  • breezing through here, did anyone mention "Money Jungle" w/ Duke Ellington, Roach, and Mingus? the title track alone has always been i think it's the Mingus basslines that really deliver the dark edge on this one...
  • Are you sure J*ff? I thought Nate was saying that it was going to be on the 3rd Tuesday which would make it the 22nd of August? whoop - sorry, tho we're both wrong. check that calender B - 3rd Tuesday of August will be the 15th.
  • i think someone from the gallery was taking pics, so they'll be here at some point: http://galleryad.com/ everyone's set was dope, and the shopping was excellent (sold a bunch AND picked up some nice stuff... how's that Mose Allison treating ya ju…
  • if the crowd ain't feelin it then hmmm... half empty floor? save it. a DJ thats rockin out him/herself without all (or most) of the party is definitely
  • parliament - give up the funk (tear the roof off) heard it in Moby Disc on Topanga (hammer-time...!!???) miles davis - live evil maybe it was the first track(?), the one i think 3rd bass sampled on the cactus album... luved it. Sly Stone - Fres…
  • it's decent, at least as a rest from the "not another teen movie garbage"... that said, the director was the same guy that did "Napoleon D", so add Jack Black into the mix and some good character actors and yup - plus a good "Tenacious D" moment as …
  • Can I still wear my Slayer 'reign in blood' t-shirt and try and trade my Iron Maiden 'number of the beast' LP ? NO. irony is so fuckin over dude. However, you CAN wear it as long as you get drunk and start going over your "glory days" on cable. or s…
  • god, i can hear them all now... B, which eastside dive you referring to - THATS 408 ARMY TERRITORY, SON!!!!! btw - i assume the foreigner cover was for URGENT; all time drunken-belch-along-sat.nite.live.saxophone-masterpiece
  • damn - i'm late to the party and my long-ass post just timed out... Ivan, fuck that place. Bad gigs happen. B - my Metro ho's will **oofff*** get you for that little jab... oh, and one more item - since when does "the local black presence" someh…
  • yawn... the B&S hate is weak. it is what it is... and emo/indie "hipster" chicks luv that shit - oh yeah, they're all bad imitations of Nico so uh, fuck them! btw - "your cover's blown" is an indie/boogie bombshell.
  • thanks for bumpin' this up fellers - should be a fun nite. as Mr. b just mentioned, Todd from Metro will be spinning, along with Aaron Cho (local 45/northern soul kid), and one more local collector playing the indie-ala-Stereolab joints...
  • dudes prolly know this but "High On You" has "Crossword Puzzle" - great track + major de la "say no..." sample. the consistency def. goes down after this album imo, but i like all of side one...
  • oh you beeeyatch...! you've given the faces away with the names (all beautiful i might add), AND linked me to my mall ho's... whats next B, shoe scratchin'?????
  • how often do you guys do this? so far this is the second one, and we're looking at once a month... hey KID, have you talked to Nate? I've been directing everyone to give him a call if they are looking for table space - lemme know if you need his d…
  • True, but this statement does not at all apply to my dude Goldenchyld. I was beyond shocked to see him on that schitt, but he deserves all the exposure he can get. Very dope and a genuine, humble guy. (i may be a li'l dude on the SS but...) i abs…
  • Question. Is it just me, or does it seem like things in that moment of time, in that particular area, was way more open to things (music, clothes, culture, etc)? Compared to even now? 20 something odd years later... totally. it was 80s NYC - i mean…
  • ..and to close out the thread (or maybe keep it going???), 2006 hiphop/rap is the day's punkrock. meaning look at hiphop/rap dudes living in the now (creating new "fashions", scary ass gold teeth!) and todays "punk rockers" - 12 year-olds that wear …
  • who is the MC????? sounds like Divine meets Rip Taylor...
  • people cannot front on this dude...! how many albums did he have, and that were good all the way through? personally, i'm into the mellow mellow... and his cover of "slippin' into darkness" (forget the album name) is very nice.
  • you're in - check the PM
  • no worries A... btw, thank you everyone again for keeping this post page 1 status!!! and here's a little image bump:
  • glad to see some feedback already... thanks everyone so far for the help, tips, info, etc's... b - tacos & beers will be perfect before hand - i gotta get ruffnready to ask t.i. why the constant 'thizz barrage???
  • the 2nd(??) Nightlife Unlimited LP w/ "Peaches & Prunes" ("If I Gave You More" is the jam...) the Change LP w/ "Lovers Holiday" (tho heard theres a Levan 12" mix of this!!!)
  • did anyone cover "yeah YEAH!!!" ? y'know with the upward inflection on the second YEAH, all umm, li'l jon style? almost like it's a question??? Bside: "come correct"

  • this thread rules, and my 5 cents: play that funky music - fuckin hate it hate it hate it. needles in my ears hate it. epitome of bad wedding and bar mitzvah 'muzak'. and why does 98.1 still play it???? that six-flags techno song (y'know, the scar…
  • haddaway-what is love, for some serious "oh no he didn't" looks dissolving into dance floor chaos. is this spanglish for 'holloway', like loleatta? regardless, if you've got the boogie/disco thing going on, drop 'love sensation' (shep pettibone …
  • I would imagine that the gentleman showed up at a later hour you are correct sir, as a swap novice, 12 apparently is: and couldn't find sufficient rare records for dirt cheap. dirt cheap? well, more like gravel-ish... but yeah, i was expectin…
