"War Ina Babylon" gets a lot of rotation. KPFK's Reggae Central is having a tribute to him right now. Show will be archived in a few days. https://archive.kpfk.org/index.mob.php?shokey=reggaecent I saw him at Dub Club a few times a few years ag…

These albums helped with the yearly 4 hours there/4 hours back drive to Morro Bay this weekend.

"McClay"? I noticed a dot above the cursive letters: "Vai..."? "Voi..."? I tried the BMI and ASCAP searchable databases and came up empty, but I didn't spend too much time on it.

Those two original Ambiances for $5 really caught me by surprise. Despite being from L.A., the only one of theirs I have found was a warped, almost unplayable copy of "Drift Up To Space" at a thrift store twenty years ago. They were found under thei…

I have a 45 of Los Joao's version somewhere. I remember it being at the least a decent cover.

That was thoroughly entertaining. It had me laughing so hard when he started going off on Santa, Jehovah's Witnesses and Will Smith. "How the fuck y'all make that holy water?!? / Gimme some of that so I can cook a quarter"

$3 finds from this past week with the exception of the Ornette Colemans which were $20 each.

I found that one earlier this year for ~$12 and coincidentally saw it at Amoeba L.A. on Wednesday for more than twice that, so $7 is a good deal. I noticed that the typeface on Creque's previous LP was used for the cover of PUTS' "OST". Wish I w…

He paved the way. But I'm disappointed at the news parroting the same "'Just A Friend' guy!" headlines.

Oh, yeah, it was loud. Here is the show I was referring to: "Talk To The People" is a much needed upgrade from a VG- copy I already have. It's a part of his "Invitation To Openness" and "Layers" period where he goes all out with the Rhodes and cl…

Nice. I saw Ty Segall & The Freedom Band play at the nearby Zebulon two years ago. Check out his live-streamed solo set there from last year. Both are on YouTube. I didn't do so well on a night fishing trip last Saturday, but I found these at a…

Osmosis is psych rock from Boston, fronted by Charlie Mariano. Robin Kenyatta is solid jazz fusion with Wolfgang Dauner on the clavinet. Melinda soundtrack is a minty DJ promo copy.

Some of you may remember this one. While its goofiness is intentional, it's still obnoxious.

I've never had luck at Caterbury but I had some at GG. I miss the PCC swap meet.

My grandmother was a ticket usher at the Covina theater back in the day (http://cinematreasures.org/theaters/13983). Earl is one of the best.

This was filmed at Poobah Records in Pasadena. I'll ask them next time I visit.

I don't know about it being one of the best 50 jazz albums of all time, but it's of the avant-garde, creeping insanity variety (similar to the Mark Nauseef and Art Ensemble Of Chicago's "Paris Sessions"), a sound which I have been taking a liking to…

Here's what I found this past week.

The 6/8 drums on "Jelly Jam" on the McDuff are nasty. I had no idea that it was a cover of an early Hello People tune. I also like "Le Miroir Noir" on the David Baker. $3 for that Mystic Moods sounds about right and worth it. That's an Art Blakey I …

I only recently found out that Walter Carlos became Wendy Carlos, Roberto and Erasmo Carlos are not related, George Shearing and Eric Kloss was/is blind, China Lake in California is no longer a lake and lamb "fries" are actually testicles. There we…
