I Love Vinyl! Recent Haul/Score/Purchase Thread (2011)

well, alright then. i bought some rad stuff yesterday. be back with list. i love records.

okay, a lot of these were 2 dollar records. all from mystery train. but they gave me a nice deal too. cuz they are nice. most expensive rekkerd was the sahara one.

Sahara – sunrise (peters international – 1973)

z-rocks – s/t (z records) (dunno the year. 79? 80? Probably 80. Americans obsessed with joe Jackson! Pretty funny. Sounds great too. Oh and the cars. Obsessed with joe Jackson and the cars.)

widowmaker – s/t (jet/ua – 1976)

funkmaster wizard wiz – put that head out (tuff city 12 inch)

jaguar – s/t (rca – 1977)

nervous eaters – s/t (Elektra – 1980)

karel fialka – still life (pye – 1980)

mylon lefevre – rock & roll resurrection (mercury – 1979) (sleeper of the century! Never dug mylon’s early 70’s southern rock/soul stuff, but this is a late-70’s glam boogie disco rock monster! Produced by allen Toussaint! God I love allen Toussaint in the 70’s.)

alec r. costandinos – hunchback of notre dame (Casablanca – 1978) (needed this.)

eurythmics – savage (bmg – 1987) (love this album. Needed a clean copy.)

aware – new lease on life (iron face – 1989) (hometown nostalgia. Knew these dudes a little. Friends with my friends. Nice guys.)

juicy lucy – s/t (vertigo – 1969) (nice original u.k. vertigo pressing! For 8 bucks!)

randy james – s/t (cream records) (this kinda sucks…)

slack 12 inch (street wise – 1984)

white horse – s/t (capitol – 1977) (already have this, but this was sealed. Nobody wants this record, but I dig it. Psych legend billy nicholls doing the 70’s horse rock thing.)

big stick – crack ‘n’ drag (blast first) (have no idea why I bought this. It was only 2 bucks though. I vaguely remember liking crack attack way back when. But I look at the lyrics now and go, um….)

altered images – I could be happy 12 inch (portrait – 1981)

Suzanne fellini – s/t (Casablanca – 1980) (had high hopes for this, but, eh…)

Gary O’ – s/t (capitol – 1981) (completely bonkers)

A split second – ballistic statues (antler records)

Rosenbloom Electric Chorus & Orchestra – souls of chaos (neutral records) (never heard/heard of this. Branca fans make goth industrial epic with strings and things.)

Jim Sullivan – s/t (playboy – 1972)

AR Kane – 69 (4ad)

Turner And Kirwan Of Wexford – absolutely and completely (peters international – 1977) (this is awesome. Hats off to whoever was responsible for the peters international cosmos series. Bringing euro-prog/psych to american heads in the 70’s. otherwise these albums would be near impossible to get here. Love the Esposito and secret oyster albums I have via peters. And now the sahara album and this one.)

Jimmy Pursey – imagination camouflage (polydor – 1980)

The Sports – don’t throw stones (mushroom – 1978)

Mud – it’s better than working! (private stock – 1976)

t.i.m.e. – s/t (liberty)

Virginia Astley – hope in a darkened heart (Geffen – 1988) (saw this a year ago at mystery train where I bought all this stuff and ever since I have thought DAMN I should have bought that! It was still there.)

Café De Paris – les variations (Buddah – 1975)

Get Sprouts – v/a (1980 belgian comp. album pressed in Holland. The kids, de kreuners, specimen & the rizikoos, toy, the employees, rick tubbax & the taxis, klang, ivy & the teachers, jo lemaire + flouze, the machines, once more, lavvi ebbel, tc.matic, the plant, telex)

Jackson Hawke – forever (cbs – 1976)

Unit 5 – scared of the dark (clone – 1981) (excited to have this! Um, even though I’ve never heard it. But I kinda love everything clone/ohio/akron)

Nasty Pop – s/t (island – 1975)

Nervous Germans/Nervosen Deutschen – s/t (shatter records)

Madcats – s/t (buddah – 1979)

New Heavenly Blue – s/t (atlantic – 1972)

Blind Idiot God – s/t (sst – 1987)

Ivar Avenue Reunion – s/t (rca – 1970) (needed this one! Goldberg, musselwhite, and my heroes lynn carey and neil merryweather.)

Hardin and York – for the world (decca) (siked to find this too. Nice german pressing.)

Michael Quatro – bottom line (sri – 1981) (needed this too!)

don't give up on the Big Stick! the 1st EP (i.e. side 1 of that LP) is where it's at.

I never knew Hope In A Darkened Heart was on vinyl! Something new to look for...

they had every single fields of the nephilim album/ep/single for cheap and i thought it might be kinda cool to be alex in nyc for a day and buy them all, but i chickened out. i'm sure it will all still be there when i go back months from now. i don't remember ever even hearing them back in the day. just knew they were big with mission/sisters/etc fans.

i won the 2nd help yourself record on ebay, and also another girls of the golden west 78. burning thru my paypal balance, need to sell more crap.

so Ian is that International Harvester record you've been talking about the same as what's on the Parson Sound box? Sov Gott Rose-Marie is totally my favorite song on the box. guessing that record is a different later version? In any case, looks cool.

the int'l harvester record was later recordings by essentially the same band.... i forget whether they recorded as Harvester or Int'l Harvester first, and then they became Trad Gras och Stenar. Different recordings. But I love their records, all of 'em. Harvester "Hemat" is also a pretty amazing record. Still available as a CD from a few years ago iirc.

http://totemsongs.blogspot.com/2008/07/harvester-hemat.html

hello friends, i have purchased a few records and traded for a few records in the past few days...

No Neck Blues Band - A Tabu 2 (NWOS 22)
Pierre Schaeffer, Pierre Henry - Premier Panorama de Musique Concrete (Ducretet-Thompson)
v/a: an anthology of noise and electronic music vol. 1 (Sub Rosa, with Russolo, John Cage, Nam June Paik, Oliveros, Boehmer, Mumma, Maclise etc etc etc. Some of it is silly (lol Neubauten, DJ Spooky) butttt....)
yo la tengo - painful
jesse winchester - third down, 110 to go
casey kelly s/t (west-coast folk-rock/psych fans take note--Sneaky Pete!)
dave cousins - two weeks last summer (recc'd to fans of John Martyn, Michael Chapman and the other 'progessive' UK folkies.)

this jesse winchester record fuckin KILLS dudes.

I got a pretty nice copy of the first Cryan' Shames album recently. Didn't notice until I was heading home that it said re-channeled stereo on the front, but most of it is real stereo. The single "Sugar and Spice" is fake stereo, but the right channel is a normal e.q., so you can just listen to that channel. (I sometimes listen to mono records in one or the other channel of the stereo, too, if one side has less surface noise. Or just because I would rather listen to them that way!)

Always liked "Sugar and Spice" from Nuggets, but I think, in the context of that album, I never realized how good it is!

Also: on Columbia. '60s Columbia records can sound really good, can't they? This album is really good sounding.

filling some holes from the new JDJr $2/$3 bins

^^ good record

From Berlin. None of this stuff was break the bank expensive. Pretty stoked.

Holger Czukay - der osten ist rot
Reichmann - wunderbar
Michael Rother - Flammende Herzen
AR & machines - the green journey (green vinyl. Pretty sure this is a reissue, but it's too awesome not to own)
La Düsseldorf - s/t (from a random vintage shop)
Lora Logic - pedigree charm
Grobschnitt - MIT deutschen texten (I shouldn't have bought this but was at first store I went to and didn't realize how much good kraut I'd actually find)
Eloy - colours (w/"horizons". Been on hunt for a while)

Now in Paris. Had The guy who reissued that Charanjit Singh record (the Indian "acid" record) show me around. I don't know French music all that well, so I pretty much let him hand me stuff and I'd buy it. Most of it sounds awesome so far.

Muriel Dacq - tropique 7"
Lio - amoureux solitaires 7"
Lio - fallait pas commencer 7"
Isabelle Mayereau - s/t (amazing folk funk)
Philippe Guerre - Cristal
Demos roussos - forever and ever
Richard gotainer - chants zazous
Alain Chamfort - amour année zéro
Plastic Bertrand - l'album
Alan stivell - renaissance de la Harpe celtique
Martin circus - disco
Bernard lavelliers - nuit d'amour

That's a sweet haul from Berlin. I would love to get my hands on Wunderbar at some point. I met a guy in town months ago, who wanted to sell me a 2009 reissue of it for $75. No way would I go for that.

AR & machines - the green journey (green vinyl. Pretty sure this is a reissue, but it's too awesome not to own)

yeah this is so great. don't have it on vinyl. my friend Chris told me about these guys. I need to hear more of the Rattles too (A.R.'s previous band)

niiiiiice! lets hang when yr back jaxon!

Wunderbar was only 6€!

I've never heard of the rattles. there were tons of solo achim reichel records everywhere but I listened to one and it was shit

Pete, let's hang. I accepted a job at Shazam the day I left. Time to celebrate!

solo achim is hit or miss. there are good ones and there are ???? ones. everyone needs echo by ar & machines. but its veddy $$$.

palo alto right?? i dont want you in seoul!!

Rattles are more garage / acid rock and less kraut. I can't really figure out what else is good by them past a couple singles. They seem to have a lot of shitty re-recorded versions of their stuff out there.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKd8zm-q6OM

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9ogZsJpFwU

^^^^ second one sounds a lot like Sarolta Zalatnay

Yes. Palo Alto. Not moving to ny (for now)

- Leyland Kirby, Intrigue & Stuff Vol. 3
- Korallreven, An Album By Korallreven (Acephale's streak of unimpeachably beautiful sleeves & records remains unbroken. this one isn't quite as stunning as the Pure X LE version, which is probably the nicest-looking record anyone's put out this year, but it's REALLY nice.)
- Elite Gymnastics, Ruin (see above)
- Porcelain Raft, Gone Blind EP (see above, although I had to settle for the less-limited version)
- Christopher Hobbs/John Adams/Gavin Bryars, Ensemble Pieces
- Gavin Bryars, Hommages (probably the last of his records that I'll seek out)
- Talk Talk, Spirit of Eden
- Mark Hollis, s/t (sadly the reissue of Laughing Stock is sold out everywhere. DAMN YOU PITCHFORK)
- the new Soft Moon EP, LE version
- the Blouse album, LE version
- Bryan Ferry, The Bride Stripped Bare
- Philip Glass, Mishima OST
- Fleetwood Mac, Tusk (replacing my old beat-to-shit version)
- Van Dyke Parks, Arrangements Vol. 1 (not as awesome as I'd hoped but Dino Martin's version of Sitting Here In Limbo damn near justifies it by itself)
- The Beach Boys, The Smile Sessions (THIS IS SO GOOD)

and these should be showing up from Experimedia any day now:
- Steve Hauschildt, Tragedy & Geometry
- Nova Scotian Arms/Motion Sickness of Time Travel, Crystal Anniversary split
- Lee Noble, Horrorism
- Jacob Feige & Keith Freund, From The Museum Of Natural History

liking that Hauschildt, listened to it yesterday after seeing recommendations from psherburne and others

- the new Soft Moon EP, LE version
- the Blouse album, LE version

i ordered these too, but they seem to have gone missing in the mail

did some trades w/a guy in germany (TermBo) for these; just arrived:

TO MY LIVING ROOM

psych nah, it's in the back room behind jazz. the upstairs space is employees only.

lame

dont worry there still wasnt anyone in the section
