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.

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.

which Anthrax did you get? I need Among The Living on vinyl
― Stormy Davis, Monday, 5 March 2012 22:03 (twelve years ago) link
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.
― one dis leads to another (ian), Monday, 5 March 2012 22:12 (twelve years ago) link
which gaddis books?
― sarahell, Monday, 5 March 2012 22:19 (twelve years ago) link
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.
― one dis leads to another (ian), Monday, 5 March 2012 22:22 (twelve years ago) link
agape agape is good!
they are all good!
― Mr. Que, Monday, 5 March 2012 22:30 (twelve years ago) link
i know we're talked about gaddis before, because i have complained abt not being able to wade through a frolic of his own.
― one dis leads to another (ian), Monday, 5 March 2012 22:33 (twelve years ago) link
yah we have. agape is rad though--probably my third favorite?
― Mr. Que, Monday, 5 March 2012 22:39 (twelve years ago) link
well i'll read it and then trade it to the bookstore.
― one dis leads to another (ian), Monday, 5 March 2012 22:43 (twelve years ago) link
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.
― sarahell, Monday, 5 March 2012 22:45 (twelve years ago) link
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.
― one dis leads to another (ian), Monday, 5 March 2012 22:48 (twelve years ago) link
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.
― sarahell, Monday, 5 March 2012 22:51 (twelve years ago) link
^^ 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.
― fully formed adult banaka unit (sleeve), Monday, 5 March 2012 23:26 (twelve years ago) link
i love giving good credit for cool books! cuz most people bring me stinky books.

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.

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.

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...

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?

is it two suns worth on fontana? i can't see the picture. i don't know much about the group. always liked the album though. "jelly gas flame" is a good one. kind of a minor west coast artifact, but well worth owning.
― scott seward, Friday, 9 March 2012 13:45 (twelve years ago) link
my pal vinylty is selling that right now.
this guy comes in my store twice a year with my wife and i'm kinda envious of his lifestyle. just goes up and down the east coast and into pennsylvania buying in stores and at shows and does like 3 or 4 big auctions a year. he has a dedicated following. he told me he has 3000 people on his email list that he contacts before he does an auction! he can get way above average prices for records just because people like buying from him. plus, i can't think of another ebay seller who mirrors my own listening tastes more exactly. its uncanny. most of what he sells is stuff i either own or would want to own.

Thanks for the tip - i'll keep an eye out. Holy shit - he has some nice records. I'd be envious of his lifestyle if he was coming into my store with my wife!
― d90, Friday, 9 March 2012 14:21 (twelve years ago) link
Back to Morninglory though, this l.p is by a different band to the Jelly Gas Flame folks. Its called Growing - on Toya records - 1972.
― d90, Friday, 9 March 2012 14:23 (twelve years ago) link
oh even cooler. i love that label. i don't have that one though.
