this was sparked by the outsider music thread.anybody got an original pressing?my art teacher in high school let me borrow a CD of this once and i dont think i was...ready for it. but i listened to this again recently and its some fucking great shit. id love to have an original but im guessing they are literally impossible to find. anybody know what the run was on this? 100? haha

    The original is on Third World... it's very, very rare... it's like a $1K+ record. There are (I think) two reissues, one from the early 80's and one from the late 80's or 90's - and even they go for a bit of money now.

    i happily 'settled' for the 1980 reissue on Red Rooster/Rounder. $1200 vs. $30, it wasnt too hard to accept!
    even the '80 pressing is getting very hard to find "in the field".

    I had no idea the Rounder reissue was bringing $$$$. Some of them on Popsike sold for close to 100 with lots of bids. Even $30 is a lot of an 80s reish, I would have thought.

    The single of "My Pal Foot Foot" on Fleetwood*** is even rarer.

    [color:red]***Fleetwood is, or was, a Revere, MA label known mainly for sports discs that they'd advertise in DC Comics, although those in the know claim they released some credible garage 45's in the sixties. [/color]

    So, what other records on Red Rooster/Rounder/Philo/Flying Fish/Alligator... bring more than $6-$15?

    Fleetwood also released a Zouk record called Gemini 5 which is dope and some loner girl shiznit.
