Weekend Finds

edited May 2006 in Strut Central
HAd to skip out on the record show today for a collection call...Ill beat cut, wtih even more devastating version.Dope roots over soundandpressure rhythm.Latin? African? This record is very hard to define except to sat that it's in all facets. Sounds like Mulatu.Another facemelting JA instrumental. One fo the toughest rhythms ever recorded.Bunny Lee/King Tubby productions. Can' find a bad song on here.Nice 83-ish lovers tune.Elusive Lp with ill Wayne Mcghie soul/reggae jam. got another without a cover if anyone is down. I must have put the sleeve in safe keeping somewhere, but it wa signed by Jackie mittoo, Wayne McGhie, And Dennis Brown.Had to leave a couple boxes at my Gradnmother's to truck home at a later date - think most of the jazz is there. About 70 Blue Notes, many of them mono pressings.The 45 we were discussing in another thread.Tasteful boogie LP. sweet vox.More boogie.Ja soul? great cut whatever it is. Beaty.Not the most flattering last name. Killer indy disco 45.Really like this 12.It's all about the gloves.K in canada.

    Holy shit K, you always own these threads. Anyways, I got a couple things this week.

    The Surfaris & Hendrix were two sorely needed upgrades, so I am happy. Cliff Bennett & The Rebel Rousers is real good UK soul, I'd never seen it before but they do respectable versions of some classics. The Otis Redding is a clean NZ OG (hard as hell to find clean). Hollywood Brats are like the New York Dolls but they are English, this is a NZ only (I think) press from 1980 of early 70s material. The other stuff is pretty standard but all good.

    Another couple of local pressed Picketts to cross off. Gettin' my Ike & Tina game up on 45. Run DMC is a WLP with You Be Illin on both sides instead of Hit It Run on the flip.

    Usha Sings is an Indian Folk LP with Donovan, Leonard Cohen and Fred Neil covers, Barbara Y Dick is from Argentina with Dylan, Mama's & Papas and Garage covers

    Bottom right is a local Austin Gospel LP bt Arnett Cobb...it's sealed....does anyone know this one and is it any good??

    Lower right is a weird Michel Legrand "Live At Shelley's Manne-Hole promo on Verve??

    I have that Michel LeGrand LP, not the promo though. That's weird how it's all white. Is the design embossed on the cover? Good LP, pretty solid Jazz piano from start to finish. But in saying that, I haven't listened to it for a few years.

    I've been after this since I heard the ranglin "surfing" track last year @ a friends house. Killa Season! PM Time.

    That Washington dude has a badass 45 of his own. Can't remember what it is, I was drunk when I heard it.

  • Options
    Only other thing I've seen with his name is a terrible late 70's LP by him.

    Caught some more goodness while trolling in the cold/rain.



    No matter how hard I look, I caan see no tattoo's.











    Smokin' Scientist/Coxsone set with a couple essential dubs from Horace ANdy's Bunny Lee work...and a nice persussion enhanced dub of the saem rhythm used for the Tamlin's "Baltimore".

    Sure you aren't thinking of Ge[/b]no Washington, K?

    Gino Washington is the Detroit legend who has a handful
    of highly sought-after releases on his own ATAC label.

    Most common title by him is the early track "Gino Is a Coward/Puppet
    on a String" which is on a couple of labels.

    Pretty sure he never released a proper LP on his own, but Norton Records
    put out 2 anthology LP/CD's on him just a few years ago.

    One release of his you may be familiar with is the 70's 45
    "Rat Race" on his ATAC label. He used the backing track of his
    own 60's track "Like My Baby" (itself a ripoff of a Temptations song)
    and put a new "socially concious" vocal over it. The reason I think you
    may know it is Kopp's had stock on it for years, that's where I got my copy.

    Geno Washington is the American emigre who recorded in the UK with a
    band of Brits, releasing a few soulful pop/rock LP's in the mid-late 60's
    that don't get very good reviews from those familiar with them. I know I have
    seen a late 70's LP from him as well.

    Yeah, got them mixed up. Think I've had a couple Gino washington's on Golden World????

    Here's a couple off ebay for relatively cheap:


    especially loving the joe gibbs, JA press. glad i got that leroy hutson as well, cuz my burned CD was getting a lot of play in the car. the eddie palmieri would probably sound better with a better system, considering there's a whole lot of sounds going on.

    I guess it's not technically the weekend anymore, but I got these over the weekend.

    I have another one from this guy and its great. I was hoping for a similar vibe and I was very pleased.
    here's a clip of "Baby Don??t cry go call Police"

    No border = 1973

    Border = 1977

    montreal diggery....times have changed but there was a decent selection at a few stores and some decent prices but i held back mostly. the clerks for the most part (french) were fucking assholes.

    1. a minty maggot brain for 20 bucks which was cool
    2. bu pleasant-ms bu
    3. eddie henderson- realization
    4. al gaffa-leblon beach (this has to be one of the best pablo records i have heard)

  • montreal diggery....the clerks for the most part (french) were fucking assholes.



    There's plenty of annoying, asshole, anglo record clerks in Montreal. In fact, the meekest record shop clerk I know of in Montreal is Francophone. Get off the main circuit.

    trippy - I thought for sure they'd stopped using the gold label in 68 or 69. I've had red label copies of funhouse though - which would still be earlier than the butterfly label.

    That Bohannon is seriously underrated. Always gets dismissed by the Stop and Go brigade. At least two bangers on there.

    From a distance at least, the label in that pic looks like an import (and the listing was German)

    Morrison Hotel probably came out around the same time and thats a red label
