Thanks for hipping me with this. I'm three episodes in and enjoying it greatly, listening on the daily commute. I am getting strange looks from my fellow commuters, as every second track or so makes me do a stank face :facemelt: . It's a shame so much of it is unreleased material.

Lord Sear ... only 53

It's been quiet this year so far, so this is the last haul before the end of the year. Found a ton of reggae joints, Yellowman, Horace Andy, Jackie Mitto, Tappa Zukie ect. Speaking to the owner of the store, he told me that all these came from a DJ who had passed away, and his brother was...

Thanks Ketan! Oh Damn Electrode, that sounds painful. Get better, homie. Booze can really mess up your life. My brother-in-law nearly drank himself to death this year. Thankfully, a near-death experience seems to have straightened him out. Klemzer, you're bucking the trend; everyone seems to...

I made some real-world moves in 2025. Got married and moved ( 35 boxes of records, something I'm not in any rush to have to do again). Looking forward to hopefully some international travel and record digging in 2026. Happy New Year, everyone.

Oh crazy, I tried to join last year and never got a response. Guess it's time to re-read all the waxi vs strut beef threads in the archives.

I don't recall seeing too many of DW2 in the wild. A mate hipped me to it about 20 years ago, and this is the first time I've seen a copy. It's not expensive, just does not turn up. I think it sold poorly, bitd. Death Wish one is awesome!

The latest: Death Wish 2 - Jimmy Page doing 80's synth type stuff with only a few shredding guitar tracks. Cold Blooded - classic cover of the Meters, i already have this, but this was a super clean promo Blackbyrds - classic mizzel brothers and donald byrd production Cal Tjader & Eddie...

I went to listen to this the other day, and I must have sold it and forgotten. I do have the three or four 12" singles from it. I will have to content myself with those.

I'm still constantly amazed at the archival wealth of knowledge on this site.

A few things this week: Larry Page Rampage, sampled by Dilated, Sherbet, Aus Rock with a break used by Paul Nice on breaks for days, Dr Buzzard ala Ghost. Mid 70s Muddy. Tough cuban salsa from Fruko. Wansel i think i have doubles of now. Valerie Simpson for Silly, wasn’t I sampled by everyone.

Just a couple this week. Still sealed reissues of some black jazz titles and they are smoking. I don’t really buy reissues much, but seeing as the prices of these are high and you rarely see the OG I thought why not. Coverless Roy Ayers & Fela Kuti enough said. Late 70s Curtis, a little disco...

Mud foot is so close to Chapelle's Mud butt! :ohmy:

Lo Borges, 2025 is really sucking...

some latest finds: that Judy Roberts is dope, been a 45 reissued from that album. Nice to have that Bobbi lp in decent condition. Hank Crawford is a little ehh. Tania is 80s deodato produced…feeling it
