i have all that stuff in the store too and i price it way cheaper in the store than the price online. i definitely prefer to sell it in the store. discogs can be cool though. sold a broadcast 45 for 50 bucks and an 80's dance 12 inch for 50 last week. so, it pays to keep stuff on there forever.

oh hey just got a discogs invoice:

Order ID Item Buyer Fee
----------------------------------------------------------------
1168182-61 Christina Carter - Bastard Win $ 1.20
1168182-62 Mean Season - Grace $ 1.50
1168182-63 Jega - Phlax (12") $ 2.40
1168182-65 Modern Lovers* - Live At The L $ 2.70
------
Total: $ 7.80

discogs kinda great as far as not gouging you. ebay got like 600 bucks from me last month. and then they get paypal money, etc.

a weird batch of stuff:

wait, do i need that Mirror lp? I need to check, that's a sweet price regardless

I like selling on disocgs, just sold a Tom Tom Club 12" to a guy in Brazil. I wish there were a website for trading records.

me too. start listing here?

I would trade any of these records for the right record(s) http://www.discogs.com/seller/lolvalstein

hey cool clubhouse whats up

hi lamp!

going to go out thrifting soon, just finishing my coffee. expectations are low but there are 4 spots to hit easily within walking or bus loop of my home.
it's sunny!

I am not going thrifting but Monday is my day to dig in used bins, I usually hit two spots on the way to my radio show.

this thread makes me miss records. I have had to shift my attention lately.
There was a big documentary festival in Columbia last weekend. There was a movie called Searching for Sugarman, it is about Rodriguez.
I heard that it was really good, which is encouraging, seems like music docs can be lazy and bad a lot of times.

i got a cool glass vase at the thrift store and broke it on th way home :(

oof bud.

it's okay. i still got a weird bird painting and some stupid rock records to sell the the store. (ac/dc, anthrax, bruce)

and i am gonna go to 2 or 3 other spots after another cuppa cawfee and maybe some snacks

thrift scores for myself today--
grateful dead '75 boot 2xlp, TARKL sounds good! uh oh it's skipping.
2x williams gaddis hardcovers
a kinda marked up copy of 'blues people'

got some other books to trade to the bookstore, some more records to trade to the store--late horace silver, some graham nash, run dmc, etc.

which Anthrax did you get? I need Among The Living on vinyl

that is the one i got. it's VG+ iirc with a few scuff-type marks that may or may not sound, i haven't checked it yet.

which gaddis books?

agape agape and carpenter's gothic. gonna sell my carpenter's gothic paperback, may just sell agape agape instead of reading it. i have too many books.

agape agape is good!

they are all good!

i know we're talked about gaddis before, because i have complained abt not being able to wade through a frolic of his own.

yah we have. agape is rad though--probably my third favorite?

well i'll read it and then trade it to the bookstore.

i have too many books. i need to find a good bookstore that will give me trade credit or money. it's weird, i've lived here for 15+ years and I have regular sell/trade records places, but not books.

i almost never try to sell books for cash, it's just such a small return. but i like trading for stuff i want to read.

yeah, same here -- the place i thought would be really cool about giving me trade credit was quite stingy, and i just ended up donating most of the books i'd brought in to prison libraries.

^^ that's what I ended up doing as well, it is a good option

today I found the Smithsonian Anthology Of American Folk Music Vol. 1, never realized those were boxes and not gatefolds but it makes sense with the booklet. also some relatively cheap Joy Division reissue/upgrades.

i love giving good credit for cool books! cuz most people bring me stinky books.

<3 blues people!

a nice guy i like is moving and he gave me boxes of weird books for free and i got a cool hardcover dylan picture book by the guy who did the bringing it all back home cover. dylan hanging out in woodstock and recording and touring with his rock band. my fave dylan period, natch. it has a picture of what was gonna be the cover of tarantula but they didn't use it cuz they both thought it was too similar to the cover of BIABH. i listened to 2nd side of BIABH five times in a row this morning. top ten 2nd side of all time for me. top five even.

i have that OJL record in the upper right!!!

Hey guys spent the afternoon with the midwife, she's nice and great, afterwards went searching for records and found Pete Jolly Trio and Friends's Little Bird! Also a odd maybe decent private press folkie lounge record.

Hey scott I really dig that record! Have you heard his second one?

yes i like that one too! glad you like it.

USPS broke a record i sent to a guy in washington state :(
it wasn't the most valuable item in the world, but it's a drag nonetheless.

hey ilv: i paid too much for for 'wed morning 3am' and 'heart food' but it was v v sunny and warm out today and i figure someone has to overpay for records

i am trying to convince the postdoc i share an office w/ the we should get a portable record player in here but he seems... unconvinced...

what is his postdoc in?

pollen!!!

i posted some more records on ebay after an afternoon of thrifting. aside from stuff listed i got a small stack of 3-6 dollar items i can sell to the store and for myself i got a lyrichord lp of african folk music with a bonket sleeve and an earl scruggs review lp.

It's really raining now! Still trying to solve my sound problem with recording vinyl. Anyone know a better free program for recording other than Audacity? Or do I just need to spend time figuring out the cleaning tools? I can't seem to remove the surface noise, noise removal just quiets the overall music, so I add the bass booster and it brings back the surface noise.

Hi there clubhouse, mind if i come in?

I was wondering if anyone here (Scott?) could tell me about this Morninglory lp i came across when pricing up some records for a fair. Its a great record - who were these guys and where were they from?
