Dollars and sense aside, right now I'd want this coming out my home stereo more than anything: but yeah, as usual I just skip straight to posting what I want to say without reading anyone else's contributions. Anything else going …

Yeah UK dudes only use two grades; anything not store stock mint is automatically a VG+ to them, no matter what it looks like.

This reminds me of this outsider artist Morton Bartlett I just saw work by. He made these creepy dolls of children and would take really intimate photographs of them in different poses (some decidedly NSFW). Nobody knew about his obsession until h…

Speaking of shitty commercials that make you angry, anyone remember this:

There's a killer spot a few minutes from my house that specializes in vegan and vegetarian tamales. I need to remember tidbits like this when I'm feeling depressed about life.

Lots of heavy hitters have been after this for a long time. Doubtful I'll ever have one but i CAN tell my grandkids I held the high bid for 3 days or so. SOFT HEAT

:face_melt: i want one

"it's not his only one" are you saying you weren't aware if Harvey Scales before? Just find it curious that some folks can be up on 4 digit records, the deep and rare and not be aware of an artist that wrote a multi-million seller (disco lady), h…

1. Eels troll on soulstrut 2. raj pays for the extra bandwidth 3. price of the classifieds inches higher and higher

maocontent said: just did Ellipsis numbers. Damn near Scorpio & His People numbers. Which means, all things aside, it must be just shy of "mediocre" quality wise.

I was hoping Mr. Scales would perform this at that Brooklyn Soul Fest last month but no such luck...

Really? Never turns up in MKE. Lots of dudes all over the globe were feinding for it and this was the first on ebay in a real long time.. complete monster of a funk tune. I'm bummed because I'm fairly certain that this dude picked this…

I think someone could argue there are better SPINS than Scorpio. If I look out on a crowd and see a sea of Beckies I'd be more apt to play something like Wanda Davis Save Me (an amazing side, to be sure). The Danny's crowd, at least the couple of …

The Scorpio 45 isn't just a rare or killer funk spin, its a bonafide work of art. At least thats how my brain files it. Aside from just the rhythm and melody that make up the tune, there is so much else being drawn out in a truely unquantifiable w…

Dear Mr. Fryer, Dundun dun dun dundun dun, DUN DUN DUN + "I ask you to give me another chance, but you laugh in my face." :balla: signed, Heard It IRL

BigK said:Arbys is a good when you want a change from the other fast food menus think outside the burger losers

I never thought of ARBYS as any better or worse than the other fast food monoliths. I don't really eat that stuff though. There is a good Neil Hamburger joke about arby's you can tell your friends. It goes ???Why does Arby???s put so much mayonn…

also record dealers: polish up your nice soul 45s

Yeah, I'm checking that out on Saturday. Seeing my hometown boy Harvey Scales .

When I hear STAX I hear raw, bluesy singers over warm bass and horns. When I hear Motown I hear different kinds of singers (smooth like Smokey, Diana, Marvin; rougher like Martha or David Ruffin), over sharp snares, piano, and handclaps. There's …
-
Fidelity wise, I think 60s motown is raw as hell. That stuff sounds almost like garage rock. STAX is like a plush sofa in comparison.
-
Yeah, those guys really knew what would still sound good in 2010. There's a female version of "think back" that pretty much slays everything else. Super lo-fi though...

You have to be pretty crass to deny this: Who cares if they were pop or not?

This week: Volcanos "Laws of Love", One of my two "gateway" northern records. Has had a nice revival at my house over the last few days Lou Courtney "If the Shoe Fits", Great stomper. I never spun this out because it has kind…
