[pencilface]

some recent guff - - probably my lot for the month, as i'm stoney broke (as always!)

Top left is a total one-tracker... but what a track!!! exactly the sort of mental german funk i loves!!
dead pleased to finally get a copy of SADOWSKI's "na Kosmodromie" - -lovely stuff, if a bit tatty!
really enjoying the JOHN RENBORN. alot.
i think i sold this copy of TIGER B SMITH to plastic wax, btu it was cheap and i couldnt remember how it sounded so i bought it again

ROMUALD & ROMAN (mental polish beat that is fairly psychedelic and quiet and meanders about the place. a-side i nparticular is amazing)
top right is a limited reissue of two great french-beat tracks - an affordable way to get hold of one of the great CLOTHILDE tracks
LUV MACHINE - "witches wand" (there sems to have been a box of minty ones discovered recently as there's been loads about for less than the previous going rate. suits me, great song that ive been after for a bit)
ROOSEVELT FOUNTAIN - "red pepper" (ace groovy organ tity-shaker funk stuff.)
VARIATIONS - "i was down" (definately oen of their better tunes.)
thought i should nab the FK release to keep me going unti li've got some money for the "sounds of wonder" comp...

the HENDRIX has a few nice funky tunes (with some ace open breaks in the left-channel if you change the balance on the stereo!!)
the JACK JONES has an amazing version of "spinning wheel". really.

Highlights from the past week.

And thanks to meaty ogre for hooking this one up:

End of the week - brought home some piles of spoken word, foreign, funky, jazzy and simply weird from the library. Most were covered with a bulletproof plastic cover, and hardly played. Here is a shot of some spoken word high lights. Literature:

Dolphins, Cowboys, Baum, Nin -- a step up from my usual spoken word finds.

African-American oriented spoken word (and a lil' native american). Actually I got a couple of dozen native american song and spoken discs in this find, but can't find that photo.

Some more library finds: Charles Dodge and everything around the edges. Also in here is an Al Green record and a Rolling Stones 45. I found them right after a visit to the eye doctor and they put dilating drops in my eyes. I had planned to wait the drops out by digging for records in the two charity shops near the doctors.

I arrived to discover that I was totally freaking blind at close range and could barely make out LP covers, let alone read the little print on 45s. I could make out the Al Green because of the 'strutter's avatar. And the stones 45 looked positively clear . . . hmm.

Finally - this morning I hit a dozen yard sales. Quite a few records, but only one that compelled a purchase. A damaged 2 story victorian estate sale whose boxes included a life history of a folk fan. Almost all of the records were obviously carefully handled, and the sleeves were almost all damaged. Folkies!

But some fun records in there. And an MPS George Duke, and a Bennie Maupin record? I'll take em.

check the photo of the cover, dude is being such a show off on one of those "look i got a raer record for $1 and trying to flip it" tips-

, but great find dude!

WHOA!!

Wait a second....is there TWO peressings of this LP?

I plainly remember photos of the dude in NYC on his chopper being on the back cover....or was that an insert??
I thought I remembered this correctly....here is the back cover on the copy I saw.

Oh fudge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[discos_alma]

Oh fudge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A****n,

is the tracklist on the back of this the same as your copy?

Or was there another Carlos Ramos LP?

 

[age]

By the looks of it...NO!!!! I just took these photos right now and by the track listing on that one, it looks switched (both tracks #2 on each side)
"P.V." & "Cuento de Barrio"..What a bug out, any one got a scan of the other labels? I have the color label.(orange & yellow flames). The other label is red & white(I think).Could be a typo?!!?

You should post something else uninformative and unfunny because you are on a life long role with these.

King Max, if you want to flip that dolphin record I'd be interested.

Stuff from this week:

Lucifer's Friend-- st
Beggar's Opera--Act One
Fat Mattress-- st
Fat Mattress-- II
Nektar--14 Down to Earth
Ginger Baker--Eleven Sides of Baker
Jack Nitszche--St Giles Cripplegate
Philip Glass--Einstein on the Beach
Shadows--Live double
Gregorian chant box set on Everest (really nice label, as in the sticker on the record)
Oud and Harp music of the Near East
Koto record on Lyrichord

Came across a box of records on the curb, and there was already another dude in them. Found some weirdo stuff, just randomness with samples, after he went through them. He claims to have a bunch of brazilian records to sell, but I haven't followed up yet.

Tuesday morning. Eight a.m. automobile repair. Hours of waiting and the rough price tag. Thrift store next door with 12 records for a buck -- a necessary antidote.

Honestly, the price tag might be steep. This place is the record location that I think about whenever I read the Boners thread. Miles of religious, christmas, and the just plain old wretched. It's sort of diggers hell.

Mystically -- there are hundreds of 45's today. It looked like someone had racked the singles section of my junior year in high school. Pop, metal, and a handful of hip hop 45s, all from 88-90.

I bought a giant pile just for nostalgia sake. And a *mint* copy of Jimmy Swaggart's 16rpm "What the bible says about drugs." Trillionaire.
