    For a guy named "obscure addict" you sure buy alot
    of non-obscure Herbie Mann and Bill Cosby records!

  • shitzrshitzr 648 Posts
    all really cheap


    the seeds record is not to be confused with the sky saxon band. it's a xian new age record with plenty of vibes and rhodes out of the bay area.
    side two of that audio directions KILLS! brasillian influenced midtempo funky jazz with female vocals.
    the others are dupes.


    the arthur davis record is raw.
    the jheri cover is misleading.
    my girl anasarca (holler!) broke that lui record. commands lemuria loot, but doesn't match up with the music. sought after for its rarity and the track oh oh.


    the louis x record is actually louis farrakhan. outta sf.
    anyone have a spare cover for the minott
    the sage record is out of san jose with an uptempo funky horn rock track, and a nice ballad on the flip.

  • I buy whatever's in front of me what can i say, I just hardly find "obscure" pieces dirt cheap out in the field, most of those are by appointment only secret squirel status.

    still no digital camera, but here's what ive aquired over the last week or so:









    plus the new roll deep 12" ('celebrate' - an awesome gulity pleasure), an old Nino Ferrer 'best of' including "le telefon" etc..., some stuff i cant remeber now im at work and a bunch of 80's library records that all suck balls. im gona stop wasting my money on these stupid library records!!

    havimng said that... the telemusic library record is brilliant -- composers are Guy Pederson, Raymond Guiot and Janko Nilovic - its the most consistantly enjoyable lib i own (which isnt saying much as i only own about 10) - every track is a winner - includes the awesome "flutes ad libitium" from that CD that came with the 'music library' book.

    I was curious about that. Is it avant-garde?

    I'm listening to it right now. No ill braekz yet. It actually seems a little . 'How Can I Live' is decent, and there's an almost jazzy breakdown in 'Mr. Moonshine' that leads to a nice outro.


    edit - Yeah, it's kidna academic. Look up Steve Reich; he's a good one. 'New York Counterpoint', 'Electric Counterpoint', some train thing, he's got a lot of really nice stuff. It's not hard to find on CD. He also worked w/ Pat Matheny, so most of his records were on ECM, which is distressingly common.

    yeah, i suppose.... its a classic bit of contemporary, minimalist stuff. pretty sure its from the late 70's. all recorded live (i think .. boy, i need to get my facts straight!!) and with 18 musicinas all playing different 'pulses' and patterns with a bell bringing in each new change. the first bit of Steve Reich i ever heard and still my favourite by a long way.

    music for 18 musicians

    the record he did with Methany - "electric counterpoint" is also a pretty awesome listen. its been sampled by RJD" for his track "the proxy". it's not quite as ace as 'music for...'

    Now that I think about it, didn't the Orb use it for 'Little Fluffy Clouds'?

    I tried to get a thread going on happy end a while back, personal fav. That's a later pressing I assume?

    I tried to get a thread going on happy end a while back, personal fav. That's a later pressing I assume?

    I missed that thread, Ill have to dig it up. I love Happy End. One of my fav Japanese bands. Everything they touch is gold IMO.
    That 45 I posted is a URC Various Artists that was pressed in 1998, but as far as I can tell, I dont think it's a re-issue. I guess someone decided to print this 45 a quarter of a century later Seems to a be a bit on the rare side too.

    A-side is Happy End's Kaze O Atsumete from their second album (such an awesome track...one of my favs from the album). The B-side is by Hayakawa Yoshio who I dont know much about.

    "el topo las manos del campo"lp!! Funny! The owner of the record barn I shop at is selling this piece for 60 to 80 usd's & every copy he gets is scratched up or warped. The gamers in the diggin' game are on that

    this is in my top 5 records to get high to. ive been loving this album for a decade.

    holmes- i just got that cali soul 2 as well. on the cd there is no liner notes for david glover. are there notes on him on the LP? he was a writer/prod for local bay area groups. he worked with the diabolics and soft touch. real nice guy. track is okay.

    what you think of the rest of it?
