    The good, the bad and the just plain ugly turned up in fields these past 7 days

    the good - well pretty great actually, a handful of original French
    7" acetates from the 50's, all sitting in a tatty 78's box.
    The rest of the diggers went for the singles (mostly 60's soul
    but hey, I got there late) and some pretty standard albums,
    but these beauties were lurking amongst the stuff most folks
    tend to avoid, I do have an eye for these things.

    The woman was doing a house clearance and was
    pretty stressed out on the stall declaring everything £2 each
    "NO OFFERS!" which put some folks noses out of joint -
    "what, even for the singles?!"
    but there was no way I was gonna haggle for these.


    Little Richard


    Buddy Holly

    This came with the original sheet music inside the sleeve

    also from the same car boot a 12" of cover versions by The Fall
    I had not come across before

    the bad - although the version of Star Wars is not the worst I've heard

    well smoking is bad for you

    the ugly - pretty grim double header of holiday camp entertainment and dumb band names too!
