As a medium for discovering records, it was far inferior to spending time with a knowledgeable, friendly dealer (which is often inconvenient for most of those who don't live in SF or NYC),
You know what I was thinking about though Tom? There's record shows all over the country, most of them are easy enough to find out about. Why not go for a day and just sift through 45s? Pull out random unknown LPs and check em on the portable? Do people care enough to do that? Or is there not enough payoff to make it worth it? I don't know, people sit on this site all day when they could be scouring for records. Get ta diggin!
I just feel like people are too lazy now. The days of finding unknown and great records is so close to being over... which on the one hand is great, I mean, it's so much easier to sell certain titles, of course there are those under-the-radar pieces I can swoop at the flea or the show or whatever but honestly I wish people were a little more enterprising. Not like it used to be.
my pussy is just sore cause my computer crashed and I lost all that music. I'll be bothering peoples on here for copies of Lovelites, & Boscoe on mp3 (no no reish)

in all honesty this is one of the reasons I jumped into modern soul. It was a genre I knew nothing about and couldn't find much info on either. I was able to "discover" a lot of music without too much outside influence or hype.

but there are still so many foreign countries full of indigenous people whose music has not been totally co-opted. there's still plenty of unknown treasures!

Damn!!! "here today, gone today" and Reynaldo was putting in so much work it's a shame for it to go to waste like that.Oh well i enjoyed it while it lasted.
work and Reynaldo are two words that should not be in the same post
It was fun while it lasted, I heard some stuff I liked, some stuff I didn't. As a medium for discovering records, it was far inferior to spending time with a knowledgeable, friendly dealer (which is often inconvenient for most of those who don't live in SF or NYC), and somewhat inferior to listening to a DJ put together a well thought out set (with playlist--fuck a coverup). I did like that it blew the hype out of some records and into some others.
I seriously beleive that it's becoming way too easy for everybody now. Boscoe "ehhh" East of Underground "ehh"... ya'll are getting desenitized to music you would jack off to if you foound it out in the field, Get out there and dig!

never underestimate the power of an industry insider.
