    hey rockadelic, hows that "high tide?" It has one of the guys from The Misunderstood and is supposed to be some good folk psychness. Riverside California represent.

    Dude you got Humble Gathering!

    I've been finagling with a local shop owner for that
    album for a minute now ... he won't sell it, but also seems
    to get pleasure in rejecting very reasonable trades...

    ...that record is dope.

    This is the UK High Tide from '69 on Liberty....sounds like a heavier Jethro Tull with a Violin instead of a Flute.

    R***, that selection of records just appears far too proggy for your tastes.

    Sorry no porn.

    The Ramrods - Soultrain Pts 1 & 2 (Rampage)
    Little Royal and the Swingmasters - Razor Blade b/w Jealous (Tritus? Tri Us?)

    All instr except Jealous. I haven't made mp3s yet, but i can up if anyone wants to hear.

    Two days ago I had to take photos of a local pub sign to make some Illustrator art for it. The sign itself was located in the basement of this pretty cool new hipster thrift store in Durham NC, so after I went to the basement and took the photos, I took a quick look at the couple hundred of LPs they had for sale in the store. The few dozen 45s they had were destroyed, and I was getting really discouraged at the overall lack of quality of the LPs, but something told me to keep looking. Good thing.

    Five minutes and $8 later I had this in my hands:



    When I got it home I found it had some deep scratches marring 2-3 songs, but what the fuck. It's an otherwise clean and good moder soul album and I played it at the bar gig that night.

    What's up man. The Electric Blender??? I turned that thing over three or four times. It looked raer, possibly expensive, and I thought not very good. I saw the nicks and figured I'd be putting it in the already full "bad records I could sell if they weren/t f*cked up" box.

    Should I be reporting to the Grails I Missed Thread.

    And so as not to hijack...I bought Neil Young's "On the Beach"

    sap fellas. came upon an interesting purchase today. big box of some marked and some unmarked homemade reel to reels. at least three have some good local unreleased authentic 60s garage recordings. sadly as far as i can tell it's all covers. but some of them are really solid, imo. i'm no garage rock connosirrrrrr but i'd like to hear what some people think of this. vocals are rough, playing amateurish, but aint that half the appeal? i guess what i'm asking is- would this stuff be appealing to anyone and who? or just some local novelty find that's cool to get?



    YSI download links:
    - "Higher and Higher"
    - "Make a Noise Like Love"

    Any thoughts?

    my weekend finds are only of the mailbox variety so far, but they were cheap so...

    Bob Dorough- Just about Everything [/b](Focus mono OG )goddamn i love this record
    Bob Dorough- Yardbird Suite [/b](Bethlehem)
    Ahmed Abdullah- Life Force [/b](Abouttime)
    Walt Dickerson- Sense of Direction [/b](Prestige/New Jazz) (i could actually use some help on this one- i took a chance cause this set sale list had this listed as a sealed copy for real cheap, and i knew it was a vintage press. Turns out, it looks like a French pressing, it has some additional cat #s and says 'distribution Carrere' on it. its not a pasty cover, more like a 'foldy', definitely not a current 8.99 Dustygroove jawn. anyway it's sealed and up for grabs if anyone wants it, great album...)
