All except the Boz Skaggs which I got in a trade....Swedish only LP from '65!!!!!
Captain Beefheart - The Spotlight Kid

How is the Southwest FOB???
East Texas pop psych with a cover of WCPAEB's "Smell Of Incense" being the highlight...pretty weak overall and I believe England Dan and/or John Ford Coley were in the band.
Other than that a Larry Harlow "Heavy Smoking" & Joe Bataan "Gypsy Woman" (gold label on both).
Raj, Drewn, Faux_Rillz, Otis Funkmeyer all fell through the shop... 3D soulstrut like whoa. Both Raj & Faux_Rillz showed up real heavy with the trades and shit. Good looking out yall.
Hey, Jonny_Paycheck
Is this Gil's record a brazilian edition?
I ask you because at that time (1970) brazilian records were not sealed.
Anyway, this is a very nice record.
Peace
I'm pretty sure I'll be stopping by on December 3rd.
I should of went to NY this weekend (southwest flies there right?) One day I plan to make out with all the above named people.
Weekend finds out here are nothing worth mentioning. Trades are fulfilling my wants for now.
...more details to come...
i have a similar record(maybe the same) that is an early 70s french issue.
It is a Brazilian mono edition. It is entirely possible that it was resealed at some point.
One side is mint, the other is E, with a couple of light paper scuffs... a sure sign of resealing!
Damn dude,your "finds" posts are scary.Nice job on the Sam Apple Pie and Tractor.
What's up with the Finalmente Lp??
the ltd. edition- livingston goldin duo looks fascinating.
i need to drop you a line- is email at rockadelic or PM through this board, the easiest way?
hope all is well. hoping to get up that way in three weeks or so depending....
45's
fancy - wild thing (big tree) I can't believe I never heard this song before. I read it charted in 74...news to me...I dig it
joe cuba - sock it to me/oh yea (tico)
dorothy moore - here it is (malaco) I see this 45 all the time. Still looking for a super clean version. I love this song !!!
pointer sisters - yes we can can (blue thumb)
lp's
james brown - hell
james brown - the payback
traffic - welcome to the canteen (always wanted this record. got it for a buck)
herbie hancock / willie bobo - succotash (blue note)
the impressions - three the hard way ost !!! (curtom)

I got to rent 3 the hard way again. It's been awhile since I've seen that shit. Heading out tomorrow, hopefully more scores.
Pretty straight Jazz LP by Renzo Fraiese on the AVI label from '78...nothing special.
Might want to get to know them better before you book tickets.
Ari.....best way is [email]Rockadelic@sbcglobal.net[/email] I think I can get you into that African stuff....just give me a few days notice.
The Livingston-Goldin is Florida Lounge......two man, drum/piano lounge acts rarely sound good....this is no exception.
Rich

Pharoah sanders on ESP Disk, thirty days out is sealed so i have no clue yet,
Reich, Alla Rakha has a ton of sweet tabla solos, early (local rochester?) gap
mangione, brand nubian 12".
LOUDNESS, thats the 1st neil diamond and ten times cooler than you might think,
lighthouse again (this ones the best of the bunch in my opinion), mysterious gospel
record with sweet cover, barnaby bye wah wah mandolin kookiness, 1st tavares - this
is a great record!, adderly awesomeness, lee morgans 1st, harold melvin classic,
Goddo's 1st, later new birth ("not as nice as their earlier efforts but still full
of tasty bits!" DGA would say), white witch's 1st evil brew.
4 chill LeGrands, alan vega on celluloid, one of those 'get kids to clap and stamp
their feet' records, gentle giant on vertigo, Budgie's 1st, Mottola e-z mellow
niceness, Blue Things OG press - NICE pop/psyche - grab a reissue or youll be
waiting a long time for a cheap one, bob seger's 3rd(?) and by far the hardest one
to find of the early pre "turn the page" (i.e. actually good) Seger (1st copy ive
ever found), Budgie again.
kiddie/novelty record craziness all obtained for one low money. i have boxes of this
stuff, i dont know why i like it so much.
nothing super great, but just a nice happy selection of good soul+funk, it was cool
that it was all together like this, whoever had it had good taste.
I can't believe I'm the first one to say this, but AYO!!!!!
In all my years of Stax digging I still haven't found a copy of the Southwest FOB or the Mighty Joe Hicks. The Joe Hicks is sick! Scored the Up,Up,and Away joint a month ago...that record is super panned. Tom & Jerry is Simon & Garfunkel if you didn't know. But, maybe not this one...the Rated X thing might not be them.
That Dave Van Ronk is one of my favorite Folkways. "Tell Old Bill" can make a brother cry.
Thanks Good fam and random flea market dude.
