I only know a third of your haul. I'm assuming at least half of the records in your list are jazz?

thirty jazz records in there yeah

I wish I could focus on buying jazz records more, but I have had to narrow what I look for when I buy records.

yeah in 2011 god told me to stop buying so many field recordings and focus on jazz and drone records for a while

today:

rockin' horse - s/t (rca - 1975) (i sold my crappy copy and kinda hoped i would find a nicer one. did today.)

hanson - magic dragon (manticore - 1974) (excited to find this today for cheap)

kenny young - clever dogs chase the sun (warner brothers - 1971) (i really am becoming the accidental chris spedding completist)

clifford t. ward - mantle pieces (charisma - 1974)

trickster - s/t (cbs - 1978)

pages - s/t (cbs - 1978)

larry weiss - black & blue suite (20th century - 1974)

skyboys - s/t (first american - 1979)

tufano-giammarese - s/t (ode - 1973)

domenic troiano - s/t (mercury - 1972) (keep finding more dom albums i don't have. this has to be his first. i dig them all.)

ken burgan - the big bow-wow strain (blue thumb - 1974)

william saint james - song for every mood (dunhill - 1973)

thomas jefferson kaye - first grade (abc/dunhill - 1974) (excited to have this too! sealed even! a must for all steely dan fans.)

belfegore - s/t (elektra - 1984) (bought in honor of alexinnyc)

robert hunter - jack o' roses (dark star - 1980) (tough one to find and it was only four bucks.)

marcus - s/t (UA - 1976) (upgrade from my kinda not great copy. essential to have.)

nilsson - knnillssonn (rca - 1977)

hanson - now hear this (manticore - 1973) (another upgrade. sweet promo copy.)

paul mccartney - mccartney II (columbia - 1980) (i'm a hipster!)

mike silver - troubadour (mca/rocket - 1973) (really nice!)

mason proffit - bare back rider (warner brothers - 1973)(again just a really nice unplayed copy)

rhead brothers - dedicate (emi - 1977)

mason proffit - last night i had the strangest dream (ampex - 1971) (again with the cleaness)

savoy brown - savage return (london - 1978) (needed this. sounds so awesome)

redwing - s/t (fantasy)

john manning - white bear (columbia - 1971)

the bolshoi - friends (i.r.s. - 1986) (needed this for my fave "books on the bonfire")

the hollywood stars - s/t (arista - 1977)

supa - supa's jamboree (paramount records - 1971)

Rockin' Horse, nice. Been looking for that one.

Went to Euclid Records in St. Louis over Xmas and grabbed these:

Love of Life Orchestra - Extended Niceties 12"
JJ Cale - Troubador
Visage - Mind of a Toy 12" (w/ Frequency 7 on side b)
Ultravox - Vienna 12" (prod Conny Plank)
Nina Hagen - Zarah Remix 12" (prod Giorgio Moroder)

Rock stuff is getting really expensive at Euclid ... had to stick to the new wave / disco action which was priced cheaper. Most of those were $3-$4 except Love of Life which was $16 but I was still psyched to get it. They had a copy of Yoko Ono - Fly that I really wanted but it was 40 bucks! Ick.

Saw that Fly a few weeks ago on my last trip to STL. They had a bunch of bootlegs and stuff. Rock stuff is priced pretty stupid there. A quick look through the jazz led me to believe that it's the same case for that genre. But I found some real good deals on new age type stuff (Jon Hassell, Harold Budd) after digging.

yeah there seem to be certain genres they don't care about as much. Love of Life Orchestra would have probably been $10 cheaper if it didn't have David Byrne's name on the back. the whole 12" section was pretty reasonable, but not the albums.

thats the american version of BROWN RICE, sleeve -- its the only one ive ever had! i guess that version is technically self-titled, but it's the exact same thing as the OG italian one.

I knew you would enlighten me, thanks!

They had some other really nice Cherry LPs (incl. all 3 Codonas iirc) but they were $$.

cool! im on the lookout for that italian brown rice, and also for the 2LP ORGANIC MUSIC if you see them around, even if theyre $$.

also, i need someone to just kind of pick out 3-4 legendary pink dots records for me to start with. i heard an FMU show w them last year and it RULED, but when ive tried to listen to random records i see around at stores, im left feeling like ehh

assuming you mean vinyl, I recommend:

Any Day Now
The Maria Dimension
Faces In The Fire
The Tower

The two I got are good also - Stone Circles is a (imho) very badly chosen early-years anthology that's still worth having, and Crushed Velvet has some real high points.

oh the "Under Glass" 12" is great too, wish I hadn't sold that for a CD version back in the 90's.

cool, thank you! im discogs wishlisting them now.

sleeve, when did you live in charlottesville? sometime IL:Xor C4rey used to drive a bus there, and i think also worked at plan 9 for a time.

I have this on CD already, I'll probably give it a listen and maybe sell the CD if I like it better on vinyl?)
no thanks - are you ready to die LP

I bought that River City record based on being on Enterprise and I haven't listened to it yet. Did you like it?

hey ian I grew up in Charlottesville! so I lived there until 1984 and visited pretty regularly for another 4-5 years. Bimble was from there too :( Don't know a C4rey tho.

also congrats on yer marriage!

I haven't listened to it yet either. All that stuff is sitting in a pile in my spare room waiting for me to clean it... which I will probably do this weekend.

xpost

Also yes I didn't know Ian got married, congrats

Just played River City and it's not bad. Lot's of horns, sort of like early Chicago, but not really. With a few rural sounding songs, and a few silly ones.

Yeah I gather my grandpa was really into something called "horn rock", at least that's what tons of his records came up as online.

if that's an original u.k. love & poetry in good shape then $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Just looked on popsike and jesus fucking christ you are right there... most of his records are in very good shape, however a LOT of them are cut-outs, my grandma told me he used to go up to Birmingham and buy stuff out of the bargain bin in the mid-70s. I'm at work now but I'll have to check what label it's on. I guess the fact that Discogs only lists recent reissues means it must be pretty rare.

Your Grandpa sounds like a cool guy!

grandpa's collection looks like mine!

i mean, its not like i'm the only person who owns the river city, repairs, mud, and nasty pop albums, but i didn't think there were too many people out there who would. other than here, apparently.

I got my wife to look (as I'm at work) and the Andwellas Dream record is on CBS and appears to be from 1969. There's some bubbling on the laminate on the sleeve but the record is spotless, she says. She looked on Popsike and reckons it's about the same condition as one that sold for £750!

I'll rip it first before I sell it but don't think I can justify hanging on to that, no matter how good it might be.

yeah, that's a definite sell. buy the reissue.

My only recent score worth noting was receiving Farewell Aldebaran (original Straight release) for Xmas. Def the best gift I got this year.

So how would you guys suggest I go about selling this record - is Ebay the best option? It's not even on Discogs, and my account is locked down for some unknown reason so I can't add new releases to the DB (I keep meaning to email the admin about that, maybe this is a good reason to do something about it). I guess at least with Ebay it'll probably sell right away. I've never had a record worth anywhere near this amount before, kinda worried now!

yeah, ebay. no worries. just be really accurate in your description. make sure you know what pressing it is. include matrix numbers. pictures.

or just offer it to a local store in exchange for 500 punk singles.

hehe. just think I could probably buy 3 Killed By Death 7"s with the money this goes for! or pay off my overdraft. hmm

i love this thread right now! grandpa finds = $$$

thanks for wedding congrats, guys! i got married waaaaay back in August! i think our own Jacob Sanders just got married though?!?!

if true, congrats!!!!

you guys are too young to die! i mean...get married.

but, yeah, congrats, etc.

dude but you make it seem so awesome!

I did just get married, and was wondering do you guys keep your records as his or hers or is your collection 'Ours' now?

long-term cohabitation speaking here, but when we moved to cali, all hope of maintaining separation was abandoned. weve started selling some doubles lately, too.

we have our records separate still... i sold off some duplicates when i needed to get my cat's teeth pulled out.

and congrats jacob! married life is great, no matter what skot says ;)

We merged ours when we got married, sold off all our dupes etc.

Got a scratchy mono copy of the first Electric Prunes album for three bucks today. Never heard it before!

I don't mind scratchy records (to a certain extent, anyway, obviously) if they're mono. Stereo - forget it.

allez allez - hideous racket ep (rvng)

wow so much new stuff from all over the east coast! ill be listening to it all ASAP!!

Rhode island Antiques Mall --

For Our Catsitter:
"East Coast Blues: 1026-35" (Yazoo)

For Pete:
Paul Siebel "Jack-Knife Gypsy"
Jackie McLean "Demon's Dance"

For Me:
Ornette Coleman "New York Is Now" (at $7 this was probably the score of the day. I know it's not a hugely expensive rekkerd, but $7 for a clean copy is pretty good imo...)
Old Salt s/t (private country rock)
Dillards w. Byron Berline (seventies press)
David Rea "Slewfoot" (looked cool, $3)
best of Leonard Cohen ($2, will give this to someone.)
Pentangle "Sweet Child" clean promo, didn't have this one
Fleetwood Mac "Future Games" (not sure if i have his or not, it was $2 so i got it in case)
Gabor Szabo "Spellbinder"
Gabor Szabo "1969"

huh, the old salt record was a score too i guess -- has sold for $30+ in the past. and both Gabor's were $5 each.

in your ear -- warren, ri:

hans-joachim roedelius - momenti felici
keith sykes 1-2-3 (got for our roommate; original version of 'about her eyes' as covered by jjw)

madrigal s/t (sealed on sss)

steve kuhn & ecstasy - motility
oku shareh - turtle dance songs of san juan pueblo
seals & crofts - sudan village
jeannie c. riley's greatest hits
wille nelson - before his time
william ackerman - conferring with the moon

as always i was in sort of a rush. would have loved to have more time to dig through the dollar records and rock overstock, i didn't even touch the forty-fives. unfortunately my dad eats early and wanted us to come by his place at 5, didn't ge to the record store til 4:30.

i really bought those sealed SSS records kinda blind. i'd heard the heather black before and remember liking it, kinda blues rock/psych iirc. the others i don't know but they were all in the $5 range so i figured what the hell, bought doubles to trade or whatev. they also had the HOUSTON album sealed for $15 but i don't remember liking that one too much. i'd probably love it now but, you know, you can't win 'em all.

oh, and i had never heard that johnny adams LP but i like him in general so ya know.

in book scores news, i got this weekend --

2x donald westlake novels
3x lawrence block mysteries -- two matt scudder novels and one collection of early short stories.

Snakefinger - Against the Grain (some kinda compilation on Ralph, has Man in the Dark Sedan on it)
Spencer Davis Group - Best Of
Pere Ubu - The Modern Dance

the Pere Ubu was only 12 bucks so I'm thinking it was some kind of reissue? but I can't tell ... it says Blank Records 1978 but I thought an o.g. Modern Dance was more like a 30 dollar record ... either way I wanted it

there's a scorpio reissue of the modern dance, or there was. best way to check is to look at the inside of the jacket and if it's bright white it's prob the reissue.

Hm some things from the last month or so
Brian Eno - Lux (I like this!)

I mainly gave it a look because it was on the wall at Academy with a "best LP of 2012!" notecard

I did sell off some stuff on Monday and got a bunch of cardboard boxes too btw. I usually only try to go when you're there but just needed to take care o' business. All my records are boxed up for moving now. Was trying to get as much done as I can before I went back to work today.

love ya pal. let's hang soon!

nice. I didn't recognize the bandmembers but figured if guys from Home helped em record at the Ocropolis it was gonna be up my alley.

Good stuff at two thrift stores this morning! Two Indian soundtrack albums from the '70s, both of which have Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bosle singing, plus:

Hipnosis - "Oxygene"/"Bormaz" 12" ('83 instrumental Italo - A-side is disco version of the Jean-Michel Jarre piece, B-side is great!)

And 45s:
Don Covay and the Goodtimers - "Mercy Mercy"/"Can't Stay Away" (Rosemart, 1964)
Brothers of Soul - "Hurry, Don't Linger"/"I Guess That Don't Make Me a Loser" (Boo, 1968)
Little Sister - "Somebody's Watching You"/"Stanga" (Stone Flower, 1970 - Had this already, but this looked like a nicer copy. I don't know have their other 45 and think this one's the more common of the two.)

can someone change this thread title, or should we start a new one?

feel free to start a new one.

I did realize I bumped an outta date thread after Pete started a 2013 listening list BUT my purchases were on Dec. 31. so it can be filed under 2012 Old Business.

Had never heard that Don Covay version of "Mercy Mercy," by the way. It's great - great guitar.

i want to say that's hendrix on the don covay cut? not 100% sure tho. great song.

Ha, didn't know that. "This record has cool guitar." "Oh yeah, that's JIMI HENDRIX."

Love the B side of that one, too.
