I Love Vinyl! Recent Haul/Score/Purchase Thread (2010)

sun city girls -1st
This might be their best. So good.

coldcut - what's that noise

One of the 1st 5 tapes I ever bought! :)

you'll almost never find anything good for less than $4.99 at reckless, but you _will_ find shitloads of awesome stuff AT $4.99 or $5.99. i really like that place.

No, man that was under five bucks for all those records, total.. IN TOTO. So ya, the pricing at Reckless is frequently awesome.

Roedelius - Jardin Au Fou (on egg)
Eurythmics - In The Garden (with conny, jaki and holger)

^ i love that Roedelius Jardin

fuck that eurhythmics record is AWESOME jaxon

and weirdly took me FOREVER to find

just gotta post this video ONE MORE TIME. it's so great. looks like Tarsem's The Fall or jodorowsky.

god i hate the eurthymics

i mostly agree, but that album is more about CONNY PLANK producing CAN -- dave and annie hold up really well, but that wouldnt be enough to do it for me otherwise...

Yeah I haven't heard that album just a couple of tracks off it but it's a lot different to what they're known for. I mean I quite like Love is a stranger and Sweet Dreams but can't stand much else they did.

i always liked in the garden. but i like them pretty much throughout the 80's. i like these albums too:

Vomito Negro - Human
Dominion - Lost

<3 the force dimension record i have. looks like the rest is good stuff too

those are great scores, omar little! i paid $20 for that Shirley Record and it's a really good one imo.

Fred Neil - Everybody's Talkin'
Martin Denny - Primitiva. Exotic Sounds of...
Rupert Hine - The Wildest Wish To Fly
Minnie Riperton - Perfect Angel
Kyze - Stomp: Move Jump Jack Your Body 12"
Modern Rocketry - s/t

how are you feeling the denny, man? i've had a mild interest & certainly an appreciation for exotica for a while, but it might be the season to really dig in... getting drunk on juice & vodka, baking in the sun.

visited amoeba berkeley today...

v/a - martin (comp of martin hannett-produced tracks including joy division, buzzcocks, a certain ratio, omd, etc)
v/a - gotta have house: the best of house music vol 2
v/a - up-front 1 (14 dance trax and bonus album of hip hop megamixes!)

12"s:
model 500 - night drive (through babylon)
justus kohnke - don't go
lindstrom - feedelity remixed vol 1 (with mungolian jetset remix)
mark e - merc 001
midnight magic - beam me up
shit robot - i got a feeling

man, that denny album was amazing. i've got very little exotica, although i totally appreciate it. i was thinking to myself today that this too would be my season to dig in. and it was only a buck (pretty much everything i bought today besides the fred neil was a buck or less)

most exotica is super cheap ime. and super awesome

there's a ton of good martin denny records

please don't start another lounge revolution. i'm still getting over the last one.

just got some good stuff at a stoop sale

george mcrae - rock your baby
ben sidran - don't let go
cabaret voltaire - here to go 12"
tom tom club - man with the 4-way hips 12"
temptations - 1990

xpost - I never went much deeper than denny, les baxter and esquivel

LOVE rock yer baby. LP or 12"? LP has at v least three ultimate bangers--the title track, you can have it all, and i get lifted. <3

LP. Crappy sleeve but clean record. I Get Lifted is so classic, I've had MP3s of the album for a few months and been on the hunt for the vinyl

I just traded in a copy of the George McCrae lp tonite at Reckless (had two copies.) My fave the LP (other than the title cut, which has long been like top 5 songs all-time for me) has always been "Make It Right". It has that same 'droney organ and simple-but-splendid chord changes' vibe as the title cut. sold about 10 other albums, got the following in trade:

Dif Juz - Out of the Trees
Bee Gees - Main Course
Otis Spann - Crying Time (on Vanguard w/ Barry Melton on gtr!!)
Stomu Yamash'ta - Go Live in Paris
Wham! - s/t (70s band on GRT ... "good" condition for a buck)
Gap Band III (50 cents)
Technotronic - Pump Up the Jam 12" (50 cents)
Heatwave - (50 cents)

other shit from last couple weeks-

Jim Shepard - V3 Next Album
Velvet Underground - Hilltop Pop Festival
Richard Youngs - Advent
Stevie Nicks - Bella Donna ($2)
Chris Hillman - Slippin Away ($1)
Sandy Nelson - Drumming Up a Storm ($1, "good" condition)
Santana - Festival ($2)
Stomu Yamash'ta - East Wind
Godley and Creme - L
Michael Hurley - Blue Hills
Ramsey Lewis - Upendo ni Pamoja
Come - Eleven:Eleven
Whodini - Escape
Aynsley Dunbar Retaliation - To Mum from Aynsley and the Boys
Meg Baird - Dear Companion
Les Dudek - s/t ($2)
The Bongos - Drums Along the Hudson ($2)

what's Stomu Yamash'ta's Go like? i always see it and just assume it's gonna be a wanky fusion album. i've got Man From the East and a soundtrack he did for the movie Tempest. man from the east is pretty amazing. weird, funky, japanese krauty prog

really interesting comments including input from band members & others who put the album together. interesting that chris darrow remixed the album for final release. would be interesting to hear the original mix, but that would mean finding the CD..

Taking a couple hundred CDs that I couldn't sell online to Amoeba and hoping to get some exchange for RECORDS. Excited to post my score here. Should I hunt for bargains or treat myself to fancy expensive Parson Sound, etc? I probably will get nothing for these shitty Cds

hunt for bargains and also buy that PS box!

haha

Think Amoeba will have it? How much should I expect for like 300-400 CDs? Not the shittiest CDs ever but maybe a little generic, which is why I didn't list them online. All in good condition.

the way amoeba is now, u will probably get anywhere from 200-400$. they barely take anything anymore, and the ones they do take, they give a buck to 3 (5 if you're lucky). they used to give you 4-6$ per cd
