i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Thursday, 1 August 2013 19:22 (eleven years ago) link

if u go on the first day, try and find me! i will be the guy looking in the old homestead & shanachie sections.

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.

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.

los blue jeans, Monday, 5 August 2013 03:25 (eleven years ago) link

These are all from the same Goodwill over two trips, I'll try to stop back again to see what else they've put out:

Javier Vazquez Y Su Salsa - "Javier"
Justo Betancourt - s/t
Yolanda Del Rio - Se Me Olvido Otra Vez
Heleno - s/t
Los Hijos Del Ray con Fernandito Villalona
Sonora Ponceña‎ - Tiene Pimienta
Vicentico Valdes - Amor Y Felicidad
Tito Puente - Homenaje A Beny

los blue jeans, Monday, 5 August 2013 03:37 (eleven years ago) link

Those look really great! I have the Mach 2 Air Force record, it's ok, sort of. Is 1 decent?

JacobSanders, Monday, 5 August 2013 03:39 (eleven years ago) link

ehh, not that great really. I mean, if it was a free concert in a park somewhere I would probably be like "passable ABACAB cover" but not something anyone really needs to listen to

Yolanda Del Rio is awesome, Vicentico Valdes is great too, produced by noted swanky cat LeRoy Holmes

los blue jeans, Monday, 5 August 2013 04:14 (eleven years ago) link

also got HIGH MOUNTAIN HOEDOWN record on atco for me. ruralpsychssw. never heard it.

scott seward, Thursday, 8 August 2013 02:44 (eleven years ago) link

everything so clean. just bag it and tag it. old store stock. from some old boston folkie store.

scott seward, Thursday, 8 August 2013 02:44 (eleven years ago) link

oh duuuuude. "picking berries" on the high mountain hoedown record is gonna be your JAM. i love that song.

there are a lot of good records in that list. i don't think i need any of them though!

i guess i'd just rather listen to canned heat? (ian), Thursday, 8 August 2013 02:52 (eleven years ago) link

see, i told you. just good store stuff. the other local-ish guy is happy. i'm happy. everyone is happy.

scott seward, Thursday, 8 August 2013 03:11 (eleven years ago) link

he had some nice celtic/cape breton records but i still have a bunch of that stuff and i wasn't really buying for ebay. just getting some cheap-ish nice stuff to throw into the store. the stuff i have listed for ebay i could just sell in the store but i figure it never hurts to see what i can get for bear family and private banjo records. that tom shaw record on blue goose goes for some cash. but i might just put it out in the store anyway. people are always dying for decent blues records around here.

scott seward, Thursday, 8 August 2013 03:15 (eleven years ago) link

we took a trip to beantown today - or cambridge anyway - to buy CDs from an awesome ilxor and i stopped in cheapo records. they have a lot of, uh, stuff...they definitely have HUNDREDS of dollar records that i own priced at 5 or 6 bucks. and they have this HUGE section in the back devoted to ancient bear family box sets! very strange. the prices are ancient too. the whole back room is filled with old sealed budget bin records. kinda cool. i got three henry cow records sealed. original pressings. 10 bucks each. they had more if you are ever in the area. seemed like a good deal to me. anyway, i didn't get out of there crushed by the weight of my purchases. but i found enough skot stuff to keep me happy. spent a hundred bucks total and 30 of that was henry cow action.

marti shannon - you were on my mind (rca victor - 1966) (couldn't resist the cover. so beautiful. the lettering, marti, her pose, everything.)

those x-cleavers - cult statis (permanent records - 1987) (wisconsin weirdos. i have this on tape.)

soft machine - alive & well - recorded in paris (harvest - 1978)

rabindra - all i see is you (takoma) (my pal doug decker engineering and working his buchla magic!)

paul jones - crucifix in a horseshoe (london) (was happy to get this for five bucks. vertigo copies sell for $$$ and i never see them anyway. needed it for my thomas jefferson kaye collection.)

mick greenwood - living game (decca) (five bucks. i own it, maybe i'll gift it to someone.)

country - s/t (clean records - 1971) (couldn't remember if i had this or not.)

keith christmas - brighter day (manticore - 1975)

country coalition - s/t (bluesway) (sealed copy for five bucks.)

johnny melfi - johnnymelfi's sun...sun...sun...album (pyramid - 1977)

thomas & richard frost - s/t (uni - 1972)

babe ruth - amar cabballero (harvest)

atlantis - get on board (vertigo - 1975)

dallas county - s/t (enterprise)

morganmasondowns - s/t (roulette) (another one i was really happy to get for five bucks. i never see this record. my kinda stuff. most of the stuff i got had obviously been in the store a LONG time. old price stickers on top of even older price stickers. its the final markdown. god only knows how long those henry cow records had been there. all that sealed stuff looked like it had lived back there for years. maybe they started out with 50 henry cows each.)

scott seward, Monday, 12 August 2013 00:47 (eleven years ago) link

i mean they aren't really big on "condition" there but i'm sure i could have found more bargains if i had dug longer. they had big dance 12 inch and rap 12 inch sections but i hardly ever pay real world prices for 12 inches. tons of boxes of 45s under the counters that i wasn't gonna bother going through. if i had hours to kill maybe i would have. the new arrivals section didn't really have anything for me. some good funky/jazzy stuff but nothing i needed to spend 10 or 15 bucks on.

someone came in talking about the goodwill store and soul records and maria and the kids went there and maria said a record dude was buying up tons of stuff there so i guess i missed the real score action by a block today.

scott seward, Monday, 12 August 2013 00:53 (eleven years ago) link

bert jansch - nicola
coon creek girls - early radio favorites
carter family - gospel songs by (volume 3 of old homestead's border radio series)

no lime tangier, Monday, 19 August 2013 16:18 (eleven years ago) link

dollar flea market records --
teena marie - it must be magic
herb alpert - rise

dmr, Monday, 19 August 2013 17:26 (eleven years ago) link

"rotation" on that herb record might be even better than the biggie sample.

dmr, Monday, 19 August 2013 17:27 (eleven years ago) link

lets see what did i get here...

Pigmeat Markham - Open The Door Richard
Gilbert O'Sullivan - Himself
Ralph Macdonald - Counterpoint

Bill Dana - Jose Jimenez The Submarine Officer

and a dope box of 45s ($15 including the aqua porta-pak)

1st pressing but it was really badly scratched up on side 2, but it actually plays fine!

Just noise and screaming and no musical value at all. (Colonel Poo), Friday, 23 August 2013 23:12 (eleven years ago) link

that's because its an indestructible record made out of fire and blood.

scott seward, Saturday, 24 August 2013 00:13 (eleven years ago) link

This is true.

Reminds me I should message my friend and tell him because he insisted it was unplayable. He didn't really know what it was, I think he got it in a job lot of records he was trying to sell off on ebay. It's not rare at all but he could've probably get a fiver for it in that condition. I mean obv he gave it me for doing him a favour but he's on disability so I wouldn't've taken it if I thought it was worth any money. And I have it on CD already anyway but I'm def happy to have it on vinyl.

scott seward, Sunday, 25 August 2013 18:12 (eleven years ago) link

jesus
i went to a 50 cent sale and got some good stuff, but not that kind of good stuff. it was like 30% christmas music so of the remaining 70% i only wanted a tiny portion. there were a LOT of late 90s/early 00s rap 12" which is fine but i don't really have any need for them.
