while out picking up some things to spruce up the house. this was my burrito and horchata money, it went to good use. surprised the hell out of me today that these were at one of my spots.
peace to djsheep for posting that pic of him with rasa in his euro thread cause i saw that this morning and was like "yeah i still haven't found that" i love it when schitt like that happens.
also, i probably would have gotten this if i had an extra $2 on me for the label alone...

What's up with 2nd Power?
Random Rap record out of Marietta, Georgia circa 1991 on Wrap Records. It varies in style from track to track. I've never been that great and describing records so I recorded quick mp3 skipping the needle from track to track for you to listen to. This copy looked like it was unplayed so I couldn't pass it up for a dollar.
earlier posts made me jealous that people were finding some good 45s, since theres never any in town and i LOVE the things. today though, i got lucky as my favorite thrift store in town got in about 150 45s for me to look through. i bought 16 of them, most were chances, but these were the best of the lot:
25 cents each
Gene Chandler - from day to day / it's no good for me (constellation) The Sounds Like Us - Clock on the wall / outside chance (Fontana) The Seeds - Try to Understand / Pushin' Too Hard (GNP Crescendo)
and my favorite, which i ALMOST didnt buy for some reason!:
Buddy Lamp - I Wanna Go Home / You've Got the Loving Touch (Wheelsville USA)
Didn't know Spaghetti Head had an Australian press either, but there was a bunch of good funk/soul stuff that got Australian presses but never seem to turn up.

Buddy Lamp - I Wanna Go Home / You've Got the Loving Touch (Wheelsville USA)
anybody else have this? super gritty shit!!
Usually picking up anything on Wheelsville is a good call, that Buddy Lamp is cool, good artist, good tracks, good label, not a 45 that pops up everyday.
^^ the bernard upshaw singers is terribly recorded but i like a couple tracks, gritty gospel. mel dancy is sorta foofy jazz imo but several songs have real nice intros and such. stone country is not country, its definitely stone though. ^^ok so this al green is on London and i think is a repackaging of a Hi record. its dated 1978. Pollen is french prog, i dont like the singers voice much but its quality music. that milt jackson is another sleepy jazz record with some smokin intro parts. ^^ the billie joe at top center reminds me of richie havens but better. a step towards t.callier maybe? ^^ i am excited to find an original chocolate milk s/t, its taken forever. ^^ i have no idea why i bought this crap.
45 time! (as usual i bought pretty blind, just going for stuff i havent seen before, a few needle drops here and there to make sure it wasnt crapola.) ^^these didnt require needle drops of course. ^^ nor did these (all minty, just $5 each!)
I can't speak on all of it, but dude, the Mindbenders? Nothing wrong there! And I have that Ars Nova, not start-to-finish good, but some real strong tracks. AND, that Unspoken Word has a few solid cuts, too.

Washrag is a logical choice, take a look at the credits on that lp! im actually making a beat with one of the songs on that album as we speak....

Brian Brown, ey? Where'd ya score that?
Looks like a CD & Record exchange sticker!
It's weird but I've seen that 45 a few times (bought it the first time) & they have all been white labels, never blue.
People have been killing it with the 45 finds this week, some of my fave listens have been posted, great stuff.

Found an Australian pressing of this 45 that I didn't know about
This is an odd Germn single. The other side is cheesy pop, but this cut is piano-led funkiness
And this rare 4-track EP of early Alan Lee material is pretty sweet - never seen swaggie label 45s before either.
