What's your ULTIMATE vinyl "WANT" ?? Grail of all Grails.

Relatively Clean Rivers - It pops up once or twice a year, but I can't afford its going rate.


Merkin Manor - Ditto.
 
i don;t know if this is an "ultimate want" but i really would like a copy of "geedy dayaan"




U.S. Warren???s For A Few Funky Dues More (instrumental soul-blues album from ???72 or ???73)




i picked up the "hard headed woman" 7" for cheep during the last SS fundraiser. love it. i've never heard the whole album, but it must be quality!
 
Scorpio & His People 45... but considering both copies are spoken for, that'll never happen!

Yeah, I dunno how many actually... the italics were out of frustration ;-)

Don't give up, I found this in the field in California.

Nowadays very hard, as all the Brazilan dealers/collectors are aware of the album.


Late 90s it was still one of the more difficult LPs to turn up, but could be had for a good price if located (only managed to find 3 copies all the time of digging in Brazil, but luckily all of them were all M-/VG++ condition).





The reissue vinyl recording is not all that good according to a few friends who have it, any thoughts on that!
 
Chan, can't remember if I told you my Verocai story... I was at this dude's house in Rio in '99, high-rise apartment building in Botafogo overlooking a favela. The inside of the apartment was more or less wall-to-wall records. Playing all kinds of stuff, he gave me a few nice Marcos Valle LPs as a present like it was no big thing. Dude puts on the Verocai record and after about 10 minutes of facemelt I sit up enough to ask, hey, what is this, you got an extra copy I can trade for? He shrugs and nonchalantly tells me that it's "kind of rare". Oh okay. Until Ubiquity reissued it years later I always wondered what the hell it was.

I don't think I really have any grails, just sort of take them as they come, maybe this I guess, it'd be cool to find the mythical 3rd or 4th copy in the field.

Cover must be Vg++ to EX (no sticker).

I don't really have any ultimate wants, but damn, some of the rarer, and good, Brit Jazz would find a warm and welcoming home with me....

VG+/Waxi bloke Folkishienne opened my ears to a whole new wants list.





On the subject of home-grown stuff, there's plenty of rare prog/folk/funk/rock stuff from Britain that I'd love too.
