I'm currently on a trip to my old hunting grounds, local car boots
& charity shops etc, I've had a few good finds in Scotland
including a huge jazz collection but for sheer I-never-know-what-is-gonna-turn...
Northamptonshire has few equals for surprises, although I
rarely stray further than Bucks so I'm kinda biased, but I did
find a few nice things at a boot and a shop with the weekend
finds to come.
Time was I'd pay little attention to the boxes the records were
in but this pretty 60's case was too good to leave for a pound.Some of the more interesting albums most of which were 50p
from the same car boot as the fancy case.
I assumed the 'Featuring CHILDREN' refered to the kids
on the front but it was to a composition of his own and sadly
not a cover of the Robert Miles tune either.
I've never come across a copy of this scarce album before,
the sleeve has wear but the disc is lovely.
A nice minty album of childrens songs released on a Topic
imprint, some good witchy (Ritual Games) tunes on side 1.
I find it incredible that an Appalachian folk album released
in 1977 to raise money for an obscure American coal mine
somehow finds it's way to a field in Northampton!
It's signed on the rear but I can't make out if it's either
of the artists - Rich Kirby or Michael Kline.
The tip shop in town had a lot of fresh albums but
I unearthed some interesting globe spanning singles.
Arabian release from 1962 by Saken Qassadi
Square flexi-postcard picture disc from Venice.
Obscure Welsh indie band from 1984.
UK one sided stereo test disc.
12" of the classic Planet Rock complete with Hip Hop sticker.
