2013 scores

re: the 78 convo i missed the other day, the only time i found (well, tbh, my friend found them and texted me... i wasn't even there) pre-war string band shit in the bay was at the garage sale of r. crumb associates so that was a lucky fluke. pre-war hick and blues shit seems almost primarily a southern thing (maybe some chicago / mid-west for blues) which makes sense since most migration of southern folk happened during and after the war... that said, tons of great honky tonk and western swing and post-war blues 78s in cali...

this record shreds you guys. kinda in a ernie graham / brinsley schwarz / frankie miller vein but american. stoked to trade for a sealed copy yesterday at the KUSF swap.

a couple of weeks ago:

louvin brothers - tragic songs of life
dillard & clark - through the morning, through the night
the white brothers - new kentucky colonels live in sweden

today:
robert wyatt - radio experiment rome february 1981
johnny dyani - witchdoctor's son together
roy harper - sophisticated beggar, stormcock
michael chapman - wrecked again, playing guitar the easy way (with instruction booklet)
various - matchbox days (late sixties uk country blues comp with mike cooper, jo-ann kelly, wizz jones, etc)

now that's what i'm talking about.

dude, ian, i kinda want to keep that record. its no nice. i'm gonna take a hundred bucks worth of my records to the store to justify. unplayed promo. with a promo sheet with a nice note written by one of the dudes. and then another handwritten note by someone else that basically says: sheesh this is bleak.

I've never heard ernie graham, brinsley schwarz, or frankie miller, at least I don't think I have.

it's "so" nice

no worries!! i can't be buying records now anyway. keep that shit.
i only want fiddlin music, cuz it's in my price range.

also: brinsley schwarz "silver pistol" is such a fuckin great record...

man, your shop is so cool.

seriously

Wasn't even going to so to the swap meet this morning, but I did and ended up with this stuff for seven dollars:

Loretta Lynn - You're Looking at Country ('72)
Porter Wagoner and Dolly Parton - Just the Two of Us ('68)
Herman's Hermits - "There's a Kind of Hush" b/w "No Milk Today"
The Tornadoes - "Bustin' Surfboards" b/w "Beyond the Surf" ('62)
Bobby Powell - "That Little Girl of Mine" b/w "C.C. Rider" (Whit, '65)
Don (Soul Train) Campbell - "Campbell Lock" b/w "Campbell Lock (Instrumental)"
The Goodees - "Jilted" b/w "Love Is Here" (Hip, '68)

The Don Campbell one is a funk record. He was a Soul Train dancer who did a dance called the Lock.

The Goodees one is a knockout. Not on Youtube, unfortunately. Closest thing I could compare it to is maybe the Feminine Complex.

i like the goodees album. "condition red" was their big one.

I'd like to have everything on Hip records!

Only a couple of references to "Jilted" on ilx. This is one:

I just got a comp with this on it - IT IS THE GREATEST SONG EVER RECORDED, CONTEMPLATED, OR DANCED TO, BY MAN OR BEAST!

never heard it! I only have a best of Jerry Jeff on CD. you find anything good at that stoop sale on the way to Lavendar Lake?

this was from that one guy's semi-permanent weekend stoop sale at 7th and Union. he's a little bit overpriced but usually has some good stuff.

i got a few things from the park place stoop sale -- it was my buddy miggy selling some of his excess stock. he's an ebay dealer mostly. i didn't get anything for myself, but some stuff to flip at the brooklyn flea record fair in a few weeks

jacob, you should check out:
brinsley schwarz - first 4 LPs (esp. silver pistol)
ernie graham - s/t (backed by brinsley schwarz)
frankie miller - once in a blue moon (also backed by brinsley schwarz)

records thrifted today -
plastic bertrand
pixies
elvis presley
buffalo springfield
saccharine trust
suburban lawns
iggy pop bootleg (VG some scuffings but nothing deep.)
wynonie harris collection on charly
flatt & scruggs

nice! which suburban lawns - the s/t?

no it was the more common EP. :(

http://www.eggcityradio.com/sharity/suburbanlawns.jpg

Cover's a bit ragged, could use some re-gluing.

there was also a copy of Legacy of Brutality but it was beat to heck so I left it.

i need that su tissue album. really want that. but i also kinda want the suburban lawns LP. i'll find one eventually.

Jeez, where do you find Saccharine Trust records in thrift stores :(

^^^^ ???

which one? I really need a copy of Surviving You Always, one of my single biggest "shoulda bought that" regrets.

that's the one i got!
in brooklyn. weird day. it's a place i don't think i've EVER found records before and usually just check in cuz it's near some other places and sometimes has books i want.

sacc trust album is in what i would consider VG shape on the B side and VG+ on the A side; there is what looks like a bit of groove wear on the last two tracks, some light scuffing etc. i can play it and give you more info if yer interested. cover has a bit of corner creasing and a punch hole.

yes please!

also this which i dig.

pentangle - sweet child
bert jansch & john renbourn - stepping stones

Late to this but that Su Tissue record keeps going up and up on ebay and it's getting so it's not even worth trying for it. But you can still get Baby cheap!
