That is a nice score. I'm especially tickled by the Everclear jukebox 45. What even were the 90s? Everclear on 45. The fuck.

I got a kick out of that too. And I thought an orange Ren & Stimpy 45 was peak 90s oddity.

I didn't expect to see that one mixed in thousands of mostly country 45s.

I gave this a good listen yesterday for the first time. Before I was only familiar with the first one but I lost the CD years ago. Condition? Found in Texas, I assume.
Yes, I found it in Beaumont, TX. It's a really strong VG+. There's a slight mark on one side but otherwise looks glossy. I'll probably end up selling it at the next Austin Record Convention. I have a mono copy of Psychedelic Sounds and a copy of Bull of the Woods also but they are both rough.
A majority of these are Christmas gifts. The first three Brazilian records are reissues, of course. I'm fortunate to have friends who are on my same wavelength. "Alan Parsons Project" is their "debut" (/Dr. Evil). Hummingbird is Bernard Purdie with Jeff Beck's crew. Rare Bird has one of the best Morricone versions I have heard. I saw Andrea Centazzo play with his trio at a local universalist church last week. It was real solid of him to sell me his last copy and to throw in some of his "best of" sampler CDs from his Ictus label. He even signed an bio insert on an Italian jazz comp I found in the dollar bin a few years back. Also pictured is Bayete's auto, who I also met recently.
I just got back after spending four days in São Paulo, which is not enough. MoogMan, who used to post here years ago, accompanied me at a shopping center across the street from the Municipal Theater which has almost an entire second floor dedicated to record shops. Unfortunately, there is only so much time and so much cash. The Lô Borges is the '87 second press but preferable to the original that was going for five times as much. Plus it includes a ticket for a concert-in-the-park of his from July 27, 1986 (hope I have nothing planned that night! haha) a previous owner left in there.
I went on a week long trip driving Texas Route 67 across Texas from Texarkana to Presidio with a bunch of VW friends. I didn't have much time to dig for records but was able to stop a couple times in thrift stores. These are the highlights.

This has caused a bit of a stir in soul circles lately,
originally a cover version of a Motown song, Marvin Gaye and Four Tops did versions.
But was also cut by 'Jimmy McFarland on RPR records, a good west
coast label. Turns out the Steve Benson the producer had put it out locally on
Strictly Soul Summit label, which loads of us had never seen before. Then it
turns out that Betty Willis - Gone with the wind (Is My love also came out on
that label, post Mojo records. Thats a collectable label with two super rarities... anyhow, gaze in wonder, it's a real nice label this one...
