From the last ten days or so: The Meditation Singers (top right) may be the best gospel album I own. Amazing stuff. On Jewel from 1972. and finally this came into the store this morning (worked out a trade for it):
Comments
here's some stuff ive got recently -- some in trade, some off t'internet and others from the charities:
really enjoying the Advancement LP -- its great. havent listened to a few of the others yet.
the 7's above are:
45 KING - "900 number" (vocal)
SUZI QUATRO - "space cadet" (rubbish)
MAESTRO FRESH WES - "let your backbone slide"
RATTLES - "the witch" (ace!!)
and these are a bunch of french 7's i got for a few euros each. a few are doubles so i'll whack them in the trade section:

*[insert Niagara 1st, Mombasa 1st & 4th, Freddie Hubbard The Night Of The Cookers Vol.1, Guisando as Fania Venezuelan press, Dave Pike 1st on mps and others...]
Today I found Danny Krivits "Rock The House Pt. 1/2" plus some white labels from the early 80???s and a one sided prince live recording, the runout says ???HR 5 ??? A???. Does anyone have any info on that, real prince heads might know the deal?! Thanks in advance!
was in terrible shape, but after much cleaning, sounds quite fine! for $0
can't believe it took me this long to get this one
Indo-Jazz Suite is an all-time fave of mine.
Good, I got the right one. I played it out last Saturday night and had two people come up and ask me about it.
Anyway, that Meditation Singers album is a true favorite
of mine. "Good Ole' Gospel Music" is a mixtape staple.
That Triangle - Peut-Etre Demain is pure fire, but the LP mix sounds way better than the 45 for some reason.
AMAZING album. Some parts sound like old Funkadelic to me.
- Experience Unlimited - s/t (Black Fire)... this is amazing.
- Fred Wesley & The JBs - Damn Right.. (German press)
- Etta Jones - Don't Go To Strangers (Prestige)
- 3 Pieces - Vibes of Truth
- Backlash - s/t (Sphere Records DC funk/disco jammy, pretty dope)
- Jimmy Ross - First True Love Affair 12"
- Gwen McCrae - Keep The Fire Burning 12"
- Spanish Fly & Terrible Two - Spanglish 12" (Enjoy)
- Tony Lee - Reach Up 12" (Radar)
i was fortunate enough to witness a full blown rosen explosion, even though it was at the expense of my host (yo i know you'll get that h n p's 45 sooner or later). anyways, there are grails for days at that spot but i didn't bother building a stack because of what i've heard about his absurd pricing. but doe dug deep in the trunk of his stupid fresh ride
and hooked up
then 2 hours after getting off the plane back in the bay i stopped by a spot on the way home and pulled
yeah -- i love botht sides of that 7. which album is it originally on? the one with the burning piano on the cover? - i havent got that LP of theirs.... ive only got the one where the band are up against a firing squad on the cover. great album.
It's the best Meditation Singers album IMO. The Stepney-produced Bad Apple LP is the one everyone goes for but this is the real gem in their catalogue. Feel It is the really tough album to find on vinyl but it has a couple of great tracks. Don't You Want To Go is also nice.
rehash - spring 1980/roots & rivulet
rehash - the extended player ep
rehash - disco 33
Nice finds... Backlash is the shit.
Syl Johnson - Come On Sock It To Me upgrade
Darrell Banks - Somebody Needs You
Bettye Swann - Make Me Yours
Booker T - Soul Dressing
Meters - Ease Back upgrade
And a real nice Andrew Hill too!
So good and a little on the grimey side!!! Between the recording and their voices, this is sweet and raw and soulful through and through. This is my favourite girl group record of the moment.
