  • I like the Apple (computers) and Apple (records) angle brought up here. :D I couldn't imagine Apple (computers) doing it any other way. As much as I hate all kind of branding talk, I see the point why they make a big issue of bringing the Bea…
  • Oh yeah, and thanks one more time to LokoOne for the records and Kinetic for supplying some RAER. I checked out the records on discogs, and surprise surprise, some of the Finnish diggers I know already got them (Marcia Hines, Daly-Wilson Big …
  • Kinetic said:Hey man - good to meet ya. Drop me a line if there's more stuff on the blog that you dig or want info on. I'll be down at Hive again next week spinning in the arvo so feel free to drop by with some records if you wanna hang out. T…
  • LokoOne said:Good to hear you made it to revolve. Nice ppl there, most of the staff are avid collectors and got that love for music we all do. Yo, we'll be at the Hive from around 430pm. Just give me a call when your heading up, Im gonna be d…
  • I visited Revolve Records today, the staff was very friendly and pointed out some nice Aussie records for me. Picked up Renee Geyer albums from '75 and '77 and Marcia Hines, the very basic stuff I guess! I also went to Egg Records and found i…
  • Thanks! I try to make it there, mad busy with the non-holiday part of my trip right now, but this should be over by Sunday!

  • If it's on the 5th, it would be waaay better for me as I'm leaving on the 13th. Let me know what's up and I'll try to make it there!

  • Heh, should have posted earlier! I spent half a day looking for the shops on Thursday ... I read about the Parramatta record fair in the announcements section, but I'm afraid it's a bit too far away for me. I'm staying in Caringbah, and it ta…
  • Another record fair ... any idea if this is worth visiting? Need to travel about an hour to get there.
  • Thanks for the heads up! I'll try to check it out, as I happen to be on holiday here.
  • while on holiday in Cairns yesterday I picked up Blues section Lp Finnish raer I'd say your stereotypical Finnish record fair seller with long, thin grey hair, a flannel shirt and/or a leather vest would easily ask you to pay ???100+ for that re…
  • Kastanienallee in Prenzlauer Berg has five record shops or so, if you intend to go digging ... there's also a flea market nearby on Sundays in Mauerpark. Monsieur Vuong has good Vietnamese food in Mitte, the address is Alte Sch??nhauser Str. 46.
  • Been there a few times, last time in 2005 so my info might be a bit outdated. I'd recommend Zizkov, the neighbourhood where the TV tower is located for cheap and good restaurants & bars. I preferred staying over there instead of the touristy ol…

  • The quality is awful, but the track is veeeery spacey! From Change "The Glow of Love" LP.
  • My great uncle is a freemason. No kidding, I found him on the list on a neo-nazi website, who feel it's necessary for everyone to know who's a mason.
  • Alice is a long time favourite. Finally got around to copping the vinyl. Happy is a Finnish jazz LP that I had never even seen before. How do you like that Happy album? I'm unfamiliar with it ...

  • I've been listening to Street Lady a lot recently. Great music for the spring. I had a chat about the "Thank You ..." album with the local record store owner a few days ago, he said it had been in the shelf for several weeks, apparently jazz funk i…
  • I think this vid is trying to channel that French civil unrest schitt from a while back. Exactly how I understood it as well. The banlieue scenes, burning cars, going for people's pockets etc. I was treated to some of the latter last time in Paris.…
  • What exactly are rooming houses? Kind regards, A European not in the know
  • Offtopic but whatever, maybe you're referring to the classic International Karate Plus?
  • Funny, the back cover of the LP lists a lot of information but does not mention Broad Street Gang. I don't know whether the whole thing was a musical / theatre production / whatever or what, but sounds weird that they'd do the soundtrack on two diff…
  • Something I found today, The Afro-American Ensemble featuring L.C. Grier and Novella Edmonds: Free the Black Man's Chains - a Black Rock Opera. LP on GSF. I don't have a digital camera (I still shoot film), so I had to snatch the cover from some eB…
  • Funny, I never knew one could fix records that have been damaged in storage. Now I know. I guess it was worthwhile finally registering here and paying a bit more attention to the discussion.
  • Incredibly annoying: writing the price on the inner sleeve, or even worse, inside the cover. Leaving piles of records around the shop that have been sold already, so you never know if you can actually buy the records. All of this in the same record…
