Found some nice bits on a trip east to Peterborough yesterday
including some nice summery Jazz including Brubeck and
Quincy Jones, but I'm digging Sergio's groove today.
It was fate really, I go to see the new Mission Impossible film
and then pop into a charity shop on the way home and bingo!
a Lalo Schifrin album I have not seen before, the track-listing
is intriguing too.
A pair of old folk albums by a singer who used to be on Harvest Records
In the same box was this signed album by 60's star PJ Proby,
his message on the front reads :
'Steve, I personally can't stand my voice, but if this album gives
you some pleasure I'm happy, keep it - all my best PJ Proby Jim'
In a tip shop in Peterborough I came across this old acetate,
I gave it to a friend to sell as it's not my cuppa tea but is a rare
thing indeed.
I met an old punk at the tip shop and we got chatting and he
told me he only lived around the corner and asked me if I wanted
to go and see some of his old records, which of course I had to do.
We were walking to his house when we started chatting about
this & that and he suddenly announced he had just come out
of prison. Oh aye, I said, what for? "Armed robbery" he replied,
haha I said with a slightly nervous laugh and decided there and
then not to delve deeper. He had a few boxes of really scratched
singles but a handful of albums and he wanted a fiver for these 2,
hey I wasn't gonna argue! He was a nice chap though, probably just took a wrong path...
