Skot's Rolling Vinyl-To-MP3 Conversion Carnival Thread.

Really the only thing that needs to be done is to never have full-on blank spaces in the filenames. Then everything is as good as gold.

Or replace the spaces with "%20" like so

I did rips of a Les Rallizes Denudes bootleg, a Lloyd Price 45 and a Coasters 45.

wow, sweet smoke for hotheads is incredible thus far (only 13 mins in). Thanks, scott!

i threw caution to the wind by including a 10 minute supertramp disco instrumental on there, but dammit, sometimes you just have to, you know?

just have to what, dance?

no, not dance, put a song on a mix that you are afraid might ruin things by virtue of its length or possible disco supertramp semi-corniness. i still dig it though. i think it works.

anyway, i started a thread about this album-length shaggy seaside ambient psych thing the beta band made and were gonna include with their first album but didn't and nobody had ever heard it, so here that is direct from casette:

loved the 80s Rock Box! And the 'tramp was one of the highlights!

btw, discogs.com sa: Estrellita El Mix is 1989, Full Beat et al is 1988 and Slammin' the Rock appeared on a coupla 1990 comps (but could be '89 I s'pose)

say yeah! is on the warlock warparty comp which came out in 1990, but i just figured that the actual track pre-dated the comp appearance. warparty is seriously one of my favorite records. it never gets old.

anyway, glad you liked it!

Hmm. I like that it's a relatively short mix. I'll have to give it a try.

You folks who have rare vinyl YOU MUST FIGURE OUT HOW TO RIP IT TO YOUR COMPUTER TO SHARE. IT IS YOUR DUTY. Now get to it. Email me if you need help. It's up to us to preserve this stuff.

Loving the Sweet Smoke II mix right now.
