A very early start dug up a few gems in a packed field this
morning, I awoke early and after putting the kettle on and
looking up at the time then realised I was an up an hour too soon
so went back to bed until 6:15 and then merrily drove off to sit in
a queue outside the massive car boot in Northampton.
There were plenty of singles and one guy had 2 huge boxes
at 25p a go, so I pulled loads including Iron Maiden, Pink Floyd
and even an 80's re-issue of The High Numbers I'm The Face
which was an unexpected treat but this 7" was the pick of the
bunch for me as I never knew the French drink Pernod had
released a record on it's own label before and it's pretty good.
I saw a bloke dipped down over a big box of promo card & pvc
sleeved promo CD's and started to dig when the woman said
[i]"these were my ex-husbands, he used to have a record shop,
you can have the lot for £8"[/i] which was so cheap I couldn't
haggle so just said yes straight away and the bloke who had
been going through them was a bit miffed but he had a handful
of them and she told him to just keep them.
There were so many I have pulled out loads of compilations to
listen to on my trips up to Scotland and will give a mate who is
helping me to move all the rest. The smiley face sleeved disc
turned out to be a great surprise, it's by someone called
Dr. Coca Cola and it's worth the free download : http://www.duckworthsquare.com/A…
I couldn't resist these which were all on the same stall at 2 x fiver,
the Screaming Lord Sutch is a keeper!
