  • Fantastic box set. I love the extras. My copy of Unfinished Business from this box set was pressed wrong. I emailed LITA and they said they're getting a couple of hundred extra copies of each one of these to replace any mistakes. Get in …
  • This spot is awesome. Currently watching "dance for a chicken: cajun mardi gras." Thanks for the tip!
  • I enjoyed the documentary. I also appreciate the criticisms mentioned in the previous posts. It is obviously dated, and picks some really extreme examples to highlight the main argument of cultural hijack. I thought the use of "wigger" to critic…
  • Street digging finds all. Holmes, nice 7's. I like that Swiz record -- I found some Victory records Haaaaaaardcore this weekend. Ken Boothe . . . smooth. Congrats on the nice find's yinz.
  • Sigmund Freud's Impersonation Of Albert Einstein In America - Randy Newman
  • I add a pinch of salt, and a little bit of baking soda.
  • I appreciate the distinction of Blue Note before & after UA. I'm half way through the Kahn book & the descriptions of the label design (Creed Taylor driven) and power of ABC to make longer-recordings is pretty interesting. Worth picking …
  • Respect to both catalogs, but I vote blue note. Impulse has some great stuff: yusef, sonny r, P.sanders, and of course coltrane. But BN's grant green, miles, bobbi humphrey, gene harris' nexus . . . as thursdayalley pointed out there is a good re…
  • 'eh. OPP I guess. MJ sample right? I saw NBN in 1992. 15 bucks and 15 minutes. I saw NBN (free this time) in 2005 (again perhaps) and again about 20 minutes.
  • (. . . ) Love 'em or hate 'em, URB Magazine has stayed around longer than almost all of these publications and one reason why is that their aspirations were always moderate. Their circulation only does a fraction of what some place like Vibe or XXL…
  • Winners y'all. Cbear, we at peas from our garden last night -- nice feeling. W/ the big zuccini's I'd recommend stuffing em. Black beans, bread crumbs, some kind of soft cheese (or vegan alternative). Goes good with Szabo. Doughboy, sorry abou…
  • Seems like the 'strut had a serious evening last night. I saw the news & started playing records, dancing and drinking. Folks showed up & we got a little rowdy. I'll be honest & say that I was the first one down. Asleep in my chair, …
  • happy anniversary Holmes and nice records. Karlophone, you are a criminal and must be stopped. Nice up y'all. I ran up to Eugene w/ my partner. We went to the black sheep gathering, a sheep & wool fair. Knitting, spinning, hanging out. Als…
  • Heads down -- peace out to the original. I can't hear his name without thinking of "IZ" throwups on repeat.
  • Way ahead of schedule this AM . . . lounging with coffee & dyke and the blazers at 7 . . . I'm sure I'll pay later on. Stirfry. Tip one: I'm with Mylatency's mom -- fry yer main ingredient before hand. Keep it crispy. If it is tofu, try d…
  • *ding* I'll defend Stone Blues. Boogie, harmonica, bracing lyrics -- chicago style sped up (speeded up?). Good ish.
  • 1. Lets acknowledge that there a bunch of good reasons people might not want to post pictures of themselves on a message board. I can think of a few reasons: sexual harassment, immigration status, legal difficulties, and of course the possibility …
  • RIP! I miss that organ sound.
  • "Back then all I had was a nice apartment, some nice clothes, a fast car and a hi-fi . . ." says the dude as he leads me to the stack of records on his porch. I can picture him in his flair. Especially after seeing his vinyl. Nice day for …
  • uh . . . those are some nice records. Courvasier up for them Montreal finds. All I ever found there was a fistfight outside fou founnes electrique. And Holmes your spread just got radder as you scrolled down. Toast to your records too, but quick…
  • 1. Although people should ensure their safety, I think it is unwise to make decisions based on what other people might do with your posts. We have no power to influence the way other people read what we post. You could post a record you're quite …
  • Spoken word hit? Hamlet. Olivier? Icey stare of the danish prince who just lost his dad . . . tear me up like ol' yeller. Punkers from pittsburgh. I loved these guys and saw them all the time at the 31st street pub. Beer showers from the b…
  • By genre, then by artist, then by release date. + a few hundred unsorted on the floor. This has been my style for the past year or so, but in the present reorganization, I'm going straight a to z with a few exceptions: *various artists sorted by…
  • Funky16corners, why by region? I sort. Genre, artist, title. All alphabetical. I'm wondering about Faux Rillz & artist broken by date. It must give a nice perspective for the artists you have a lotta records. But it seems like it'd be ea…
  • I skate on the streets every couple of days. There is a free park in Arcata that I skate every once & a while, but my ancient style is bit awkward w/ current youth, so I tend to go early. I still skate -- I just ride a blank board now. Int…
  • A late sunday entry. An audiophile friend happened to have a box of 45s. I took a stack, and a fistful of 'black classical music' and . . . stevie wonder singles, yep. Willie Frugal with the Modeleste science. On the red clay, I'd listen to that…
  • Up & caffeinated early for the local yard sales. Fun spot this am was the entire city of fortuna having a yard sale. The downtown was closed for four blocks w/ sales on the street. Plus home sales. I dug many records. Lots of folks who wer…
  • I know there are some purists who never go in the dollar bins. But I enjoy it. You do need a system for sorting crap. I'd say that I take a crate or two of reject records to my favorite thrift store every two weeks. Every record that comes home…
  • 10-20%. I'm about to change that . . . sleeves on order.
