I do need to go hit up Jerry, it's been a hot minute. I did go to black and read recently, dug for 2.5 hours, bought 2 records.
warehouse of gold, lol, did you ever go to that place called "the finest" or whatever? I think they have one in greeley, and they have one in ft. collins as well. they have a "rare room" that is only open 10-4 like 3 days a week. come to find out it's full of your favorite elvis and beatles raers haha. hot garbage!
those towns smell too much like cow shit, i can't go there very often.

Ah, it didn't smell bad at Greeley. The warehouse was not open when I went, the store was fucking awful. I panned the store in the recordstorereview website, they suck. I did get a good sandwich next door while I was there though.
I found with Jerry, the more money you pull out of your wallet, the friendlier he got. It was an interesting line graph I could've drawn.
That Brenton Wood record is THEE SHIT for reasons having naught to do with "Psychotic Reaction". Check the title track, "Gimme Little Sign", "I'm The One Who Knows", and "Best Thing I Ever Had" for sweet Losangelino lowrider garage-soul.
I hit an out of the way thrift and found these:
I thought it would be near imposible to find that LP by Liza in the states since it's a Danish record.
I paid a visit to my Nigerian connection today and came away with some nice stuff at fair prices. Most of these were in nice playable condition too.
The bottom two in this pic I actually found in Santa Cruz the other day.
Tony Seymour is surprisingly good Island soul from the mid-60's. The Gary & Rich Brothers is a pretty interesting xian folk album with a few Bob Dylan covers that I bought for 10 cents this morning. The Jamal Akbar is from Pakistan and features some beautiful vibraphone work.
Real nice store walk in today. Two Steve Reid LP's (one sealed), a bunch of Japanese Blue Notes from the 70's, Roy Ayers, Gil Scott Heron, etc. All mint or close. Bought about 100 records. Keeping three:
Sure the hell beats my Saturday afternoon in the rain. I walked into a small shop for the first time, only to watch in horror as 2 Japanese buyers were pillaging the store. I mean, there was NOTHING left. I obligingly bought 2 things and left.

sounds like Masayuki and Toshi beat you to it!
hmmm, I don't know who you're talking about, but I didn't like them! haha.
M Market got a couple thousand LPs in but they were mostly shite - except for that Quintessence that I grabbed.. (I think I'm actually gonna keep this copy ) that has to be the 8th or 9th copy to turn up there.
But then we went to that new record store/sports betting pizza shop and did quite well. (Rerog hipped us to the spot. I'll PM you the details). But anyhow, for whatever reason that place had a bunch of $1 "hiphop digger" records like Lyn Christopher, Power of Zues, Sapo as well as some good but not necessarily rare soul/jazz LPs. Not too shabby of a trip overall.
and a few cheap LPs: Don Cherry- Hear & Now John Coltrane- Interstellar Space Nolan Strong & The Diablos- Fortune of Hits John Fahey- The New Possibility: John Fahey's Christmas Album Jewel feat. Dianne- Because It's You/In Search of Love 12" (Devastating)

it cant sound like the other axelrod stuff?

There's also Superfunk by Funk Inc. that had Axelrod production.

I prefer their earlier material.
a booker t and the mg's mo' onions/tictactoe 45, and a de la soul breakadawn/enfocus 45 (on the collectibles reissue label? odd).
that's it. plus a trick daddy single. i really need to go dig somewhere else.
Totally forgot that Superfunk is an Axelrod production. That is my favorite Funk Inc for sure.
To answer the previous question, all the records still sound like Funk Inc... not like Songs Of Experience or whatever.
Go to Black and Read. Or hit Jerry's basement. Or make it to the "warehouse of gold" in Greeley *laughs hysterically.

ha...i was thinking the same thing when i saw that pic!!
plus theres a beat on that lp too...
boscoe?
Pretty nice beat IMO. it's used by scratchmagic in mix along side bennys badekar, shubidua etc.
Price can be a bit unsteady for this from my expirience. I'd rate it at a little over $100 but it can go up to 200.

Nice Felas, too.
if you ever rip it let heads know and if you are tempted to sell contact yours truly

tell me this wasn't at the E*l**s shop?!
here's OKC (with a couple E*l**s thrown in)
PM sent.
It's in such bad condition I'm just gonna keep it.....my 45 collection consists of really rare records in really bad shape.
C - Found it at "Garage Sale City" just outside of Justin on the way to Cleburne.....$0.25
Looks like OKC was OK??
