too lazy to go back and find the November Finds thread.

Most of these were from the Buena Park Record Swap




found this at a thrift and figured it might be worth a buck, turns out to the first actual audiophile LP created

    Misty roses is my favorite song from that Colin Blunstone album. Great strings. Good find.

    was away on tour with my band for the last 2 1/2 months. Texas welcomed me back with open arms. it's good to be back...



    Port Authority is sealed



    first clean copy of "There It Is" i've owned



















    some weird mod i don't know to categorize it acetate



    45 acetate version of a song that was never released on 45. apparently it is on an album called Soul Finders or Soul Pretenders?

    excuse me for asking, but is this not the one with chair sitting dude on the cover, gatefold, has a drum break also, recall that pic with the audio cutting machine is actually the back side of the cover.. i might be mistaking (?)

    this record:

    http://www.ebay.com:80/itm/Soul-Finders-LP-Soul-Man-1968-Soul-Expoitation-/230599756795

    track sounds better on acetate than RCA flexi-LP.

    There's a Jet Set 45 on Rojac / Tayster called "The Mojo Man" / "It's Not The End" from 1969. It's the same group as Master Four.

    Title of the song is actually Jet Set.

    The one your referring to is vol. 3 with Lincoln Mayorga. This is the first one. The story is they only pressed 1000 copies of this and issued them to stores with high end stereo equiptment to display what direct-to-disc could sound like. Because it was the first audiophile/ direct LP it instantly became a collectors item.

    different Sheffield Lab LP... likely a different shot of the same lathe.

    Bought a small collection of 80 or so records yesterday. My wife loves Joy Division, The Smiths, and Echo and the Bunnymen so she was super happy about it and wants to file a bunch of them. I guess that is a good thing. Here are a few of them...

    Found these sealed while stopping off at a spot on my way home from dropping off the dry cleaning (Ann Sexton is a double, so if interested, holleur)
