2013 scores

I was trying to slow my roll a bit because I really just have too many records, but I broke the fast today. Stopped by Goodwill with the excuse of looking for some Halloween costume accessories, dug through the stacks, limited my pile to 9 records and was about to leave when I did a last-minute perimeter sweep. Saw the corner of a 70's Columbia logo in a cardboard box under a table, and ended up with another 90 45s.

Mostly Country DJ Promos, some song poem type stuff.

Not going to type them all up but here's 10 off the top:
The England World Cup Squad - This Time (We'll Get It Right) / England, We'll Fly The Flag

The Three Cheers - Meet (Baton), they do Beatles, Johnny Otis, Booker T

Stevens Express sounds crazy

I've been working on a lounge mix and I couldn't choose a Stevens Express song that fits, it's such a horribly mundane but completely weird record, so instead I'm going to post the whole record on my blog, along with their only 45.

robbie basho - the art of the acoustic steel string guitar 6 & 12 (one dollar!)
dillard and clark - through the morning, through the night (four dollars!)
the highwaymen - s/t (two dollars!)
bonobo - the north borders

dang, that's a helluva bargain!!

We saw signs for an estate sale way out in the country in a barn and decided to go. They had boxes of 45s and I went all of them. It was mostly country, doo wop, 50's teen pop, stuff I know nothing about, so I bought all of the off label stuff I found and just found this in the stacks along with early Mickey Gilley and a few early canjun 45's. Still sorting through them.

NICE.

love early cajun stuff... sounds so great and hot at 45.

wtg jacob!

There were all of these early mercury George Jones, early Conway Twitty, Jerry Lee Lewis on Sun and loads of Elvis on RCA, they were all .25 cents each, but I backed out of buying them all.

jacob if you don't have this its really good. not saying you need this copy, but if you see it somewhere...

yeah, lots of cool stuff. mostly country/hick stuff from the 40s/early 50s but a few r&b things and a few pre-war string band things, as well. a shit ton of delmore bros, bill monroe, wayne raney, lefty frizzell, hank sr., etc. and some cool obscurities. no tommy johnson but a ton of fun shit to jam.

<3 delmore bros

i mean, i love left and hank and bill monroe too! i never really listened to wayne raney. honky tonker?

wayne raney was a vocalist and, i think, harp player with the delmore bros for some time. they play on some of his solo stuff, too. he was poppier and did a lot of hillbilly boogie stuff. some turds but some killer shit, too.

picked up the new lubomyr melnyk today. great solo piano jamz

very pete imo

There were a bunch of almost mint condition folk LPs at the thrift store. Couldn't just leave them sitting there. I actually thought I would flip them to one of the stores in town but the guy there didn't want them. So now I get to listen to them. Can't emphasize enough how beautiful these things are! Records look shiny and new, jackets incredible with almost no ringwear and great spines, original inserts, etc.

I remember hearing about that Port Authority record in my crate digging listserv days but have never heard it

sometimes I think this is the best record ever made, mine is red too, thought they all were!

When I used to Dj I had a copy that was black vinyl that I ended up selling in my big disco purge. I was so happy to find it again today for a dollar. Reminded me to never sell Arthur Russell records again!

A dollar, wow. I got a black one. It sounds huge.

that corbitt/daniels is $$$$ iirc.
