Got a call today from my local jazz hating record dealer that he had some weird stuff for me to come look at! Eddie Kendriks - People Hold On - Never seen a UK copy of this?? Is it rare? A guy actually came into the shop with a bag of stuff to sell, the owner turned his nose up at it and invited me to have a look.Nucleus - SolarPlexus - Classic UK jazz rock LP - SpareDon Lang - Gets the Bug - Don't know any thing about Mr Lang. Was informed by fellow customer that he was one of the first UK rockers and that he was lame! This has cool covers of Watermelon Man and Sidewinder.Clarke Boland Big Band - Graet jazz with Sahib Shihab amongst others. Great live version of The Girl and the Turk.Billy Taylor - OK Billy - One great big band funky jazz track. - SpareDizzy Gillespie - Souled Out - Loads of great food based tracks on here inc Pot Licker, Chicken Giblets, etc - SpareCan - Tago Mago - Crazy German electronic psych jazz weirdness. To quote from the sleeve, "They are a big group in the German Underground where a few years ago, before its Liberty release, people were paying ??6 or more for private pressings of Monster Movie." Wonder what this goes for now!Dudley Moore - Dudley - Double LP comp of his best tracks includes the great scat jazz of Waltz for Suzy and the madness of the theme from Bedazzled.Cal Tjader - Sever Shades of Jade - Great Eastern tinged jazz conducted by Lalo.Donald Byrd - UP - Jazz Scat veriosn of Blind Man, Blind Man, Canteloupe Island, etc. Awesome!Don Harper - Homo Electronicus - Crazy version of theme from Doctor WhoRonnie Scott - Live at Ronnies - Great swinging Jazz LPErnie Wilkins - Screaming Mothers - Second one of these I've found in the last week. Great Big Band Funk! - Spare

    Nice scoop on the Soul Heaven 'Friends' on Crash.

    Still trying to work out the rarity of that issue, assuming it's the first press before Twinight.

    Is that an Otis Goodwin 45 peeping out from underneath? Underrated side, which used to be findable in piles out in the Pennsyltucky countryside. Not so much anymore...
  • Jonny_PaycheckJonny_Paycheck 17,825 Posts
    Yep, Otis Goodwin on Jazz.

    ^^^ is that OG or the reish??? pretty big find for an OG! ^^^


    Anyway, quick pre-snow daytrip up the coast turned out worth it:



    Kilroy was actually one of the cheapest of the lot, and is clean.
    Think I have a hookup for a clean cover on the Them, and the vinyl is NM-

    That Mersey Beat was a personal white whale, 1964 Columbia set
    of awesome scarce beat tracks, sound "live" in-studio, but no corny
    crowd overdubs or muddy Cavern recordings, solid great-sounding
    stuff and mostly rockabilly covers. White label, too.

    Kinda feeling the Thumbs, random one I took a chance on, 1979
    Kansas power-pop/new wave thing with Dylan-style vocalist.

    I know people hate on West but I liked this one - way better than
    the self-titled one, too. Sounds like the Association meets country rock.
