I found this in a clearance bin over the weekend. It is listed as "hard rock" on Discogs. It goes all over the place. I feel like the band didn't know which direction they wanted to focus on and recorded a bunch of different styles and each track sounds completely different than the last. The title track is great though.

not bad for 50 cents each

I'll say! That Webs is a favorite of mine. It was used in a Killer Mike track last year.

I went for an X-mas haircut in the city and ended up with these. There is a 2nd hand / antique store that has a room of records and comics and I was instantly greeted by the Issue of Big Daddy I needed to complete my collection. Looks like a digguer had sold some of his collection and ended up with a nice little haul. They were shop prices so not for pennies but very reasonable. Bargain was the reggae comp for a fiver with the Nairobi Sisters.

I think this is the first time I have ever copped any records from FB marketplace. A set sale that I wanted for the SSO Band, which doesn't crop up all that much down here in Sydney. The rest will go into the trade, sell pile.

Do you already have the Energy to Burn LP, its got some on it.

 

[kicks79]

Yes, already got Energy to Burn, it's a classic!

I’ve got that Webs track on 7” but it’s a different label IIRC.
Edit: checked on ‘cogs, I have the white label (promo?). Damn it’s got expensive! Think I snagged mine for about £20. 50 cents is amazing.

Jazz and Brazilian pickups from the swap meet in the Arts District and local store after checking out the Alice Coltrane exhibit at the Hammer Museum this weekend.

Haha...reminds me of the gag in "Airplane!" where the Mayo Clinic has jars of the condiment on the shelves in the doctor's office.

Good stuff over the past few weeks.

Damn, that is a solid haul. How is that Elizeth? She has a staggering body of work.

 

[Electrode]

She averaged one record per year, this one from '74. I buy these samba records so I can follow the lyrics in Portuguese to help me learn.

Spring 2025 Austin Record Convention Finds.

I hosted a house party on Thursday before ARC again. I think around 75 people showed up. Some guy named Josh showed up with a nice box of 45s.

Bill always finds the most interesting, obscure 80s stuff!

Is this code for a famous 45 collector called Josh, or just some dood?
