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-two 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.

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

Best female rock vocalist *EVER*!!!

lonenutnate, Sunday, 30 November 2003 05:16 (twenty-two years ago)

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

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

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

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)

Pac Man Powerpill - Pac Man Powerpill
Pet Shop Boys - Very (the version with the groovy cover art)

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!

___ (___), Thursday, 22 April 2004 21:47 (twenty-two years ago)

i just exonerated Musea on the 'worst label' thread, but hmmm they did let both of those Saint Just albums (and the one great Sensation's Fix album. and St. Tropez?) slip OOP. unforgivable. someone needs to fix this ugly development tout de suite.

who has the rights to Eskaton's '4 Visions'? this is the Best. Magma. LP. (n)Ever. - sorry, Guapo - and there's no good reason for it not to be on the shelves.

echoinggrove (echoinggrove), Thursday, 22 April 2004 21:57 (twenty-two years ago)

Is "Since I Left You" out of print already?

Geir Hongro, Thursday, 22 April 2004 22:04 (twenty-two years ago)

The new Mojo has an ad for remastered versions of the Richard & Lindas with bonus tracks.

And Hip-O is doing a limited/expanded edition of the Howard Tate stuff at www.hipodirect.com.

I would love to see Helen Merrill's 'American Country Songs' on CD.
