There's about 25 Olivia records sitting at the Goodwill and I forgot my portable. I've had bad luck in the past, but I've been told there are good ones. Anybody know?Thank you.

    if theyre like a dollar or so... get them all and the ones you dont like you can group together as an auction. lesbian records always sell well for me... and i get them things all the time.

    Are you talking about the label which is primarily features lesbian musicians?
    Well there's Linda Tillery-S/T but you may very well already know about that.

    Then there's BeBe Kroche which is (maybe I need to give this another listen).

    Baba Yaga got the ill drum break and 2 or 3 cuts that I dig.

    Other than that, I don't know.

    Shit if they're like a dollar a record, get 'em all.

    thanks

    All of these records are in VA, correct? I'm asking because if Olivia is based in CA (correct me if I'm wrong), then how did you find so many out there?

    It was basically the ONLY feminist/Lesbian record label back then (well, they also distro'ed some tinier ones), so I'm sure they did a healthy mail-order business all over the country... I don't think they're RAER anywhere.

    But yeah, Linda Tillery, Mary Watkins and Baba Yaga (which isn't on Olivia proper) are the only ones to bother with unless you're trying to make beats out of em...

    This is about the fiftyleventh time we've had this thread

    Yeah I find them all over the country, and never one at a time - like the whole damn catalog as well as plenty of Meg Christiansen or whatever and that fucking Lavender Jane record that some tool tried to pawn off as loner shit

    speaking of lesbian records, anyone ever heard the Malvina Reynolds LP on Century City? Other release on the label has me curious, but other Malvina records have me not so. Crink?

    Makes sense.

    Pretty accurate, even though I tried to make beats with Baba Yaga and Linda Tillery

    Someone give me a late pass.

    Since I moved to granola country, the whole Olivia catalog is about as raer as women who don't shave.



    Baba Yaga seems a bit tougher to find though.

    ohhh ohhh! I like Malvina Reynolds, but didn't know there was on on Century City. cool!

    Naw, those three would be the MOST eligible for sampling, I meant you probably shouldn't touch the REST of the catalog unless you're trying to make beats with it...

    Yeah a dealer I know has it and I want it but I don't want to venture the sum he wants on something I've never heard.

    You like Malvina? uh....

    haha! I think NorCal is getting to me. But her record on Columbia gets a lot of play.

    I like Malvina Reynolds. Great songwriter and person. Please don't buy any if you are looking for more than clever folk songs sung by an old woman.

    i am swimming in malvina records. the covers with grey-haired Malvina playing the guitar definitely indicate that it could be a super funked out psych experience! Alas, it is just folk songs sung by an old woman.

    Do you have the LP on Century City?

    I've had some private press Malvina's. I'm not sure if I have had that one. I don't think I have any right now.

    Yeah, Century City is just a small indie, not a private like the other records I've had by her. I like mellow lesbofolk but I can't really fuck with Malvina.

    Cris Williamson -- The Changer and the Changed has been an erryday listen for the past month. I highly recomend it. Should be easy to come by.
