Halp! Record shopping in Sydney

sysfunk said:I visited Revolve Records today, the staff was very friendly and pointed out some nice Aussie records for me. Picked up Renee Geyer albums from '75 and '77 and Marcia Hines, the very basic stuff I guess!





I also went to Egg Records and found it to be a bit pricey. Could not resist getting Marlena Shaw's Who's That Bitch Anyway? LP, it's been on my wantlist for a long time.





Also spotted the Hive Bar, see you there tomorrow - dunno when I should be there though?




Good to hear you made it to revolve. Nice ppl there, most of the staff are avid collectors and got that love for music we all do.





Yo, we'll be at the Hive from around 430pm. Just give me a call when your heading up, Im gonna be down the road at another little happening.





Looking forward to having some beers and a spliff with you and talking rekkids.... :-)





Hey NZ Shadow- that shop you talk about is still around, one of the boys in my crew lives around the corner and he's always pulling out mad stufff from there at good prices too.

Looking forward to it as well! I should be there sometime between 5 and 6 pm ... need to finish doing some stuff before. I'll send you a text when I'm on the way, it's the best way as the roaming fees are quite high for me here!
 
Hey man - good to meet ya. Drop me a line if there's more stuff on the blog that you dig or want info on. I'll be down at Hive again next week spinning in the arvo so feel free to drop by with some records if you wanna hang out.

Thanks! Also, a big thank you to you and LokoOne for a nice afternoon at the Hive bar. It was much needed after weeks of anglo-saxon suburbia. ;)





You mean in the afternoon next Sunday? Trevor also mentioned that there's open decks on Wednesday as well.
 
Oh yeah, and thanks one more time to LokoOne for the records and Kinetic for supplying some RAER.





I checked out the records on discogs, and surprise surprise, some of the Finnish diggers I know already got them (Marcia Hines, Daly-Wilson Big Band) - hell, they've probably played them on the Finnish radio already. :)





Looking forward to listen to them at home!

Yeah man, I don't usually head down on wed since it's a school night, but I'll be there again this Sunday from 4-6pm. If you're around again drop in and chat to Peter at revolve - i co-host a weekly radio show with him that airs tomorrow from 1:30-3pm on 2SER 107.3 FM.
 
Bump. I m in Australia this week, mostly Sydney but also Brisbane and Melbourne. Guess the recordshops havent changed much, what about some good food joints? Also if any of you guys play some nice bars etc.. let me know!


Oh, and i remember some antique store somewhere near kings cross where i came up with some nice records, anyboy know this one? is it still around?
