    Damn, what's up with all the Har-You's popping up lately?! Are these NY finds? Who was it that pulled a sealed one not too long ago?

    local radio station is JUST NOW getting rid of their vinyl. picked everything in this photo up for $45 last night, got another stack waiting there today. havent been through the 45s or 12"s yet. stoked to finally have a lot of this stuff.



    by the way that HAZE lp is for sale if anybodys interested. the cover is water damaged but the disc is basically unplayed.

    Hey, its ako! and WOW...what a haul! Did you get the severed hand from the radio station too?
  • akoako https://soundcloud.com/a-ko 3,419 Posts
    nah, thats been making the round at my house. the stack thats still at the show is primarily obscure 60s/70s rock acts and 60s/70s jazz i'd been neglecting. the first 45 box i went through was ALL WLP motown....im excited to see whats in the other 10 boxes of 45s. probably some iowa punk stuff i can sell my friend for a 100000% mark-up...haha

    yo what the helllll, is the station run by meth heads???! how could they possibly be straight up giving shit away in this day and age? anyway, more power to you buddy, i bet you were getting chills at each crate and pinching yourself to make sure the shit wasnt a dream or a prank.

    if the headless heroes is smashed, holler cause i need a cover!!

    is that skull thing the Loudermilk LP? i dont remember it being good, but let me know if you hear something cool on it.
    the melvin sparks 75 is a gem. great comeups!! keep posting pics!

    ako...whats the moustachio dude right next to fredie hubbard and uncle shelly?

    crabcrab...how is that lee gagnon? jeremie moves?
  • akoako https://soundcloud.com/a-ko 3,419 Posts
    the mustache dude and the black and white one after it are both Shel Silverstein lps...

    yeah man. the dudes running the sale are younger than me and dont know shit about music. they were flipping out about finding the first king crimson album and some eddie murphy shit. today when i looked through all the 45 crates i was literally one of TWO dudes checking them out of the like, 30-35 people in the room. it was insane.

    i'll post a pic in a second of todays finds. not as exciting. invited my dad up and he pulled "things we like" which has been a white whale of mine for years!!! cant believe i missed it yesterday somehow. anyway i told him if he doesnt dig it i'm his dude. i dont know why that thing has been so impossible for me to locate. ive only wanted it for 12 years....

    exactly! thats why i was flipping out. i actually did pinch myself last night to confirm it wasnt a dream. pulling headless heroes and ramp out of boxes for 50 cents a pop, with only ONE other dude in the room, at around midnight. it was surreal.

    that rattles 45 is insane. i knew i'd heard of it, but god damn.

  • pcmrpcmr 5,591 Posts
    glad you got these..now make more great beats!
    that 45 is great
    you would think a 50c radio sale would be awesome enough...but headless hero it seems like a dream...happy for you

    yeah mirlos is peruvian cumbia and that cover is also black but i've never seen the brown!
    that release just seems to have a mystique about it

    No, much more on the Jazzzz tip.

    Lotsa nice Pharoah in the haul, and probably clean.

    Some long-time wants crossed off the list! Although I could probably use an upgrade on the Awakening.

    That was me who found that sealed Har-You LP. It's a LP that was out of New York City so it's not impossible for copies to turn up in the Tri-State area.

    Here are my latest cheap real world finds.


    This is my second copy of Lyman Woodard I found in the field. 2012 is still doing it for me with the come ups!
  • akoako https://soundcloud.com/a-ko 3,419 Posts

    Damn Ako even my dreamworld finds have rinked records and LPs in the wrong sleeves, and never this kind of depth...
