I love Dan Hicks! Don't know of a S/T release though, is it Original Recordings?

(Which contains "Milk Shakin' Mama," and any Hicks fans who haven't seen this, you really should:

Hadn't seen that before and it's awesome. Love Dan Hicks, did take me a while to get over the band name though.

I thought "Original Recordings" was a 'false' title, like ZOSO. But I don't know much.

Total Cost: $6 plus tax

Ah man, Tunes in Marlton used to be my shit. Especially when the Philly college stations dropped off their promos and that shit went straight into the 5 for 3 section.

Weird pricing in that place though - I remember once they got some Krautrock stuff in on CD and one Ash Ra CD was like $30, one was $20 and another was in the 5 for 3 bin despite being in perfect shape.

at the LC Store the other day i was buying VHS cos they were 60 cents. i brought a stack of like 12 to the counter and she said oh it's 4 for a dollar.

one of the tapes was something called "MOODTAPES" that has a very Miami Vice looking font on the front and the back has white typeface on black looking like a science book from the 80s or something, with shots of sunsets and timelapse cloud footage. the music is incredible. i'll definitely put it on youtube eventually but i think if i slow it down it may become a chillwave classic.

the tape has a subtitle "Tranquility"

Sounds amazing. PUT THAT SHIT UP!

apologies for the really bad quality and there is a bunch of stuff going on in the background cos i did not use audio in and the camera is messing with the lighting and the tv is all distorted because i used it for a noise instrument for a while. but it really just only makes it more psychedelic.

dope!!

I used to manage Tunes in Hoboken. The pricing was/is based entirely on the going rate on amazon per item. That's why used stuff is all sorts of strangely priced. Funny cause they have the software that adjusts the online listing of the item, but they won't reprice the label until they do like a 6 month aged inventory. Therefore sometimes there ends up being large discrepancies between the in-store price and the online listing of the same item.

a dollar each at the book store around the corner from my house this morning.

Wow, that's a great haul Scott! I love those Adderley titles; some of my favorite stuff of his.

So much great stuff in that buy!

wow. my generous Value Village haul today now looks paltry by comparison.

I always wonder about the backstory of how certain records made it to second-hand shops. Did someone suddenly decide they hate Roxy Music and Art Blakey?

Found an Angus MacLise CD at Goodwill yesterday for $1. Definitely curious how it ended up there.

Did someone suddenly decide they hate Roxy Music

possible they upgraded to the new remastered editions and so cleared out the old editions ?

(i have done this myself a few times over the years)

They're CDs, so they probably ripped them and sold the physical to de-clutter. People don't generally need CDs for anything beyond being backups with liner notes.

Broke people
Dead people
Born again people

possible they upgraded to the new remastered editions and so cleared out the old editions ?

Good point, hadn't considered that.

I know a lot of folks who are transferring all their CDs to files on their computers & dumping the physical media.

Do downloads count? I just bought the mp3 of 'Black Unity' by Pharoah Sanders for £0.79 on amazon.co.uk!

Hey, Adam, thanks for posting the Moodtape. The sounds of domesticity in the background don't hurt at all, ha.

Amazing haul, Scott - what's in the bottom row in the second pic besides Roxy Music? Some Tzadik thing and something with sigils all over it?

And thanks for the info, Evan, figured it was something like that...

No prob!

Speaking of Scott's haul, lets all pretend Sun Kil Moon LPs stopping coming out after 2010.

"Gee Scott, that Sun Kil Moon album is outstanding. Have you heard it? Wonder what ever happened to that guy!"

Yes...

Hey, Adam, thanks for posting the Moodtape.

^^^^^

moodtapes rules. found a better version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YC5b0HE8boY

Makes me wish I had a meditation dome I could project that on

nice! i wonder what the other videos are like...?

Captain Maximus glad you found a better version, my cats were running around like lunatics when i was filming, actually ended up crashing into the camera and that's why there's an edit halfway through mine =)

Maybe Moodtapes universally drive cats crazy? We should all experiment.

ONE DOLLAR each. bookstore around the corner from my house that buys in bulk for their amazon business and then has huge sidewalk sales. great stuff for me and great stuff for the store. i heart dollar CDs.

really digging this cd by a northern chorus. never heard them before.

as in: i'm totally gonna keep this northern chorus cd.

Circle are fun. how come i never listen to Circle?

Lots of things I love in there. Great find!

my pal from another record store was right next to me the whole time. he got just as much good stuff. enough for everybody though.

I really like Lenola a lot but you might not? The Swerving Corpse is super wonky. A Northern Chorus sounds nice. Haven't ever listened to them, or not since 2003 when they would probably come on some early internet radio stations I used to check out. They seem familiar is all.

Wow, Morgen on CD! And for a dollar!

Broken by Whispers! And SmAlLer!
