Trying that again:

I'm finding a lot of crap and a few things I kind of like. Wonder of this is a job for Geir to sort out?

Collin Raye - Extremes CD from 1994

T.S. Monk - House Of Music LP

I love you.

We can post $1 CD purchases on here, right?

Sure!

TS: TS Monk House of Music vs Meredith Monk Dolmen Music

Overall, Meredith. For the greatest single of all-time, T.S. Monk.

Planet Replay on Research, Austin. Entire wall of $1 CDs. Tons of boy band. Passed up that Pimpadelic CD. bad move?

Circuit Sessions 7: Barry Harris - Afterhours Harder Deeper Faster (4 Play 2001)
A Night at the Tunnel (mixed by DJ Jason Ojeda) (Nervous, no yea but the CD booklet is a sticker!!!)
Rigo Star: Attention! (Ima 1998)
Sugar: Beaster (Rykodisc 1993)

Overall, Meredith. For the greatest single of all-time, T.S. Monk.

Sorry, Kevin, but this makes no sense, and carries your delusion about "consistency" to an absurd extreme. Af if Meredith Monk could really make an album as good as THE BEST SONG EVER IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSE (not that I'm saying that, but you did) plus filler. Though oddly, Xgau gave Meredith an A- and TS an B-. And neither album seems to be in his '80s book? How weird is that?

I have a delusion about consistency?

Well, what do you want me to say? Ok sure I'd take House of Music to a desert island because it contains THE BEST SONG EVER IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSE. But I wouldn't be listening much to the rest of the album. And all that wear and tear on just "Bon Bon Vie" might erase the song from my universe forever. Maybe not such a wise choice.

You're in the ratings game. How would you star or letter grade a crap album that just so happened to contain THE BEST SONG EVER IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSE vs. a pretty damn good album, esp. one that DJ Shadow sampled to create the greatest album of the 1990s?

P.S. The House of Music review is in Xgau's 80s book. It's under "T" since T.S. Monk was the name of the band.

I have a delusion about consistency?

a crap album that just so happened to contain THE BEST SONG EVER IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSE

Is an oxymoron. If it's got the best song ever on it, it isn't crap. And the T.S Monk LP, which I just listened to, definitely isn't. It's got a few good pop-disco tracks ("Stay Free Of His Love" and the rock-disco "Hot Night In The City" especially) and pretty ballads that surround "Bon Bon Vie" just fine. "Only one great song" does not equal "crap."

Haven't played the Meredith Monk LP yet (at least since the last time I owned it, a couple decades ago), but I'll be really surprised if I like it more. (And while I love "Bon Bon Vie," I pretty clearly don't love it as much as you do.)

under "T" since T.S. Monk was the name of the band

Ha, I had no idea this was the case. I've always just assumed T.S. was Thelonious Jr's pseudonym, but judging from the notes, you're apparently right. Still don't get why Dolmen Music is missing from the '80s book, though. (I checked under "Meredith" too, by the way, just in case.)

Also; never logged in there here: $2 each, antique/ junk store in Giddings, TX two or three weeks ago:

T Graham Brown - I Tell It Like It Used To Be LP (1986)
Tom T Hall - Homecoming LP (1970)
Tom T Hall - For The People In The Last Hard Town LP (1973)
Billy Joe Royal - The Royal Treatment LP (1987)

See also: Chambers Bros.

Oh right. Well, the Chamber Bros. and T.S. Monk's albums, even at a dollar, are why Napster, etc. was invented (but for what it's worth, I have purchased House of Music twice).

Also, I noticed you sidestepped the more difficult question of what to rate these things.

Still don't get why Dolmen Music is missing from the '80s book, though.

A lot of jazz and new music or new classical or modern music or what Meredith Monk is was left out of the book. But that doesn't explain the jazz and new music, etc. that was left in. I seem to recall a page on his site about it but can't find it now.

what to rate these things

Depends how good they are, just like anything else. Also depends on the rating system. But if we're talking letter grades, a 40-minute LP with one all-time great track of fairly substantial length plus consistently enjoyable if generic filler that elucidates the context the great tracks emerged from would sure seem pretty darn A- to me, in most cases.

"Stay Free Of His Love" and "Hot Night In The City"

These are actually great hard disco tracks in their own right, btw -- maybe not on a level with "Bon Bon Vie," but still dark and propulsive and substantial, not lightweight filler at all. And "Candidate For Love" and "Can't Keep My Hands To Myself" and "House of Music", if lighter and sweeter, are real good as well. This is a solid album; not one song I don't like. (Unlike the Dee Dee Sharp Gamble LP I bought, which as Xgau points out in his review, starts with two great disco burners then a nice soul ballad, but devotes all of side two to show-tuney ickiness. His B grade still underrates it, though; "Breaking And Entering" and "Let's Get This Party Started" are worth the price of admission in their own right. Especially if the price of admission is just $1.)

Ugh don't make me listen to this again.

I got that Gamble record for free when a college radio station was getting rid of all their vinyl. Good price.

Lane Caudell... I'd be at least slightly interested, especially for less than a buck.

Went back to Top Drawer yesterday, but the Caudell LP was gone. Bought this for a buck instead:

Bruce Cockburn - World Of Wonders (MCA, 1986)

Very sad to hear about Caudell, 'cause I can't work up the enthusiasm to go on a quest for it, but will now always be slightly curious. Damn.

nearby low-rent record/baseball card/comic book/sundry collectibles shop was trying to get rid of half their floor space so a new renter could take over. they were letting a bunch of vinyl go at 5 lps FOR A DOLLAR. the vast majority was crap (most of the gems had been moved to the front of the shop and priced accordingly), but I managed to score:

Electric Light Orchestra II
On the Third Day
Eldorado
Face the Music
A New World Record
Out of the Blue
Discovery

...all for 20 cents a piece.

$1 each LPs, three different places: an activist-run thrift store on E. 12th in East Austin yesterday (10 of them), a garage sale in North Central Austin today (3), and again today Recycled Reads (10), which supposedly picked up the entire remaining Austin Public Library LP collection his weekend:

Alpha Band - The Statue Makers of Hollywood (Arista 1978)
Be-Bop Deluxe - Drastic Plastic (Harvest 1978)
Black Rose - Black Rose (Casablanca 1980)
City Boy - Young Men Gone West (Mercury 1977)

Les Dudek - Say No More (Columbia 1977)
Ellen Foley - Nightout (Epic 1979)
Godley & Creme -- History Mix Vol. 1 (Polydor UK 1985) (weird promo-looking black and white cover thing featuring "Cry" and sundry random 10cc tracks but inexplicably not "Neanderthal Man")
Dobie Gray - From Where I Stand (Capitol 1986)
Pearl Harbour - Don't Follow Me I'm Lost Too (Warner Bros. 1980)
John Hiatt - Warming Up To The Ice Age (Geffen 1985)

Jesse Johnson - Shockadelica (A&M 1986)
D.C. Larue - Star Baby (Casablanca 1980) (conceptual disco singer-songwriter genius, includes his cover of "She's About A Mover" by Doug Sahm)
Charles Lloyd - Wearings (Pacific Arts 1978)
The Records - The Records (Virgin 1979)
Linda Ronstadt - Mad Love (Asylum 1980) (her new wave album obviously; if I really love this, I'm going to regret passing up a Cretones LP from 1981)
Shinehead - Troddin' (Elektra 1994)
Smokey - Smokey (MCA 1975)
Chris Spedding - Hurt (RAK UK 1977) (includes his cover of Garland Jeffreys' "Wild In The Streets," which must have also been covered by 50 or 100 other people between 1977 and 1980 or so)
Gary Stewart & Dean Dillon - Brotherly Love (RCA 1982)
Wild Seeds - Mud Lies + Shame (Passport 1988)
Wishbone Ash - Number The Brave (MCA 1981)

That Z.Z. Hill record looks real interesting. Apparently it's a Swamp Dog production concept album. http://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/z_z__hill/the_brand_new_z_z__hill/

I only know him from the great single "Cheatin' in the Next Room" from 1982.

i got two more later city boy records since you were last here.

you gave me a pearl harbour album once!

all of those records you got are such chuck records. i mean, literally now, but you know what i mean.

Yeah, I noticed Swamp Dogg's alter ego name Jerry Williams in the liner notes to that ZZ Hill record; thought it might be a weird one. Hope it is. So far I way prefer Hill's early '80s Malaco stuff (incl "Cheatin In The Next Room" of course) to the late '70s Columbia stuff and late '60s/early '70s indie label stuff I've heard (I've got a couple CD collections), but maybe this album will change that.

Wasn't sure whether I already owned a copy of that Pearl Harbour LP, and the Records one, too, but thought I'd take a chance. Pretty sure I prefer Pearl with the Explosions, though.

No idea why the hell I picked up that Les Dudek album. Guess I liked the cover, and the song titles, or something.

The garage sale guy who sold me the Alpha Band, Smokey, and Dixie Dregs albums also had a bunch of prog and fusion stuff (Rennnaisance, Passport, etc.) and Christian hippie LPs. Considered picking up the 2nd Chapter Of Acts LP he had, but I have no idea which ones of theirs are supposed to be any good, if any. Probably won't make sense out of that Dregs LP (not even "Punk Sandwhich"), since I never make sense out of Dregs LPs, but I'll probably keep trying as long as $1 albums are available, in hopes that one will eventually click. (I know I like the idea of Dixie Dregs.)

Passed up the Dwight Twilley '84 album with "Girls," a Sylvester LP from 1981 (Too Hot To Sleep), an '80s reissue by Shepherds, a '80 or so Carolyn Mas LP, one by Nova Combo, a Van McCoy best-of, lots of things. Really trying to limit myself to 10, at most, per store per trip. Anyway, if anybody in Austin thinks the ones I passed up sound interesting, they're probably still at Recycled Reads for $1 each.

chuck, if you don't already have it, find this for a dollar. you would love it.

Wonderful surprises and Bargains at flea markets

If you want to check out 2nd Chapter of Acts, the ones to go for would be early to mid-seventies where they look like hippie teenagers. In the eighties they were more like ABBA (nothing wrong with that) or something. Well sung and written melodic soft rock all the way through though.

fake edit. I just put on With Footnotes from 1974. It's piano driven soft but big rock with strings. The female vocals are high and sweet and the male vocals are Stevie Wonderish. Closest to Elton John if he was a female harmony act maybe.

The real find is Matthew Ward's (the male singer in 2nd Chapter) first solo album Towards Eternity. Phil Keaggy crunchy hard rock guitars and Ward was a great soulful vocalist. Of course it is Christian as all get out, but in an inspirational way. Along with Keith Green and Daniel Amos, the only Christian music from my childhood that I still have.

2nd Chapter of Acts... With Footnotes from 1974

This is the one he was selling, actually -- oh well. (Just did a Google image search to make sure.)

yer not really missing much with that album. it's pleasant, but that's about it.

this is the dollar xian album that you want. the brits just made better 70's god rekkerds.

How is that Peter Gordon album? I keep meaning to fill out my collection of his stuff, but it's never at the top of my to-do list. His "Yellow Box" thing with the guy from Flying Lizards remains a favorite.

As geeky, moderately rhythmic post-new-wave downtown art-pop goes, not bad. The one track that really makes it a keeper, though, is the one written and sung with Arthur Russell, "That Hat" at the end of Side One, which to me sounds not that far from the three or so Dinosaur L tracks by Russell I've heard.
