Danno & I turned an exhibition of this turntable into a fiasco. We brought them a trashed Latin raer to demo. What an awful tt for 10,000. And you can't play clear vinyl on em. believe that....but hey, Keith Jarrett LOVES it.
-
rumor has it that these things require a BEYOND Mint copy of a record, or the digital bleeps and farts just get OUT OF CONTROL. Some really bad digi noise......
-
oh man...I nearly died at OLD MAN BITES TENDERLY...Damn..
-
one thing does need be said....the king of digging is friendly....which is more than can be said of many record buying people. Pretty well everybody was easy to deal with at this show.......
-
Another odd thing I noticed at the show was the intensity with which people scrutinised the condition of my $3 jazz records. They were there bucks a pop! Come on! I got the sense that if I had been charging $10, no one would have cared so much abo…

If I'm not wrong this is the second time he tries to sell those records, and it seems that he didn't learn from the first time. crazy enough....i think this is the 3rd or 4th time this seller has tried these items. They have been on and off for mo…
-
But trust me dude, whether it's getting laughed at, getting booed, having five people show up, having the club owner cut your set, or whatever it is... we've ALL been there. Trust me on that. such truth....Ferrari, and even though i don't know yo…

It was a casually scheduled meeting - I'm taking them to brunch later today. Dino and Chuck Boom were saying there wasn't much reggae there. I guess Harper not bringing any records and just coming to by changed things. Glad you did well. How …

Got a call for a collection for someone moving back to Jamaica on Sunday, couldn't pass it up adn was zonked by the time I hauled it home at 12:00. Glad it was fun. Did the film crew show up? I heard my sisters were there (I'd forgotten I told th…

Dope record show today...... A few strut heads were there and a few were awol. Lots of good records to be had at reasonable prices, and I cleared out a few crates. Fun for all.............
-
A few weekday + this morning finds. A good day for these parts. I have been playing Sparky the Piano for people all day and that's probably the one I can't get enough of. If someone could tell me what old schol hh song says at the end "Your time …
-
As someone who doesn't watch TV, i caught an early episode of this show and got emotional as hell when the cat brought in his educational game. Dude crying brought it out in me. VERY emotional. Glad to see he is in the final 4, but unfortunately I'm…
-
I'm guessing L.I.E Posse also. Since both The rhymer jay bee & Rasta Lou are credited on the rough material 12" That's the clincher...Thanks B...much appreciated.... Also....Rasta Lou may be the best name in hip-hop history for a white dude..
-
Anyone else with an idea??? this is really getting to me....
-
I've seen those dudes on a record before, but I can't remember for the life of me what they were called. I swear I've seen it though.... I KNOW......this shit is Killing me. It could be L.I.E Posse. Thanks for that Hsulu.....but I'm not totally c…
-
no idea why the pics are coming through so extra huge..... tinypic is sabotaging my shit...Anyway...any guesses??
-
This Lp used to litter the dollar bins here Rich. The reason.....? It was a compulsory purchase for all Canadians between the ages of 12-15 in the 70's, as dictated by then Prime Minister Trudeau....
-
i saw Roy last year or so, with his MalletKat (aka phony vibes) but he killed it regardless, hands down. that is good to hear....i had only heard VERY rough reports on the set he was using. And catalist, you are right, the lineup is killin it regar…
-
my main concern is Roy with his phony vibes that he has been playing the last few years (electric synth style). Will he make it a decidedly "smooth" jazz affair? I hope not as this show looks beautiful.
-
Also, I've not been to Mexico for around 10 years. Previously we I went places like Playa Del carmen were quiet, beautiful places. Does anyone know what they are like now? Are they over run? Thanks Playa and the surrounding areas are now SHOT due t…
-
lads...is this the same Steve Parks as "Moving In The Right Direction"??
-
Can't say i was ever really a big fan, but not hating for sure. Cee_lo as a solo artist? That is some vvvvvvery good musics. I absolutely love the 2nd solo Lp.
-
i've always wanted to check this show out....usually any good? when's the next??
-
Nice travelogue, Sheep! You are the Ansel Adams of fried and soon to be fried food. Best one liner EVER!!!
-
man...thanks so much for posting these. I would have eaten all o dem foodstuffs from those market vendors. Looks like you had good times. Hotel room completely off the chain.
-
one more thing: if there is a cute girl with minimal record knowledge working the counter your sales will be double that of your competitors. The truth in this is staggering....
-
thanks for all the good advice.(no pun intended ) and everyone else. i'm well aware of the differences of NYC/SF/LA and a town like austin for a store. the internet would have to be my friend for records i would expect to get $50 or more for. he…
-
all true Jonny.... NYC makes the difference me thinks. 3/4 of all the product we all look for comes from that area initially, so it walking through the door is much more of a reality than in other places. Again NYC is the home of the big spender, …
-
The biggest obvious advantage of having a store front is that records will walk in the front door. I've thought about this over the years and the idea I came up with would probably not work in Dallas but might very well be right for Austin. I know…
-
I'd have to say don't so it.... 1. Austin has just seen the opening of a new store (Backspin). Wether it is good or not i don't know, but they are a niche store, so you would already have competition. 2. This is not the age of the record store. O…
