The funky side of LA?

soulgeek

Hi fellow Strutters,

a short request for all you specialists and fellow addicts: Any good suggestions for soul funk collectors in LA, Las Vegas and SoCal? I'm talking record stores, flea markets, clubs, concert venues etc. We 'll be heading to the west coast on 8.11. and already checked the ss-city guide. Stuff like Record Surplus, Records LA, Atomic Records or Funky Sole sounded interresting - but most of the postings are not that recent. So we wanted to double check ...

Any suggestions guys?

Cheers, NJ

Amoeba.

Thanks Nerd Alert! That's been on the list for sheer size alone ;-)
Anything else?

You're hitting the west coast on 8.11? August 11?

Record Jungle is probably the first place you want to go

Co-sign on Records L.A.

I'd also recommend Poo Bah and the PCC Swap Meet if you make it all the way out to Pasadena

Thanks King! 8. November that is - forgot that we have a different way of shortening dates in central europe ;-)

Record Jungle looks very good. Poo Bahas well - sounds like a legendary well elected boutique store. And my heart is seriously breaking that we are going to miss the PCC Swap Meet. OMG.

Great tipps and very spot on - deeply appreciated. Many thanks!
