the EDEN's CHILDREN is pretty fun jazzy, meaty popsike with some nice drums..
and there's a few cracking breaks amongst the 45's...
It's a Haitian kompa record and if nzshadow finds that he's not all that into it, he's going to be sending it to me...for I've been on a hunt for that particular one for a while now.
DAMN.
How do you like that Andy Robinson? I just picked it up a week or
two ago. I thought the mellow folky stuff was pretty awful, but there
are a few really excellent rockish tracks on there.
Also never seen that Surfaris before, not a huge surf fan but that looks
pretty good, nice tracklist - I like when surf bands do folk-rock stuff.
The Surfaris was a nice surprise. It has nice versions of Satisfaction and Shakin All Over on it.
So, you grabbed the Garota de Ipanema ost.
Are you feeling it?
Anything good?
Peace
if you're talking about the APHRODITE's CHILD - it's the heaviest shit ive heard in a little while!!!

It's a pretty nice bossa collection. Nothing crazy but definitely worth having and playing.
why that particular one? It's actually a european repackaging of the original issue of one of Shleu-Shleu's releases here in the U.S.... i forget which one though... remember double checking the tracklisting.
Field find or e-find?
Peace
Cheap e.
The Young Holt is a local pressing - and surprisingly crisp and meaty sounding too - most local editions from the time of release are kind of thin and shitty.
Talking of local the Roger Fox is a NZ classic - title track is a nice mix tape type thing... and the version of Hikky Burr on Golden Horn BB is great in a student band type way.
The 7s are a mixed bunch... Lazy Soul is in rough shape but still a nice grab and I got a mint copy of Freddie McCoys Beans n Greens at the same spot. Managed to snag a copy of the Carol Jones from the web - which makes up for getting stiffed on my previous copy. Does anyone know if it's been bootlegged - the other copy I have has identical label but is the 'string' version... was told the string one had a different label
Soul Crusders is dope - got it for Funky Jive, but actual dig the flip Pretty Lil Mama more. Freddhiie Scott looks like shit but plays real nice
10 euros total for these two:
5 total for this lot:
The Ray Charles and Nat King Cole's are 10"
The Samson 45 is a radio jingle for a Dutch brand rolling tobacco, hilarious.
Jef: call me, i lost your number.
put that sjit off voicemail batch.
It was a trade. Great album though.
