Looks like Dusty Groove raided the Tribune Company

[white_tea]

Did they snag WGN's archives or just the Chicago Tribune's promo stuff? Not sure. In any event, looks like an OK haul.

From their Facebook page:

+/- 80 boxes of records and the best shit you have to floss is bjorn jayson lindh and masterfleet? i am grueled just thinking about it.

give me a haul of that many records in one go and I'll be as happy as a pig in shit for days...............regardless of whether I come up or no

I'm no big aficionado of Brazilian music, but I didn't know that Jorge Ben had an LP released in the US in the sixties.





I see his LP is on the Four Corners label, which was Kapp's "world music" subsidiary...

I wouldn't expect anything too raer, but it looks like a great???and fairly comprehensive???listening collection.

Could be some amazing shit in there. who knows. I wonder how much they dropped for it

Bowie, Common People, Duncan Browne raers, looks pretty respectable to me!

He has at least two.

Hells Belles OST is alright. Maybe no "mythical private press raers", but not 80 boxes of straight chud either, from the little I see.

Not to stir up any inter-web gossip or anything....but i bet Craig Morer is a bit jealous of this haul.


Seems like the kind of thing that he should have been onto.

Well for store stock that looks like a pretty good haul just from those few pics. I'm sure they haven't even touched the surface on all of those boxes either.

 

[Oligee]

Perhaps there is a certain bell-less record in there...

well there's a difference between good store stock and chud stock. the stuff they posted is the type of stuff that will likely sell fast.

For a shop. On a whole, you'll likely sell 20 $5.00 records a hell of a lot quicker than 1 $100 record.

The average price per record in those photos is about $50, and several of those titles kick ass.





Next time your being "grueled" like that, let me know and I'll take over.

Nice One!

Yeah, I would guess those were albums sent to the Tribune to be reviewed? In that case they'd likely be promo copies that have only been played a few times at most.
