I got a couple dozen 45s in DELAWARE this weekend for < $1 a pop including these personal anthems:

and The Box Tops / The Intrigues / David Dundas / Jr Walker / Philly Cream / Johnny Cash / Alice Cooper / Sneakers And Lace / Carol Gregory / The Supremes / The Guess Who / The Bee Gees / Dickie Goodman / Fats Domino / Willie Nathaniel Williams III / Jan Donaway / The Story of Mr. World / The Rhodes Kids / unlabeled calypso [presumably test pressing] / Saltwater Taffy / The Quick / Jerry Jeff Walker / Consumer Rapport / and a couple more

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 :\

http://badcatrecords.com/BadCat/GRIFFIN.htm

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

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.

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..

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 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.

first buying spree in a while... bargain bin record fair purchases.. everything 2 euros..

Reinhard Lakomy - Der Traum von Asgard (electronics) AMIGA
The Orchids - Unholy Soul
Michael Bundt - Just Landed Cosmic Kid
Buari - Buari
And Also The Trees - Green is the Sea
Smog - Burning Kingdom
Primordial Undermind - Yet more wonders of the invisible world
Sarah - Sarah and Friends
Throwing Muses - University
Cardiacs - On Land and In the Sea
Richard Wahnfried - Time Actor
Biff Bang Pow! - Oblivion
Peter Green - The end of the game.

pretty pleased with my haul...

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

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...

joe south s/t rules. "for the love of a woman" is my jaaaaaammmm.

also, please to tell me what the fuck is up with vandy because clearly i need it...

vandy, valdy, whatever. i'm drinking beers at the shop, what do you want?

oh nvrmnd, valdy is that canuck dude. i have a strict no canada policy. he has like 37 records, is this one actually good? I DONT BUY IT WHAT HAS CANADA EVER DONE?

sell me your machine head, tho

i bought 7 records today. they are all terrible, even the kevin coyne one.

the valdy ian mentioned is really good. his first album. country man.

sun ra -- lanquidity

BEST BUYING FREEZE EVER

lemme give credit where credit is due -- moe handy's timely txts have made it a truly sick week

lol you guys

yeah, valdy ain't half bad! some of the songs are even really good!

got a nice copy of this today. out of the back of some dude's car:

it's an ian kinda thing, but i like it too.

i bought like 30 blues/r&b/gospel/soul 45s & 78s at the flea market this AM but i'm mostly stoked about this little bit of ephemera that came with them.

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.

nice! need that doris d.

i didn't know that pete. i sold my copy to a friend just last month.

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.

friend gave me a sealed copy of JEREMY today.

7" or 12"?

man using "yellow ledbetter" as the end credits music was one of my favorite things about that movie YOUNG ADULT

NO PETE... THIS RECORD
