while i haven't posted here in a while i thought this experience to be a worthy one to share. i was at a local Savers (like a Goodwill) and combing the vinyl racks when all of a sudden my heart skipped a beat when i came across what i thought was an uber grail raer until i looked a little closer to find out is was just

Apparently that shot is generic stock


anyways i know there are a one or two other instances where a sought after grail has the generic cover ...i am spacing on the disco one. anyways i did score two port authority records that were worth the dig.


two highlight cuts from each album

    I wanna say I've seen this on some Southern Beach Music foolishness, but not 100%, maybe someone can back me up or deny:

    There are a couple of college choir records on Century Custom with that exact stock cover as well. With the exception of a couple, I didn't know about the others that share that cover before joining Soul Strut.

    There's Bachs, don't smoke, lousy black comedian, and possibly a classical record with this cover.

    it was the Gloria Ann Taylor and McNeal & Niles...thanks Horseleech!

    I had an old custom records order form once. It had all the stock covers you could choose from.

    Some Savoy gospel lps have stock covers too.

    I've never seen that Out Of The Bachs cover.

    There's a halfway decent garagey LP by the Philly group The Kit-Kats w/that cover as well.

    I've probably seen at least 10-12 different LP's....mostly Pop/Lounge, with that cover

    Oh yeah....There's also a Walter Scott, lead singer of Bob Kuban & The In-Men of "The Cheater" fame, solo LP.

    another one that always make me do a double check when I see it

    ive got a female singer with that cover, forget the name, but needle dropping made me buy it, not the cover - good n odd sounding folk, at least some of the tracks. iirc.

    There's some generic EZ Listening LP with the same cover as Ricardo Marrero on TSG that still gets me every time.

    Not a "sought after grail" by any means....but every once in a while when i see the back cover of this dollar-bin filler turd:



    which looks like this




    I think it might actually be THIS






    and it never is. :(
