    First time in Rio and outside of North America in general. I have a lot more to show, but I'll save that for next week.

    That Bonnie Dobson is really good. I remember that someone here (?) made an off comment back in the day saying, "BD is ill!". Then someone who I guess knew her on a personal basis said, "NO! She isn't!!! I saw her yesterday and she looked very healthy!". That was hilarious.
     
    Anyhow, here are my weekend finds...

    Swap meet finds. Fredera is the only LP from the Som Imaginário guitarist who played with the best of the best in MPB. Astrud is in unplayed condition. Egberto Gismonti is the LP he released after the excellent "Corações Futuristas" but before he signed with ECM, starting with "Dança Das Cabeças". Rare Bird is their debut. I owned a Uriah Heep record before. This is their second one.

    Hopefully this won't be the last finds post I'll make here as I'll make an effort to do some record shopping while in Salvador, Bahia in two weeks, which coincides with SS going offline soon after.

    Some Salvador finds. Debut from Ednardo. I thought his name was familiar and I just remembered that I have his and the Pessoal Do Ceará's follow up ("Meu Corpo..."). Never can go wrong with Egberto or Gal. I thought finding the Giorgio here of all places was surprising.

  • Collection strut 2024

    ElectrodeElectrode
    My place is the same size also with a collection of around 1500. I only keep the best of the best: soul staples, underrated gems, jazz and rock from around the world which slingshots you into oblivion to the raers which all have a story behind how I obtained them by chance.

    I put off going through everything to figure out what mildly interesting records deserve to be traded for what little credit a record store concerned about making a profit in 2024 will give me. Even if some of them wind up going to the thrift store, at least they will still be circulated.

    I have a smaller CD and DVD collection. Last year I donated a large cardboard box of VHS tapes of dubbed, pan-and-scan versions of European cop films for the American rental market. I no longer need them as they have already been rereleased as originally intended in high def. 

    Keeping all the autographs.

    I'll say! That Webs is a favorite of mine. It was used in a Killer Mike track last year.
