i am so cheap that a dollar still feels like a lot for a single, but I guess it really isn't that much in 2013 if it's in good condition

hell broke loose in georgia: georgia fiddle bands 1927-1934
chuck johnson - crows in the basilica
old mother hippletoe: rural and urban children's songs

Hell broke loose in Georgia is all killer. Katy did by Lowe stokes and mike whitten is one if the best fiddle records ever made. Plus the Georgia crackers and shores trio. Sooooo good

i bought close to 50 records yesterday from paul major. still going through them. some will be sold and some will be kept. so far the keepers are these --

duster bennet - justa duster (used to own this -- one song i REALLY Like and then some average-to-good whiteboy blues)
alan james eastwood s/t (a lilllll produced but the songs are good)
billy roberts & grits - thoughts of california (obscure rural rock)
VALDY s/t (country rock, cover is a photo of the mans head growing out of a tree.)
marian henderson - cameo (raer aussie acid volk)
2x later albums by medicine head. these are not as good as their best stuff (the "dark side of the moon" album imo) but still have a cpl songs that are good. not worth selling really, no one cares.

i had high hopes for a record by GRIFFIN on Romar, cuz it looked like country rock or rural rock or something but it's way too funky for me :\

maybe i should relisten, i didn't listen to much of it at all cuz it sorta sucked. i would like to hear the neil young cover anyway

i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Thursday, 23 May 2013 23:53 (eleven years ago) link

i really like that valdy album. think i listed it on here somewhere.

scott seward, Thursday, 23 May 2013 23:53 (eleven years ago) link

also everything was a dollar.
i need to go back. i put back a bunch of mediocre christian folk cuz i was running out of room in my bags to carry stuff home.

i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Thursday, 23 May 2013 23:55 (eleven years ago) link

valdy cover reminds me of the gentle giant cover.. lemme see if there's a pic online

alllllso keepers i forgot to mention - both dayle stanley albums. i had the first one but this copy is nicer... apparently "after the snow" is super raer? sells for money anyway. this copy is pretty scuffy and noisy but it's better than paying a lot of money for something i'll only listen to once every 5 years..

i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Thursday, 23 May 2013 23:58 (eleven years ago) link

lol apparently sometimes the dayle stanley rekkerd sells for $20 and sometimes for $100... weird. nothing in the middle.

medicine head rules. at least one of their songwriters does. some kinda low-rent crazyhorse west coast sounds.

keeping joe south s/t... never heard this one. is great so far. '71.

i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Friday, 24 May 2013 00:10 (eleven years ago) link

i feel like my senses are off. i don't like most of these so far:

Tight Fit - The Lion Sleeps Tonight / Rhythm, Movement, and Dancing
The Quick - To Prove My Love / Rhythm of the Jungle
Leisure Process - Cashflow / The Emigré 2
Fun Fun - Happy Station
Grace Jones - The Apple Stretching / Nipple To The Bottle
Human League - The Lebanon / Thirteen
Alla Pugacheva - How disturbing is this way
The Tarney / Spencer Band - Three's A Crowd
Ian Matthews - Stealin' Home
Fletch OST
Jethro Tull - Thick As A Brick
The Untouchables - Dance Party
Catspaw - Emerald Web
The Screaming Blue Messiahs - Totally Religious
Belt Junior High School Ninth Grade Mixed Choruses And Choraleers & Seventh And Eighth Grade Chorus - Pheb And Zipp (With A Little Help From Their Friends)
John Wayne - America, Why I Love Her
Ian Thomas Band - Goodnight Mrs. Calabash
4 Out Of 5 Doctors - s/t

I feel like something's off, I don't really like a lot of these so far. For example, The Untouchables - I was pretty excited about this one, I figured Stiff Records, Jerry Dammers, this has to be good. It actually blows. And The Quick - I got "Zulu" earlier this month, and it's great, but this other single is just not my thing right now.

Stop the tape I got spittle all over my moustache. (Talcum Mucker), Saturday, 25 May 2013 17:45 (eleven years ago) link

The Bundt record for 2 euros?! I'd be pretty pleased too!
How's the Lakomy? Love his Das Geheime Leben album.

willem, Monday, 27 May 2013 08:39 (eleven years ago) link

Yeah.. the vinyl is near mint, the only problem with the sleeve is there's a some scuffing on the spine... Not that i'm planning on selling it..

The Lakomy is not as good as Das Geheime Leben, there's some great abstract/abrasive electronics at the beginning of side one, and the drum machines are great, but there's a little bit too much cheesy chord action for my taste...

haha. there's a bunch of really good thrifts in the bay because there are a shitload of good records here. the problem is that there's also a shitload of grippers. i happened to hit the salvation army right as it opened. i guarantee these would not have lasted the day there (maybe not even the morning).

moe handy, Wednesday, 29 May 2013 21:48 (eleven years ago) link

dmr, you can have it dude. holler at me. ian dot hetzner at gmail dot com.

I picked up Doris Duke "I'm a Loser" as well as a nice clean copy of The Harder They Come Soundtrack (from a dollar bin!) among a couple of other things last weekend.

Trip Maker, Monday, 3 June 2013 18:37 (eleven years ago) link

69, Monday, 3 June 2013 18:48 (eleven years ago) link

Oh I also got a copy of Toni Basil's "Word of Mouth." I didn't realize that her Devo covers actually feature Devo backing her up.

Trip Maker, Monday, 3 June 2013 20:58 (eleven years ago) link

i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Monday, 3 June 2013 21:15 (eleven years ago) link
