I have this white label d&b 12". I don't mind sharing, but I have no good way to digitize the vinyl. Really dig Matthewman productions. has anyone ever compiled Sade b-sides and other non-lp cuts?

This just in: RIAA suing 90-year-old grandma for listening to a CD.

Open up a little. There are fantastic records out there that may not have "breaks" or "funk", but their own unique charms. When I was a kid, you could catch them playing all over, places like Peoples' Park in Berkeley. That (along with Tower of Pow…

The dreadlocked brother on the right toured as a guitar player w/ Bootsy.

Mezzrow was almost as well known for dealing grass as he was as a musician. He reportedly considered himself something of an assimilated black man (I can't think of a better descriptive term). Definitely was known as the jazz musician's "connec…

Social commentary is well and good but too often it's at the expense of being funny... as illustrated perfectly by dudes like Carlin. And aside from that, his jokes are pretty much at the level of a 12 year old. He's like the grandfather of un-funny…

Huh, Dane Cook, bro!

I went to see him a couple years back, a lot of it was not funny. He has some weak albums, too. But I'll still totally ride for the dude. He's a master of standing there talking for two hours, and I'm totally down with the old stoner curmudgeon thin…

I can hang w/ any Motown EXCEPT the Supremes. Been checking out the Hip-O complete singles boxes, lots of incredible stuff that got lost in the shuffle. Songs that are just as good as the "hits". Weird garage bands, blue-eyed soul, the Mynah Byrds…

I've had really high hopes for this one. I liked his other Blue Note stuff ok, but after reading ?love interviews, where he said he wanted to avoid the Santana-style superstar duets, and bring back the funk, I was intrigued.
-
I'm not into his interrupting. Gotta say, the few people thay've tried to challenge on-air, it doesn't always work. They're too damn civil to debate a guest who is all Fox-style, talking over everybody. In this case, they would have been better off…
-
Oh man, that is cool. That Spoon song caught me the first time I heard it, too.
-
They were just on "Fresh Air" the other day. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=16690407 Is there a COMPLETE discography of their stuff anywhere? I mean with all the various permutations and name changes...?

You must be doing something right, people seem happy to deal with you. Thanks for letting us see/hear.
-
this one's pretty good for reggae related. then again, I'm not really deep enough into it to know what they're missing: www.roots-archives.com Pretty good but LPs only...and reggae is all about those 45s. For those, there is the "Roots Knotty Ro…

"Yes, there was another promo version! -Creed" That's it. All I got- no briefcase or "no bells" mentioned...but definitely 2 promo versions of "Mardis Gras". I expressed my desire to see a compilation of outtakes/ different mixes. 1) He doesn'…

i'm suprised ct hasn't let the cti/kudu back catalog be remixed and plundered/reissued/re released etc like they did blue note he could make fat $$$$sack if he did That's what I'm sayin'...apparently there were a lot of alternate mixes already don…
-
Kind of hard to believe that a big seller of reggae singles would off anything decent in a mound like that...it's gotta be the dregs.
-
White man w/ "black" surname here. Quite common in the UK, but I realized early on that most people I met w/ my last name were brothers. Always felt best not to talk about how this situation may have occurred.
-
It doesn't have to have funky breaks; club-friendly beats, I don't care. You are amassing a world-class collection there.
-
Down here in Africa, digging ethics reach a whole new dimension. You could literally buy records for pennies. I usually make different stacks depending on condition and estimated value. I pay $2 on stuff that I just buy out of curiousity. $10 for s…

Grace Jones instrumentals Black Uhuru Dub Factor lp and a cosign on Randy Newman's Baltimore- should have been the theme to The Wire??
-
Pretty sure there are not. That first one is a medley. A lot of their riddims did have vocal counterparts on Taxi 7"s, but they made a few inst. LPs in that era. I'm ok w/ these two, but I run from the room if I hear their versions of "Peter Gunn"…
-
I'm not suspectodisrespectifaccusatoryistic, but they're usually further altered when purged. And yeah, KZSC does purge once a year, KUSP purged some vinyl years ago, but not annually. Chill, dudes, we still cool.
-
I hope that one record wasn't actually stolen from KUSP.

I'm jealous! sounds amazing. and "Poison" is hands down my favorite jansch song and a great choice for the encore Yeah, I love Bell Biv Devoe. R&B on a smoothed out hip hop tip....
-
Shit yeah. But I ride for Pentangle big time.

Just a straight instrumental on a Euro 12". No big deal.
