It's been a pretty uninspiring couple weeks. But here's the meagre pickings I copped. 
The Agnostic Front is ltd on blue, CIV is also blue (maybe that's the only color that one came in though, have to check). Duane Eddy " Put A Little Love In Your Heart"; Frijid Pink "House Of The Rising Sun"; No Motiv is on purple (Nardcore!); Shocking Blue "Venus". 
Top right is Bobby Timmons "Sweet & Soulful", I was glad to upgrade that Maiden finally for cheap. Hope the records get better soon.

Damn, I always wanted that St. Ides tape. Isn't there a bootleg CD of that circulating? I wondered if the cassette was the source, or if it came from the masters. Most likely the former.
its like a cassette single. im gonna listen to it now. that and the purple tape were the top cassette finds. i have everything already but for a quarter a piece i was like fuck it.
Thrift stores around here are piling up with tapes, and I would buy a few if I had a cassette deck.
Does that St. Ides tape have the Wu one? I know there was a series of St. Ides tapes when they were doing the ads, and the one(s) with the Wu was one of only a few things I was never able to obtain when I was doing the U-WU.
it says on the back
Wu
Snoop
Cube
Warren G
Nate Dogg
MC Eiht
Scarface
That was the one. I always liked the MC Eiht track. Very cool to at least see that though. I'll have to head over to Goodwill tomorrow and see what lurks.

schooly D's LP
and a weird sly stone 12 i have never seen before. it says its from the "ten years too soon" LP (i'm unfamiliar) and its got sing simple song/dance to the music. longer versions. whats the deal? same session?

I think Sly re-recorded or someone remixed those tunes, disco'ed them up
a bit, to release on a Greatest Hits thing. And those are the versions on that 12".
I found one of those a little while back thinking I might able to flip it, but
little to zero interest when I listed it. It may have gone for like $5 or
something. Cool mixes though!
and i found these in my mailbox:
yeah,they aint bad.
Here's some of what's been popping up my way:
they didnt have the other ones. i had an album with all of em on it. i wish i knew what happened to it. it was bootleg as shit. and this one i got has that horrible tape flaw where the audio goes in and out. muffled to non-muffled. doesnt fade Warren G though haha

I actually bought about 25 dollar bin records out of Amoeba yesterday myself. A fairly clean copy of Gabor Szabo "Jazz Raga" for a buck? Yes please. I got some other cool stuff but can't remember what now (yes this was only yesterday but my memory isn't what it used to be).

Here are my take homes from the weekend:
Elvis Costello & the Attractions - Radio Radio ... Live in Toronto 3/78 (German bootleg) - great recording
Bob Dylan - Blonde on Blonde (Columbia mono) looks rough, plays pretty well. different mixes than the stereo release.
Sabu - Palo Congo (Blue Note) 70's Japanese press
Sonny Clark - Cool Struttin (Blue Note) 70's Japanese press. will have to do til I get an OG!
Joe Henderson - Mode for Joe (Blue Note) sealed 70's press
Anthony Williams - Life Time (Blue Note) sealed 70's press
Grant Green - The Final Come-Down (Blue Note)
Grant Green - Live at the Lighhouse (Blue Note)
Patrice Rushen - Before the Dawn (Prestige)
dude i hate to break it to you bro, but you done slept. especially with the five dollar price tag. it's some really groovy tropicalia niceness.
how is that Joe Thomas LP?
i dont have that one, i like something else by him i have...maybe a record with an carved head of ice on the cover? i think it was on groove merchant...came across it in the 90s
