Was going through some crates at the local fleamarket which looked something like this:James LastJames LastPolka LPSchlager LPJames LastThe Heliocentric Worlds of Sun RaJames LastWTF? Every other record in about 5 crates was nothing but schlager and easy listening... Did some jazz dude go around and randomly insert shit in other people's crates? Was there a James Last / Sun ra crossover crowd I never heard about?Anyone else experienced something similar?

for eral though, what james last records???
just kidding.
sun ra, dope
ive never come across even a beat up sun ra record here in philly
Yesterday, at every place I went (8) I found ONE record mixed with a bunch of shit that didn't come close to matching.
Examples:
Rick Stanley - Song Of Life (still sealed and mixed in with a ton of Barbara Streisand and classical)
"Poncho" Perez - Green & Yellow (1 f*cking Brazillian record mixed with a bunch Andy Williams / Mantovani type shit)
It never ends
what i want to know is why al hirts soul in the horn is never lumped in with all his other crappy lps.
wait, isn't this why it's called "digging"?
Dude! I swear this happened to me about a year ago! Babs complete discography then bam! Lou courtney in between! That's too funny... Sorry to say I found 2 Copys of soul in the horn while looking through al hirts a while back-my 3rd and 4th copys! That record likes me I guess.
which could be reason why you find the most random soul LP amongst easy listening fodder.
You're absolutely correct.
But these things just don't happen at Goodwill. For example, last week I went to this tiny little local charity shop and mixed in with Chicago LP's is this Eric Dolphy French only 'Many Faces Of Jazz' record.
Well, yeah -- I mean sometimes the pay off is ridiculous, but for the most part it's pretty

Not as rare as people think it is? Rick @ Grooveyard just had a copy, another on ebay and now you?
BUY IT. STORE IT.
Rey, that Freddie Rodriguez is sick as hell. Nice
pullpurchase!its pretty rare. ive been diggin since 92 and this the second copy ive gotten. rick also has a store who specializes in jazz so im sure hed see a copy from time to time.
ive seen your finds i dont think youre not finding good stuff. yorue also in the east bay and have a lot of competition. maybe you just need to step your game up and knock jesse and charlie off their gold and silver platforms.
wall item tomorrow at kusf!
YES PLAESE
Also sealed cutout quantity on your girl Lena Zavaroni's Stax-released face-melter Ma! He's Making Eyes at Me! (hate me now).
I attempted to interest alleged master-digger aleit in the latter, but he has thus far ignored me to his own detriment.
I guess everybody can't be up on everything at all times.
can i get a price czech on the joe panama lp?
b/w what happened to the trade patna?

Daniel... Man up and hit me on the PMs if you want to deal some copies of the Lena.
This is bordering on Mylatenteepee level enthusiasm. Check yo self big dude.
If you see this one take it home with you
$40-$50
Okay, all you little dudes can give your typing fingers a rest. Just stop it with the texts and PMs.
I'm going to boss up and deal this one myself.
And as far as tracking it--I don't even want to hear about any of you dudes sniffing around lenazavaronistrut. I have locked down all known copies.
Just relax and take notes on how the record game is played.
Fall back and recognize the momentousness
ORGAZMIC AND SLIGHTLY HOMO-EROTIC TO SAY THE LEAST.

Holler at me if you want to make some money off that other LP...
Without a doubt.
Coincidentally, I've been listening to this one all week:
Highly recommended. Totally unique sound. Arsenio plays tres and has two saxophone players on it.
