    Vaughn Meader had a First Family, Vol. 2 and I never see that one, but this album shown here will never go away (and it's on CD, too)!

    Tapestry-Carole King
    No Secrets-Carly "Homina Homina" Simon

    According to several sources, Avant-garde comedian Lenny Bruce appeared at a New York nightclub only days after Kennedy's assassination. As if testing his audience's readiness to find something funny so soon after tragedy, Bruce was silent for several moments before announcing, "Vaughn Meader is screwed!

    Unfortunately, that was true. After 11/22/63, sales slowed down on those First Family albums so much that Cadence Records was forced to delete it.

    Can we change the theme of this thread to most common LOCAL record you see?

    For me it's this local legend:

    ...but not before shipping their remaing stock of 45,678,893,234 copies to every discount reatailer in the country on a "no returns" basis!!!!

    Fuck Stein said it best. I've seen the shit everyday for the last 25 years! Also, Firestone X-Mas. How many copies of that were pressed? Damn.

    Heh, heh - I thought all them used copies you see were just from Middle America dumping all their copies all at once!!

    No offense, but I wanna keep marinatin' on just common records IN GENERAL, even though the topic may be played out!

    Although if that's where you wanna take it, here in Chicago it's ridiculously easy to find vinyl by 1970's folksinger Bonnie Koloc (who is still gigging around town on occasion).

    Especially her albums on the "compatible quad" Ovation label.

    ... or at least that was the case when I lived in the Bay Area. Now that I am in LA I feel like I see more of this....




    but when I lived in Chicago, it was more like this...

    I see that every time. Have you ever wanted to just buy up all the copies of some of these records just so nobody has to look at them anymore. I'd have a few 1000 Zamfirs for sure, it'd be fun to throw them at a brick wall and watch them shatter into pieces.

    stein's definitely got it.

    for a second i considered herb alpert

    but in the end Vaughn Meader wins no contest.

    Some french record hunters just stop hunting because of seeing this shit much too much... I can testify its oppulence can be discouraging.

    i know a shop in New Hope, PA that sells these for $20 a pop. They have a sign on their door that reads, "Unattended Children Will Be Sold As Slaves". They do have some interesting overpriced vintage stuff in there.
