all the best :zoviet*france: (esp. mohnomishe and shadow, thief of the sun), most of the first 20 Rather Interesting titles, NNCK's 'The Circle Broken' cassette, and anything else that commands upwards of $100+ on eBay.

everything released by the Vanity and Newsic/Spiral labels.

oh, and Schlammpeitziger's 'Freundlichbarracudamelodieliedgut' 2LP. 'Collected Simplesongs...' is such a poor substitute.

SHADOW, THIEF OF THE SUN !!!

Paul (scifisoul), Thursday, 6 February 2003 17:31 (twenty-three years ago)

Lee Perry/Upsetters: Blackboard Jungle Dub

Oops (Oops), Saturday, 8 February 2003 23:59 (twenty-three years ago)

Blackboard Jungle is compiled, along with Chapter One here.

James Annett (jlannett), Sunday, 9 February 2003 00:49 (twenty-three years ago)

The Weirdos-Action Design EP
Bobbie Gentry-Delta Sweete, Local Gentry
The Sound of Feeling On Verve. Does anyone know anything about this? Crazy vocal jazz from two sisters, late sixties?
Runaways-all three albums
Daughters of Albion
Redd Kross-Teen Babes from Monsanto
Beyond the Valley of the Dolls soundtrack
Smashing Time soundtrack
The Swinging World of Johnny Rios and Us 4
Wayne County-Things Your Mother Never Told You

Also, I know this has been mentioned before (by Billy Dods, possibly?)--the entire Ze records catalog.

Arthur (Arthur), Sunday, 9 February 2003 03:36 (twenty-three years ago)

All the Kitchens of Distinction albums... think they're being reissued. Anyway, they should never be out of print.

-The Smiths
-Joy Division
-My Bloody Valentine
-The Sex Pistols (easy one there)

Precious few others.

The Falling Joys "Wishlist"

Lord Custos, that just got re-mastered and re-issued here in Aus as part of a 3 album set ("Wishlist", "Psychohum" and "Aerial"). I was mega-pleased to be able to buy all three for such a low price :)

Not the original artwork or anything, though, drats.

Trayce (trayce), Sunday, 9 February 2003 06:02 (twenty-three years ago)

I second the Bobbie Gentry records that Arthur mentioned. I have a copy of the briefly-in-print Rev-Ola CD of Touch 'Em with Love, and the two you mention on LPs which are getting sort of beat up.

Amateurist (amateurist), Sunday, 9 February 2003 06:10 (twenty-three years ago)

George Harrison - Cloud Nine

Only because I saw the CD used the other day and realized it

Bobby D Gray (bedhead), Sunday, 9 February 2003 06:24 (twenty-three years ago)

Vanity Six debut. Alas it is and I can't get ahold of it (unless I pay *too* much money)

nathalie (nathalie), Sunday, 9 February 2003 09:42 (twenty-three years ago)

Toni Basil's Word of Mouth

Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Sunday, 9 February 2003 09:45 (twenty-three years ago)

For some reason Jody through my beer goggles I read that as Toni Basil's Wrath of the Math which I thought was funny enough to share.

(Good morning!)

Amateurist (amateurist), Sunday, 9 February 2003 09:49 (twenty-three years ago)

Well, her backing band is Devo...

Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Sunday, 9 February 2003 09:50 (twenty-three years ago)

Peter Laughner's "Take The Guitar Player For A Ride"
Dream Syndicate's "Medicine Show" as mentioned above. (Also Opal's "Early Recordings" and the "Rainy Day" CD)
first couple Scritti Politti EPs.
Hackamore Brick's album
(for starters...)

M Specktor (M Specktor), Sunday, 9 February 2003 16:35 (twenty-three years ago)

"Lee Perry/Upsetters: Blackboard Jungle Dub"

Actually this IS available, as part of a twofer with "Scratch & Company" aka "Chapter One", cunning retitled "Scratch Attack" so that no-one realises!

Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Sunday, 9 February 2003 18:57 (twenty-three years ago)

Screaming Blue Messiahs - Gun Shy

dave225 (Dave225), Monday, 10 February 2003 13:19 (twenty-three years ago)

four months pass...
Does anyone know what exactly happened to Infinite Zero (the label set up by Henry Rollins and Rick Rubin designed specifically for the re-release of crucial-yet-heretofore out-of-print albums)? Why did they go belly-up?

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Sunday, 15 June 2003 21:56 (twenty-three years ago)

five months pass...
Eddie Palmieri: Lucumi, Macumba, Voodoo
Riad el-Sounbatti: [not sure of exact title, but his collected oud taksim (i.e., solo improvisations--shame on the Egyptian music business for letting the solo recordings of this master go out of print]
Ingram Marshall: The Fragility Cycles
Paul Dresher: Liquid and Stellar Music (more Frippish guitar--and some of the best in that mode--though he claims to have developed the sound independently of Fripp, and anyway, studied with avant-garde/modern classical types)

Rockist Scientist, Saturday, 29 November 2003 23:25 (twenty-two years ago)

Probably, Jerome Cooper: The Unpredictability of Predictability, though I don't feel 100% sure I would like it now. (I only heard parts of it on the radio--long ago.)

Rockist Scientist, Saturday, 29 November 2003 23:31 (twenty-two years ago)

Also, Stefan Weisser's "Editededitions & Contexts" or whatever the exact name is should be reissued on CD. (It's not nearly enough to fill up a CD, but I'm sure he could scrape up some other archival recordings that would be compatible.)

Rockist Scientist, Saturday, 29 November 2003 23:47 (twenty-two years ago)

There is no good reason why these albums have not been reissued in shiny new deluxe remastered editions:

Starsailor - Tim Buckley
Lick my Decals off baby - Captain Beefheart
Like an old fashioned waltz - Sandy Denny
Rendezvous - Sandy Denny
Planxty - Planxty
Henry the Human Fly - Richard Thompson
Hokey Pokey - Richard and Linda Thompson
Pour Down like Silver - Richard and Linda Thompson

Pete S, Saturday, 29 November 2003 23:52 (twenty-two years ago)

The Scientists-Sweet Corn Sessions
Any Brenton Wood albums

Colin Beckett (Colin Beckett), Sunday, 30 November 2003 00:15 (twenty-two years ago)

Both volumes of Devo's Hardcore.

Unum, Sunday, 30 November 2003 01:09 (twenty-two years ago)

The KLF, I guess?

Girolamo Savonarola, Sunday, 30 November 2003 01:35 (twenty-two years ago)

Joel Chadabe: Rhythms

Rockist Scientist, Sunday, 30 November 2003 01:37 (twenty-two years ago)

Ultravox, everything John Foxx era, was out of print last I checked. It's not good that people will believe "Vienna" was that band's first album!!

China Crisis was nowhere to be found on CD when I was looking early this year, I had to get the vinyl off ebay.

sucka (sucka), Sunday, 30 November 2003 03:42 (twenty-two years ago)

Vanity Six debut. Alas it is and I can't get ahold of it (unless I pay *too* much money)

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2575969142&category=306

Granted, there's still over a day left, but "Drive Me Wild" alone is worth at least twenty bucks.

J0hn Darn1elle (J0hn Darn1elle), Sunday, 30 November 2003 04:15 (twenty-two years ago)

***********NUMB by HAMMERBOX************

Best female rock vocalist *EVER*!!!

Durango 95 "lose control"

chad (chad), Sunday, 30 November 2003 05:25 (twenty-two years ago)

Grand Buffet - Scrooge McRock - just scored a copy today after spending almost a year looking.

Girolamo Savonarola, Monday, 1 December 2003 02:36 (twenty-two years ago)

jazz composers alb seconded!!!

ray russell- live at the ICA.

Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Monday, 1 December 2003 12:30 (twenty-two years ago)

JOhn, I scored a copy not long after I posted that. And I didn't have to pay *too much money*. Now I am longing after SPolitti.

nathalie (nathalie), Monday, 1 December 2003 12:43 (twenty-two years ago)

The Move: Message To The Country
Dennis Wilson: Pafific Ocean Blue

+ several Norwegian ones.

Geir Hongro (GeirHong), Monday, 1 December 2003 13:30 (twenty-two years ago)

And, yes, why wasn't "From Luxury To Heartache" included in the last Culture Club reissues. It is by far a much better album than "Waking Up With The House On Fire".

Geir Hongro (GeirHong), Monday, 1 December 2003 13:34 (twenty-two years ago)

Howard Tate - Get It While You Can: The Legendary Sessions

only came out in 1995 on Verve, but impossible to find.

Jonathan (Jonathan), Monday, 1 December 2003 13:36 (twenty-two years ago)

The db's Like This and The Sound of Music. I know Stamey had left the group but these are my 2 favorite db's cds. It took a long time to find SOM on cd to replace my album. I have been tempted to sell my Like This copy as it brings big bucks.

Jim Reckling (Jim Reckling), Monday, 1 December 2003 13:48 (twenty-two years ago)

Almost forgot Marshall Crenshaw's Downtown and Life's Too Short. Downtown in particular is one of MC's finest.

Jim

Jim Reckling (Jim Reckling), Monday, 1 December 2003 13:49 (twenty-two years ago)

N*E*R*D 'In Search Of' version 1.0

Nu-Enrique (Enrique), Monday, 1 December 2003 13:55 (twenty-two years ago)

Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Monday, 1 December 2003 14:20 (twenty-two years ago)

Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Monday, 1 December 2003 14:30 (twenty-two years ago)

Cecil Taylor, Don Charry, Pharoah Sanders.... hmmmm, can I second it too?

Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Monday, 1 December 2003 14:39 (twenty-two years ago)

you def can.

Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Monday, 1 December 2003 14:43 (twenty-two years ago)

Has "The Medicine Show" by Dream Syndicate ever been released on CD?

Geir Hongro (GeirHong), Tuesday, 9 December 2003 23:21 (twenty-two years ago)

everything by Ed's Redeeming Qualities.

Shakey Mo Collier, Wednesday, 10 December 2003 00:31 (twenty-two years ago)

Mr. Snrub (Mr. Snrub), Thursday, 22 April 2004 21:35 (twenty-two years ago)

I can't see how anyone can argue the avalanches album should not be out of print. You had enough chances to buy it, forchristsakes!
