I meant to write that I left behind a bunch of late 70's funky jazz and prog records. It was odd finding those records at that goodwill. they only had a few records out and I asked the lady if they happen to have more records and she left me look at these tubs of records some guy had brought in. Lots of soft machine, Hawkwind, Mountain. I almost bought everything, but I'm trying very hard to scale back my record buying. She said he told her he's going to bring more in this week so we'll see.

you should have bought it all. you can always trade hawkwind and soft machine records! great stuff though. my heart would have been fluttering.
― scott seward, Thursday, 25 July 2013 00:01 (eleven years ago) link
i mean they are a dollar a piece right?
they were .79! I should go back, right?
― JacobSanders, Thursday, 25 July 2013 00:03 (eleven years ago) link
yeah go back jacob! we'll all chip in to buy em all!
― 69, Thursday, 25 July 2013 00:04 (eleven years ago) link
OMG 79 CENTS
oof, yes.

curbing your record buying only counts if you are paying top $$$$ for stuff and need to check yourself. friggin' thrift store bounty is another thing all together.

It's just that since coming to Oklahoma, I've bought around 150 records, maybe more I dunno, and add that to all of the baby related items, moving which will happen in a few months will be tricky.

now you sound more like a can DON'T kind of guy instead of a can DO kinda guy.

other than finally getting a decent copy of an elevators album my fave thing to get this year might be the parasites of the western world album. i'd never heard it. its even been reissued! on de stijjjjllll. so amazing. really my kinda thing. perfect copy with poster and insert and everything. also finally got a copy of the affinity album on paramount. i like that one a bunch. and i FINALLY found a record on Playboy Records that i LOVE. mostly i hate that label. Brownstone. never seen it. just fills me with joy. so amazing.

playboy is the worst label of all-time. second is wooden nickel. like, in terms of sheer overwhelming percentage of absolute garbage, i don't think any other major labels of the 60s/70s come close.
― moe handy, Thursday, 25 July 2013 18:42 (eleven years ago) link
Olivia, maybe. even Olivia had 3 or 4 solid feminist funk jams.
― scott seward, Thursday, 25 July 2013 21:47 (eleven years ago) link
seriously, the brownstone album rules.
sealed copy with no bids:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/vtg-sealed-BROWNSTONE-LP-funk-blues-rock-playboy-records-1973-/350840497921?pt=Music_on_Vinyl&hash=item51afb92701
if anyone out there likes seriously wailing heavy funk rock with strong female vocals a la lynn carey, this album is for you.
but maybe nobody here needs that in their life.
― scott seward, Thursday, 25 July 2013 21:50 (eleven years ago) link
but, five days left. maybe the budding deejay shadows and peanutbutterwolves are all over the brownstone album. i have no idea what it sells for.
― scott seward, Thursday, 25 July 2013 21:51 (eleven years ago) link
Jacob I will pay you double your cost for those thrift records ;) I'll even pay you for shipping! I really need a copy of Space Ritual... Anyway, I bet you could sell them all to us ILV types, saving you the trouble of moving them.

Found a copy of the Little Sister 45 that I didn't have. The Sly Stone-produced group - they had two 45s. "You're the One" is the one I just got - I had the other one.
― timellison, Monday, 29 July 2013 04:43 (eleven years ago) link
that has somebody's watching you, right?
― 69, Monday, 29 July 2013 17:52 (eleven years ago) link
There are some different versions. There's a "You're the One" single that has part two of the song on the flip. The other one I've got is "Somebody's Watching You"/"Stanga," which is really good.

Is there another record fair on the horizon? I've been kind of fizzled out on buying records lately... I guess that is fine because my budget has been going into fun weekend trips all summer.
I did happen to find Giant Sand - Long Stem Rant for $3 recently.
― Evan, Wednesday, 31 July 2013 14:12 (eleven years ago) link
there's another brooklyn flea record fair in october, so i guess thate's still a ways away.
― i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Wednesday, 31 July 2013 15:21 (eleven years ago) link
total score on giant sand!
Ya! It's a great record. I was stoked.

gonna be a feeding frenzy, like cabbage patch kids and tickle me elmos on christmas eve.since it's organized by label i'm assuming most ppl are gonna rush straight for Blue Note and Prestige, but hell, there are lots of great places to go..
― i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Thursday, 1 August 2013 14:25 (eleven years ago) link
I'm debating trying it out but yeah it's gonna be ridiculous. the first sale session is on my birthday!
― dmr, Thursday, 1 August 2013 16:33 (eleven years ago) link
happy birthday! your birthday is my wedding anniversary!

if u go on the first day, try and find me! i will be the guy looking in the old homestead & shanachie sections.
Oh shit can you browse Yazoo for me? There is no way I can get there on Thursday. Friday and Saturday probably aren't going to matter at all.
― Evan, Thursday, 1 August 2013 19:15 (eleven years ago) link
yazoo is gonna be one of my first stops tbh.
― i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Thursday, 1 August 2013 19:22 (eleven years ago) link
hah when I read your earlier message about "lots of great labels to look at" I thought "Homestead"
so yes if I go I would see you there and we can fight over things ;)
― dmr, Thursday, 1 August 2013 22:10 (eleven years ago) link
man, if that shit's arranged by labels i would go to the MISC label section first...
also, ian meant "old homestead" which is quite a different beast, entirely.

haha. yeah. i don't know if i need any regular on "new" homestead! just more poorly msatered bluegrass and oldtimey reissues.
― i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Thursday, 1 August 2013 22:46 (eleven years ago) link

― i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Friday, 2 August 2013 01:57 (eleven years ago) link
Really excited to see what you guys unearth. I'm sure going the two last days are going to be no different than browsing dollar bins at any old store.
