2013 scores

More people enjoying the gift = success, not secret failure :)

I have scored nothing recently, but I did get an old Church record (Blurred Crusade) in perfect condition. That was nice.

i'm skipping work today because of 'exhaustion' (actual) but might rally and dig for my own vinyl today

The Ex & Brass Unbound - Enormous Door (as great as expected)
Captain Beefheart - Unconditionally Guaranteed ($2, why not)
Pharoah Sanders - Love Will Find A Way (uh oh, keyboards... haven't listened yet)
Don Cherry - Tibet
Six Organs Of Admittance - Shelter From The Ash

I've been buying lots of lounge records, private soft rock records and odd vanity records. I'm going to list them here soon, or maybe just take photos of them, some really beautiful covers.

mostly ones you like jacob? any real standouts for us soft-rock dilettantes?

I like all of them, some only have a few really great songs, but those few songs make the record for me. Then again I'm a big fan of Bread and Ambrosia. I'm recording a mix of soft rock/ blue eyed soul rock that I'm almost finished with.

Bread rules

i love bread and ambrosia. i'm probably more of a fan of prog ambrosia than pop ambrosia though. though i like their pop stuff fine.

a couple of cheapies:

sid selvidge - portrait
the shacklefords - until you've heard the shacklefords you ain't heard nothin' yet

Husker Du - New Day Rising
Third Ear Band - Live Raga 2LP (so excited to jam this tonight)

i got Best of Bread as a bar mitzvah present, January 1974.

still my fave bread song. i almost never listen to bread.

Sweet used vinyl, $20 total

nathan bowles - a bottle, a buckeye
william tyler - behold the spirit
ray price - night life

love that william tyler.

The Return of the Durutti Column (black textured issue, so happy to have this on LP)
Lindsey Buckingham - Law and Order

my wife conspired with the good dude pete to give me the gift of record digging on father's day. SO RAD of both of them. thanks, 69!

i love bread and ambrosia. i'm probably more of a fan of prog ambrosia than pop ambrosia though. though i like their pop stuff fine.

(i never would have guessed from their later radio hits that there ever was a "prog Ambrosia")

Wow I never knew they were a real prog band, my daughter and I loved that song.

I found this today for a dollar!!!

Holy crap!

Good shape?

The cover is VG++ and record has a few light scuffs and could use a good cleaning.

i traded a pile of assorted stuff i'd picked up and got some "new" releases --

v/a - imaginational anthem vol. 6 (have abt half of this on records or 78s already but i do love my some guitar pickin)
v/a - turn me loose: outsiders of old-time music (white country artists playing material outside the standard repetoir or with unique instrumentation etc. again, had a bit of this, but i can't get enough fiddlin.)
glenn jones - my garden state
blaze foley - cold cold world
lore connors - departing of a dream

glenn jones - my garden state
boards of canada - tomorrow's harvest

missed on the limited edition glenn jones w/the postcards unfortch

They are neat but it isn't a huge lose, honestly.

i didn't get the postcards either. that's life, i guess.

What do you think of the record, though?

i'm listening to it now for the first time; love it so far!

The recording is so rich. I love the track with the thunder storm and "Bergen County Farewell" is probably my favorite song of the year so far.

don't miss seeing him live if you get the chance.

gonna see him on he 4th of july!
saw him a year or two ago with p.g. six, great gig.

I was going to go to that show as well, but I had to take tickets for the Feelies show at Maxwell's the same night. Too significant of a show to miss, given I didn't have choice of nights any longer and it will be one of a few last-time-evers at the club.

Care Of The Cow - I Still Don't Know Your Style (so good)
Lula Cortes & Ze Ramalho - Paebiru 2LP (reissue)
Lee Ranaldo - From Here to Infinity

Neil Young - Rust Never Sleeps
Mike Oldfield - Hergest Ridge

got this today. really dig it. ian/jacob kinda thing.

that looks good! does he have a band or is it just him and his geetar?

mostly just him and guitar. but a couple of tracks have other people playing. andy pratt. robin batteau. recorded in 1971, but put out in 1974. really nice guitar sounds. and legitimately "stoner folk". very nice.

ah.. there's a japanese cd, so it must be good ;)

Robin Batteau is cool. I think I'd like that record,

buncha scores soon en route from DC/NC. cant wait!!!!

went to a guy's house around the corner to look at records and he had this and i really wanted it but he wouldn't sell it:

made me a little sad. such a cool record. he said if he ever decided to sell it he'd let me know.

i did get this from him which is pretty good:
