some african records...two are from a thrift but the nel oliver and makossa 12" i got from the african record centre in brooklyn...i just sort of stumbled on this spot while biking around crown heights...what a crazy spot! dude that runs the place won't let you listen to records so i had to trust his descriptions. i know this place was picked over many years ago but still some cool stuff in the store and there are like 100 copies of the Lafayette Afro Rock 12" on makossa there still.
got this recently for 50 cents...it's not in the best shape but it plays...fantastic northern soul break up tune.
love this tune...a bit tricky to find on 12"...glad to find it at salvation army!
cerrone record from 1980...features "Hooked on You" which is like a $200 12" and is such a great disco boogie tune with jocelyn brown on vocals...lp has the same mix on the 12"...if you see this grab it!
crazy disco 12" from cleveland ohio...never seen it before...the a side is a roller skating jam but the b-side does it for me...rediculous breaks all over this...currently editing this.
i haven't had this record in over 10 years...goddamn it's good! curtis plus aretha....winning combo!
here's an odd one i found at this brooklyn salvation army the other day, it's one of the members of the last poets doing a rap about martin luther king over a electro boogie kind of beat...it's actually quite good! seems to be unknown on the net
Now I will just throw it in storage with my Fender Rhodes and Space Echo, Q Tron box, etc.
Yeah, mine's been collecting dust for years...Still cool to have though...
dude use that shit!!!!!
i have a DX at my practice space and it's pretty nice. what is the difference...what makes the dmx better?
They DMX is the one used in many a famous ealy hip hop tunes...the shaker is used on Run DMC, Slick Rick, Whodini, etc. etc. etc. Never used the DX, the DMX is alot more collectable though...Everybody uses sample CDs for these vintage drum machine sounds nowadays anyway, so there's really no reason to buy one unless you just like to collect shit like that or get one at a killer price like I did back in the day!!!
You said it... arnie lawrence masterpiece, two sides of jazz craziness! although don't ask me why but i enjoy children of all ages a journey to the center of the universe a lot more, but ya the other is def a harder find not even being a pricey one. This is the first time in a while i've found such a random wanted lp when it's nowhere on my radar.

nice finds, I will have to agree with you about the unobstructed universe lp, one of my fave random finds
mo' stuff... ^^La Lupe on Tico isnt the fire one might think, but its pretty cool anyway. Len Barry is soft white soul but theres some cool tracks nonetheless. Aubrey Mann covers otis and other greats. winston curtis is pretty relaxed but nice. same for barbara jones. evelyn + lucy is espanol christian folk but theres some cool guitar weirdness and generally its a pleasant listen. agustus pablo is a 1976 set of instrumentals on Alligator (usually a blues label). kinda feelin this shalamar, theyre not usually my bag. Nice ska collection on Mango. super tuff Seeds - and a mint copy. piano choir isnt supposed to have a colored cover, but whoever did it did a nice job!
also bought a big stack of james brown 45s, hoping for some upgrades, and a few other cool 45s. some:

hah! what thrift did you get the ali baba and endless life at? I'm 200% positive those rec's were mine 2 weeks ago. I unloaded them in Williamsburg after my day slanging rec's on the street. Needed to make some space in my spot.
also, I'll take a johnny colon off your hands. then it's like a fair trade.
I scored heavy at the Salvation Army on the other side of Brooklyn last week. Sealed or NM disco, including 4 or 5 on the TSOB label (Master Jay, Live LP, etc)

Damn dude. Nice score!
Not sure about rarity, but northern dudes tend to favor 45s. There's a copy of the 12 on ebay right now and it ain't cheap.

aand I got this
Is there a way I can make superpoaster posts appear stickied at the top of the screen? Or in my PM box?
Found this at a garage sale over the weekend among a bunch of pop bubblegum. 3 for $1 and most we're very clean.
that shit is hot. ive been waiting to come up on one for years. children of all ages related, right?
these look like fun.

5 to 10 euros sounds about right. Or free.

Last time I was there all the vinyl was gone. As in not one record in there. Did they move it???

sorry, my friends. I find strata east stuff about once in a blue moon so i tend to need them.
...and billy parker is a royal bitch to find by any measure. Not a music inc. superpoaster special.
I like music inc. but I was looking for billy parker for like 6 years before I found a reasonable copy.
