20 Years To The Day!
The Southern California meetups at various record stores, DJ nights and swap meets a decade ago (!?!) were fun; trading records and hanging out with Crink, Dizzy, Thes, Guzzo, Asprin, Drez, Yuichi, Shig, Einstein and various east coast regulars like Iron Monkey passing through. Thank you all. Thank you RAJ.

I skipped the local swap meet this month to make the drive up to San Luis Obispo and Morro Bay to do some fishing, sightseeing and hit some record shops for cheap finds. Stanley Cowell is a later repress of his '69 debut. Hugo Strasser has competent Santana covers ("Jingo" and "Black Magic Woman") and a monotonous alto sax take on "Paranoid" which is fun as a novelty. I did not have any Seeds or Fats Waller before, so a couple bucks well spent. Sealed cutout of Oliver Lake's debut as a leader, which was appropriate since I was listing to Pheeroan Aklaff and his other projects during the three hour drive to hold me over. "Adios Amigo" is the soundtrack to Fred Williamson's answer to "Blazing Saddles" and "Trinity" and the one of the many 70s Westerns he did after the trend died down.
BB: great job with with the Coke. The model on the left of that Chic is Valentine Monnier.

f*cked up kids names
I recently met a woman named Marie-Dominique at my job. I wouldn't say it's messed up. It's quite beautiful but unusual to me. Reminds me of nuns.

Thanks to the Louisianan producer himself who hooked me up with a copy years back out of generosity.
