Where do think I'm rushing after purchasing these records? Straight home! It's akin to a crack score (albeit, a little better for you). I've been at home working on my list all day and have only been without tunes while eating lunch and dinner.
Yo, I gotta follow up and say, I just got around to playing this record, and it is pretty damn smokin'!! Some super funky afro-latin sounds from Motown '74. Best thing I copped this weekend, although the Eddie Kendricks is def on point.

I was real happy to come across that Norman Connors...hadn't run across it before, and only a couple bucks? Yes please. The creator has a master plan indeed.
Great 45. DOn't hear too many talking about it, but I've surprised a few people when playing it to them.
Any chance of trading something to you for the Vibrettes & York Wilburn 45s? I will see if I can find some punk, but what else you looking for? Hit me with a PM if interested in working something out.
The above quote was in reference to the cropped "Melting Pot" 45 sitting in the background of the Frank Williams 45. Yeah, I love this tune - there was a wack of these found in Toronto a couple years back.
I'm not really sourcing out US funk 45's, although when I buy a collction like a did yesterday I'm always happy. Mainly looking for African press funk/afrobeat/afrolatin, South American-based Boogaloo, middle-eastern sounding ska (both vocal and instrumental), genesis era rap 12's and deep disco, NY/BK roots reggae, and any reggae soul covers I don't have...and obviously Canadian stuff, but I probably have a better chance than you at that.

Took a road trip upstate to this spot that has piles and piles of vinyl, but lots and lots of junk, and everything is always at least 25 percent more than you want to pay...still, got some goodies:
One really good find that I can't even find a jpeg for is:
Eddie Kendricks - All By Myself - Tamla 1971[/b] and also got Harvey Mandel - Games People Play - Philips[/b] and a couple of 45's: Wendy & Bonnie - What's Really Happening - Skye The American Breed - Short Skirts - Atca[/b]
...the little one in the middle is Kannibal Komix, some crazed proto-glam from Germany (and one Italian) on the Colossus label, the gatefold cover is a naked chick in a cape on a horse, holding a human skull in front of her, um, mid-section...
I got my usual pile of ~40 rap 12s (which I never type out), a handful of common soul 45s along with one weird rock one (Strange on Outer Galaxy) and the READY TO DIE CD/DVD...
i know it's hard to wrap your mind around, but some people find records and don't post about it
CAN YOU IMAGINE? it's heavy heavy shit. let it sink in for a minute.
but you will never attain BIG DUDE status this way. think about the fame and prestige of recounting the treasures unearthed from shitpiles of moldy records with cockroaches shooting out the walls, black mold in your lungs, and asbestos yet to be removed from the roof. truly glorious.
Met up wit lazer and hit the record show up in minneapolis as well as sum local stores. came out wit a couple lps and a lot of 45's. The paul chambers is a 70's repress i think.
Sum of the 45 highlights:
