recent LP vinyl finds, some of these were in a box
with a few gold London label 7"s, they were a bit tatty
and some had lost their tri-centres but nice to find anyway!http://i207.photobucket.com/albu…
I actually nearly left this as I knew nothing about it
and some other records caught my eye, but am so glad
I did pick it up as it turns out to be really good and also
pretty rare as well as having a big blue sticker in the middle.
another scarce find was this LP by Sixto Rodriguez
the cover of which I didn't quite recognise until I realized
someone had actually cut the front flap off!
This too turned out to be a lovely listen and an absolute keeper
one of several Christian folk albums in with a job lot
I won for £2 at the auction yesterday, this one from
1970 by Larry Groce was the pick of the bunch
also in the same box was this record of old woodwind
instrument sounds, the intro's in a really plummy voice
alone are well worthy of sampling
I guess it's fate that this turned up too as I only just
started watching re-runs of The New Avengers at the
weekend, but I am neither convinced nor scared of
the blokes with guns on the rear of the sleeve
This great old On-U Sound album was in the box at
Age Concern this morning for 49p
I already have it on vinyl & CD but could hardly leave it,
especially as it had these 2 x A4 sheets including the
original press release for this and the brilliant
End of The Century Party by Gary Clail
oddest find of the week was this American album from
1967 which has some good spoken word samples,
it comes with strange sleeve notes and a little info booklet
