  • Okay, I can report back that this is nothing short of a miracle. Did using the ultrasonic cleaner leave any residue or hazing affect to the vinyl?
  • well i understand that much, but is the original the straight Polydor release, or the Track Record release, which was put out by Polydor anyway? Track pressing came first and sells for the most...though all later UK (and other Euro) pressings had t…
  • Name of shop/store/web site: Zero Street Location: Omaha Web site: None for the shop Years in business: 1 yr so far in Omaha (I had a shop in Lincoln for five yrs) Partners or solo: Solo Other sources of income?: None Job(s) before opening st…
  • ..."Yeah it may be before my time muhfugger, but I bet I know a hell of lot more about YOUR era of music than you do!!!!" I wish I had a dollar for every dude who says this to me then asks about a fuckin' Moody Blues record or some shit...drives me…
  • "The vinyl is VG++ but needs some cleaning"
  • Yes, same guy...hard to read/overwritten descriptions but seems to pay off. I figured he was pretty well known.
  • Only 1 neg out of about 500 transactions, left in retaliation for a negative I left a poor seller... eBay should have some system in place to prevent this from happening. It would probably be an ardous task but it really is unfair for one party to …
  • Stereolab's "Peng" LP (UK)
  • About two weeks of finds here: Starlets on Chess (great northern tune), Raves on Smash (eastern pop psych/garage...great!), Rosebuds on Tower (rare soul tune...wrecked copy but plays nice), Paul Kelly on Philips (another nic…
  • FYI...dry elmers glue will dissolve in water...so if you leave residue, it should clean up pretty easy with warm water. Back in my trading days, I used to put a coat of elmers glue over the stamps on my packages (then have my trade partner send them…
  • Week(end) finds: Late 70's UK press Nick Drake instant collection. Three privates are kinda turd...Free Design xmas raer! Royal Court is a local "modern soul" ep I've never seen before...gospel lps all have some nice tracks...Allee is …
  • This thread is just so fucking silly it makes me SICK. Fucking for fuck's sake. Damn, dudes. When it rains, it pours. Had a hot week myself: All from the same dude...all NM/NM or very close (Albert and Stone Country are sealed). Bottom…
  • I can't find a pictue of it, but anybody remember the "Cobra" machine based on the Sylvester Stallone movie of the same name? From circa 1996. I remember loving this one back in my college days... Oops...I meant 1986...

  • Nice finds guys...what's up with that Chris, Chris & Leo?
  • Can we change the theme of this thread to most common LOCAL record you see? For me it's this local legend:
  • Soft Machine is signed by Kevin Ayers fresh county apples on the B side is nice. That's shekina glory #3 of the summer. jimmy mack on palmer i want to shop where you shop tee hee hee...well, most were from house calls or brought i…
  • Soft Machine is signed by Kevin Ayers Cool! I been thinking about starting a thread about "records you found that were signed". Yeah, I also got a signed copy of "Odd Ditties" from the same guy and a Fairport Convention LP signed by Thompson and P…
  • I haven't played in a while. Some highlights from the last week: Anybody checked out the Linda Waterfall LP? I almost passed on it because it's on Windam Hill. Really beautiful folk album... Soft Machine is signed by Kevin Ayers
  • Seals & Croft Linda Rhonstadt Steve Martin "A Wild and Crazy Guy" (a local record store donated about 50 copies of this to one thrift store about two years ago and I think they still have them all in the bins)
  • The competitor who gave the most correct answers won, and was then treated to a $1000 dollar spending spree at a comic convention. They then had I believe 5 minutes to spend the entire amount. This is a typo, right?! I have enough trouble spending…
  • Was it worth the wait? Hmmm...I dunno. Definitely has a decent groove but some songs are straight-up ruined by a lame "Ides of March" horns section. While a couple tracks are helped by some soulful drumming, the horns are pure lounge cheese. Why??? …
  • THEE local record I've only heard of and have wanted for over ten years popped up in a shop yesterday for less than $4: Was it worth the wait? Hmmm...I dunno. Definitely has a decent groove but some songs are straight-up ruined by a lame "…
  • I'm can't believe the amount of bad music being played in record stores. I guess you get bored with good music after awhile. uhhh, co-sign. Last time I went out to a record store, they played the entire "Guilty" album by Barbara Striesand and Bar…
  • Last week a man came in with his teenage daughter and a stack of 120 classic rock albums. Everytime I would pull something from the pile, the daugter would whisper something into her dad's ear. Pst...pst...pst... After checking the conditions of the…
  • I've had pretty good karma with bidders on Ebay, but here's one I got recently: I have no idea what happened with this auction. I am having trouble with my computer and the next thing I knew I was the high bidder at $62.00 when I never intended to…
  • Surprisingly good Funk from Skidmore, Missouri.. I've had another record by this group (from about the same era) that is straight country hee-haw doo-doo Damn...I wish I knew how to download a clip...."I've Got A Bag Of My Own" is a JB cover, "W…

  • I was on a hardcroe buzz this week it seems, replaced some worn out cassettes. Also now the entire Judge discog is on two nice pieces of colored vinyl, sweet. I saw Judge back in '90...they were alright but the real band that night was the open…
