  • 2 of these walked into lotusland about 3-4 years back. broke our 1 G cherry on those. i think thats his most shit 45 i've ever heard as well. a/
  • The same dude that wrote HOMOCIDE also wrote the wire, he also wrote the corner miniseries on hbo. But even he will tell you that the wire is his fully realized vision. They also did OZ, well some of them.. There were so many talents involved…
  • Fuck the Wire, HOMOCIDE. No cop show in the last 25 years has had such a profound and lasting influence IMO. Andre Braugher has gotta be one of the most underappreciated actors of our era, and the lo-fi camera work was totally ahead ..and surprisin…
  • Good to see everyone again, TX constituants are always the epitome of graciousness. Ironfeet, thnx for the 2 nice mixes. Love the sunshine pop stuff.. I guess it'll be a year before we do it again as they dont have a spot for the spring, right?? …
  • There's 2 versions, Little Beaver's being the original. I think the only criticism i can really offer on Gerald's latest is that they didnt use that one instead. The Sam is nice, but they could've just put on both. a.
  • *Monterey's - Get Down (NGC) meat and potato's florida funk. i guess jazzman's doing a re of this soon. *Continental Express Band - Struggling to the Top / Lady on my Mind (MOONRAKER) d.c. late funk, fucking awesome and almost totally unknown it se…
  • Comet, Cyclone, and Hurricane as well right?? sort of a rollercoaster trilogy. Cyclone was the one Mr Bungle sampled I think. Side note, its really easy to get free credits on 8ts/9ts williams games by putting a shoe or some kind of padding in betw…
  • Yeah definitely. Weird though the p.b. salesman I talked to was saying ~$50/mo plus postage. What are the other "fees"? dude, i should just scan in one of my bills. its fucking silly. its like if you add $50 postage to your machine you get charge…
  • No, you can do it all w/ Pitney. They will just tax your ass for the privilige. And you won't have delivery confirm which is free w/ the USPS site. The really sad thing, and the reason Im bringing this to the board, is that if USPS's site would jus…
  • There's tons of record digger music in this film as well. surprised no ones mentioned that yet. KPM, Mutantes, some freaky spanish/mexican/SA type shit I didnt know but was pretty dope.. As for the film.. some good, some bad, but if you cant laugh …
  • Not normally a big jazz funk guy but I would have to say BOBBI HUMPHREYS harlem river drive is thee most sublime summer p.m. jam.
  • http://wfmu.org/playlists/SV/0605 latest mr finewine shows, there's hundreds up there. essential for fans of 6ts soul across the board (funk, northern, deep, etc..)
  • The summerfest 45 is so goddamn awful. I wish people would stop talking about it like it was anything except for the shitball with a break 45 that it is. Do people even sample drums anymore?
  • with you on that Younghearts, K. possibly the only track in the world that will successfully transition a weird gear set into sweet soul.
  • Terry Callier "Gotta Get Closer To You" on CADET hiding it like a porno under the bed cause my girlfriends so sick of it!
  • DUHHHH i replied to an earlier post without reading the rest of this!! How many known copies of TKO's aussie/NZ press??
  • Anyone know anything about the kiwi Dr. Tree 'Eugino D' 45? It was supposedly a radio promo, my guess is it would be on emi like the lp. I've never met anyone who had a copy. I'd give my left nut for a copy of the tko's single, must be pretty rare …
  • I got a little somthin on the Dennis Bovell KPM(s)
  • i just found hiphoptony d's LP sealed. whats that worth? i thought it was a boner..
  • learning what major/mid sized label things are ACTUALLY rare is the hard part. you gotta watch what turns up for a few years at least, see what things are in every promo haul you hit and which things arent... Just curious - you mind naming a title…
  • we do great with rap, but we maintain our aesthetic from the funk game. indy labels with high quality music is almost always gonna do good for you.. once in awhile one of the 'enterpreneurs' in the 80s/90s sold too much weed, got too cocky and pres…
  • I think a lot of kids are just mad that the mass-maufactured, albeit good, records they bought in their teens are now worth less than what they paid for them. This games not that hard to figure out, rare promo only singles with killer mixes not av…
  • 'Everybody Disco' is real nice too, never see that pop up.
  • johnny, visual rocka = andy, lotusland = tom
  • Carl Temple - Soul Day Theme (brighter world) 45 Soul Crusaders - Soul Cruise (dialee) 45 Ronnie McNeir - wendy is gone (prodigal) 45 sugary addictive modern soul pop,bad Black Uhuru - 'bad girl' aka 'sorry for the man' 12" tied w/ mr temple for m…
  • I prefer the term 'urban whites'.
  • The reissue LPs of this and the Tony Aiken + Future 2000 are both done so astonishingly well, with thick glossy covers, that many people have been fooled. Does anybody know who did these re's?? They are, cover wise at least, heads and shoulders ab…
  • cant believe a curtis green came out of there. how close is that to lake charles? our branches buy solely based off of condition, so this excludes most good inner city soul 45 batches.. NEVER find good 45s at the ones here in general. feel free …
  • We all tried to get part time jobs there before AKA part time raping of the back rooms, but those clever bastards have a policy that you have to have at least a Bachelors'(counted all of us out!) and NO part time! so you gotta be serious. Luckily …
  • My 3rd guitar was not styrene, dont know what thats all about. Was there 2 (or more) pressings?? Add:: Ray Frazier - Gonna Get Your Love (chess) Ramsey and Co - Love Call (ramco) doh Jean Knight - Do Me
