first of all, thank you Raj for re-flamadablating the server!kind of a nice "killing me softly" on the swing choir record.hummingbird has Purdie, airto, etc. Liz Damon = odd illness, hubbard = WLP. black blood = all smoke no fire.kokosingers = whitebread acapella mens group, sweet 'in my room'. that electric prunes: they grew a set!charlie christian = WOW jazz guitar.jon gibson avant-weird. Sonny Simmons on ESP Disk = free jazz fyahnever seen a WLP columbia mingus before.Eckers covers pick up the pieces + others - kinda Stieg-ish. Sabbath boot, ok sound. wheels of time is one of those hare krshna/george harrison type things.moe koffman is amazing but this copy had the "fall/winter" disc only - the other one was Lighthouse Live! %$#%@^#!looks like trouble... but......read: sub langley school project shanty rock/chorus and 2 tracks by shakey basement suburban rockers to boot. "rock your baby" is nice n twisted.4 x 78rpm sound effect records for radio shows, neat stuff.20 of these vietnam comps, bought directly from a vet who scooped 'em from the radio station on base when they packed up and bailed out in '74.the mix of material on these things is NUTS, from al martino right into the meters, etc...

    Rode out to Scarborough passing through the neighbouring Indian community on my way out.



    Passed by a shop I'm very freindly with - picked up some nice stuff that's held for me

















    30 km or so later deep in the heart of desolate Scarborough...





    There's a Roti joint in every strip mall. I'll get you guys pics of the drive-thru one near my Granmother's next time. Canada's only Drivethru Roti place? Likely.



    Record store wallpaper at my buddy's place.





    BArrington's best 12. Accompanying dub is delicious.



    Indy soul cover 45 from the bronx? I'll buy that.



    Think this is Jamaican.



    Sly and Robbie put a spin on "Don't Stop The Music"



    Nice boogie thing.



    Gorgeous T.O. 12







    Dread take on ALton Ellis's "I'm Just a Guy"



    Don't know if this is legit or not, but it's good.



    Classics.



    Another ill TO 12.

    And what was wating for when I returned home 8 hours later...





    and a phone call to go pick up these (a sample of the 85 reggae LP's and 12's I bought this dude).



    K in Canada.

    that Ken Boothe (bunny lee prod., bottom of the last pic) is a killer.

    I agree. The look of it at first had me hesitant. Lots of remakes of his classic Studio 1 material.

    Gene & Jerry's cover of "Take This Woman of the Corner" is
    one of my top-ten all-time favorite tracks. Totally en fuego.

    I swear Gene Chandler helped invent hip hop on that track.

    Doubters can check the cadence and report back.

    Shitzr, if you wanna sell that Swamp Dogg, would you holler?

    Killer scores.

    Not many records today at the flea market, but good ones:

    Budgie: IN FOR THE KILL LP (promo) $2 FINALLY!!!!!
    Young Gents: Good Things Come In Small Packages 45 (promo) $1.50
    Cloud One: Spaced Out 12" (sealed) $2
    Eddie Floyd: Baby Bye 45 $1.50
    Jim Majure: Go On Fool 45 $1.50

    BTW the only online mention I could find of that last one was this:
    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Northern-Soul-Jim-...9QQcmdZViewItem

    Was this seller out of his mind or is this really a somewhat rare 45?

    I also scored this great found photo with the Budgie album:

    Random come-ups from the past week:



    Feminine Complex was a true eBay "score" - buy-it-now for under $10 around
    10 minutes after it was listed. Graded "VG" but turned out to be a pretty
    flawless copy, most people would have said "VG++" Check audio below for a taste.
    Couple of terds here, to be honest - at least, the Debbie Au LP
    looked really promising, and has a crack studio team incl. Carol Kaye and
    Paul Humphrey, but is pretty bleh - and the Johnny Hammond was not blowing
    me away, although I didn't give it a full listen. Rainy Daze on the other
    hand is an awesome garage/psych album, with a number of dope tracks. Audio
    below for that one, as well - Hangmen is more 60's garage goodness, finally
    found a cheap and clean copy of Soulfinger after around 20 years of looking,
    and my favorite of them all might be the Arsenio Rodriguez...it's like the
    18th pressing, but I don't really care, I just want to hear that CUBAN FIRE.





    45's from a local spot and from a trade with a fellow Strutter (thanks, E*ic!)
    A couple of wants off the list and a couple of interesting finds. Audio below
    for two of these - A.C. Reed is a classic funky twist on "Tramp" and the Mob
    is an odd one...starts off sounding godawful, but give it a chance, it gets
    better and better...my stylus is getting rough and you hear it at the end of the
    Mob track, but I didn't think it was too bad. Fuzz Acid & Flowers says
    The Mob were a travelling show band out of Vegas with a glitzy rock/soul revue,
    and it shows...



    Rainy Daze - In My Mind Lives a Forest

    Feminine Complex - Hide & Seek

    A.C. Reed - Boogaloo Tramp

    The Mob - Disappear

    Damn...I wish I knew how to download a clip...."I've Got A Bag Of My Own" is a JB cover, "What Is Soul" is a Tower Of Power sound-alike....."Skidmore Shuffle" and "Branded" are pretty good straight ahead funk cuts.....honestly, nothing on here sounds Hee-hawish in the least???

    I wasn't trying to imply that this album was country...I have a copy of this one too and it's definitely funky stage band stuff...I was just sayin that they have another one that is 180 degrees totally different in sound.

    Musta been trying to land a gig in Branson!!!!

    The vocals on this one are weak....David Clayton Thomas-like....but the band is pretty good.

    since i was curious i did the math (Windows XP calculator) and you spent 54 cents on each record.

    the consequence for pressing the snooze button on your alarm clock one too many times on the morning of a record show is watching someone pull a minty o.g. copy of lee fields "let's talk it over" for $8 right in front of you.

    anyway...

    the come ups ($2 to $5)







    the bargains (50% or more below market price)



    the "f*ck it, at least i don't have to pay for shipping"
