  • had another big dip into the collection of an apparently deceased dj/promoter preson who was active late 70s into the 80s. most of this stuff is from that, but some key pieces are from a nice visit to Good Records (incl chubby checker, the JA lps, …

  • super cool! so wait, forgive my addled brain, but did they ever release that 3rd Kapp record that was left up in the attic? i know theres been some silver apples rereleases etc but i cant remember if this ever came out?
