VOEH is on hold for now, but the Moments record is also a double - up for grabs. Minty copy of that Zingara, that one is up for trade, too. I you need 'em, whisper at me.

Did find some LP's in great shape including:
Mother Night - S/T (Columbia)
Bobby Hutcherson - Now (Blue Note)
Toudie Heath - Kawaida (Obe)
General Johnson - Generally Speaking (Invictus)
Don Covay and the Goodtimers - Mercy! (Atlantic)
Electric Prunes - Release of an Oath (Reprise)
Joel Vance - What I Did on My Vacation (Cadet Concept)
Jon Lucien - Mind's Eye (RCA)
and finally a long time white whale spearded NM for $5:
congrats Neal!! that's a good look.
but went digging again. dollar bin pick ups, didn't get much because i was rather conservative on the condition of some of the records.
gary burton - the new quartet (ecm, 1973)
coke escovedo - comin at ya (great condition, surprising since most other stuff was smashed)
the mastersounds - fate/gesticulate 45 (world pacific, ???)
synergy - electronic concepts for rock orchestra (what can i say, i love synth-cheese)
some other stuff.
Surprised to find two amazing Ester Marrow live tracks on that MLK tribute rec (Gr??nsl??s Kv??ll). I've passed up on this several times before, stupid me. And I finally got my hands on the discomental paranoiajazz of Vanessa
post vacation finds are alright with me
Counts bangs! Thanking my dude Manduro!
It's not hoaky at all like I was expecting.
Sound is put together well on it and has a very believable, mellow end result. It's got a folkish, dare I say 'soft-psychish' thing going on. I could see some folks that collect this genre trippin out on it. Sounds better the longer I listen to it.
This one was minty! Whassup with the Dr. John/Jesse Hill/etc connection on this album:
also:
Africa - Music from Lil' Brown - Ode
Underground Sunshine - Let There Be Light - Intrepid
Irakere - II - Columbia [/b](this shit rules!)
Eddie Floyd - Down to Earth - Stax [/b](sealed)
King Curtis - King Size Soul - Atco
Carla Thomas - Memphis Queen - Stax
Ike & Tina Turner - Ike & Tina Show Volume 2 - Loma
Willie Bobo - Feelin' So Good - Verve
Four Tops - Meeting of the Minds - ABC [/b](never really see this one, and it's nice)
Elvin Jones - Time Capsule - Vanguard
Messengers - S/T - Rare Earth
Doug E. Fresh - Nuthin/All the Way to Heaven 12" - Reality
[/b]
Also, from a local spot earlier in the day,
I got an amazing OG in the shrinkwrap of
James Brown - The Payback - Polydor
[/b]and this record, which was actually the cheapest of the day
(except for the DEF 12"), but may very well be the best:
It's weird...it has all these New Orleans heads playing on it, Dr. John, Jesse Hill, all tracks arranged by Harold Battiste, but it's definitely more of a Phil Spectorish girl group sound than anything...lots of covers like "What'd I Say" & "Mockingbird," etc...the "Ooo Pah Poo Doo" cover rules...Morrocco Mole tells me the other LP by them ("slice of CAKE") is more raw folksy/funky, but this one is a pretty cool little record...I just want to know the story of why they were working with all those ill NOLA dudes...
This is hot. Downtempo disco/modern soul steez
Pretty cool remix with a million different breakdowns.
This is perfection until that sax comes in...
Another quality modern soul jam. Feelin' Moby Dick right now.
Turned out to be much better than I expected. I'm gonna bump this in the club tonight (yeah right)
I was on the fence with this one until that piano lick kicked in. Classy disco joint.
i copped this a couple of weeks ago. feelin it. mines on yellow clear wax though.
Saying, big shout to Delay's friend John for hooking this one up during my NYC trip. Many nice LPs I coppethed from him. Jan and Lorraine for dayz, YES PLAESE.

The Feminine Complex is one of my favorites. I found this Cake record too last weekend. I skipped through all the Phil Spector-like stuff and was happy to hear the three cute tracks on the end of side-B with the string quartet sound. As these records are being discussed: I found The Poppy Family - which way you going billy. What a record...
sunny and the sunliners: the thing / give me time (key-loc 1007)
sunny and the sunliners: banana juice / norma de la guadaljara (key-loc 1025)
two real nice instrumental funk joints... one really pretty ballad with an awesome horn arrangement...
just got these today... thanks.
That is a really nice record. One of those "I need to burn this to CD" type records.
