    my boy Phast Phreddie organizes this... (in case you don't know, dude is on that other level, where he is the don for 50/60's r&b and soul and back in the day, the first Runaways gig was in his parent's living room) anyways, these sales are a good place to pick up some decent stuff for cheap, fill some gaps in the collection for a good cause, but nothing amazing... at least not for cheap... like, tbey had the MC5 7" of "looking at you" from 66, inna picture sleeve, but shit was like 50 bucks....
