An all-time favorite!

me too, used to have an Ajax vinyl copy that I traded in for a Guernica CD version probably in the late 90's, now I have it on LP again. I am kind of an Unrest completist, god help me.

they are made for completists!

Yeah, I was one of those suckers that bought the Perfect Teeth 7" boxset reissue.

was in a charity shop today rummaging through some mediocre classical records and a huge load of easy listening when a woman came through the door, dumped a box of records on the counter and then ran out. man at the desk just turned to me and said wanna look? so i picked up the following for one pound each:

comet gain - casino classics (fuck yeah!)
the knack - get the knack (white label)
rev horton heat - full custom gospel sounds
mudhoney - my brother the cow (with bonus 7")
thee headcoatees - ballad of the insolent pup
cows - sexy pee story (yes!)
rotterdam termination source - poing (dj promo)
*bad religion - stranger than fiction (white vinyl)
*rancid - s/t

*not sure i'm gonna enjoy these much but i'm guessing they're ebayable?

Wow lucky!

nice thrift scores!

I found the coolest upgrade copy of Horses - white title print instead of black, Bob Ludwig mastering.

(Patti Smith is an awesome goddess fuiud)

john carpenter & alan howarth - they live ost
lee noble - the ruiner
lawrence english - lonely women's club

some ridic cheap stuff in a charity shop (any 3 records for £2!):

There's a shop near here that I've drove by for years and you can see it's packed with stuff and I've wondered if there were records inside, well today I finally saw a car parked in front and there door was open so I stopped and the nice lady had boxes of records. She also has a storage unit with more records I'm going to look at this weekend. I found these for a dollar each!
The Fall Guys - S/T (Kathoots) Long time lounge want, band plays a great theme from TV shows and On the Road Again

delaney - some things coming
neil young - time fades away
link wray - beans and fatback
the roches - s/t
tyrannosaurus rex - beard of stars
scritti politti - cupid & psyche 85

beans and fatback is the last link LP i need! NEVER see that one.

really!? always find it weird when i see such american stuff over here, with a good price.
once i'd run out of money i saw ronnie lane's 'one for the road' and now i've got regret regret regret

I don't think the Link album was released in the U.S.

o that explains it

Long time since confession. Here's today's burden.

Ed Kelly Ensemble - Music from the Black Museum
Software - Electronic-Universe
Codona - on the spine it says "Collin Walcott/Don Cherry/Nana Vasconcelos," so maybe that's the title
Maceo Merriweather - Big Maceo Volume One
Little Brother Montgomery - Farro Street Jive (I'm just realizing this is electronically reprocessed stereo; I hope it still sounds good)
The Last Poets - This Is Madness (orig.)
various - Voice of the Computer
Gino Soccio - Face to Face (cheap dupe)
Leo Kottke - s/t?
Joh Abercrombie - Timeless
Elvin Jones - The Prime Element
Baby Boy Warren - s/t (I think this is sort of a boot, but it's a really nice boot. I guess it doesn't matter if the music is in the public domain.)
Lonnie Hewitt - Keepin' It Together
Le Quatour de Saxophones - Double Messieus
Charlie Rouse/Paul Quinchette - The Chase Is On
Horacee Arnold - Tales of the Exonerated Flea
Stomu Yamash'ta - the title is maybe Hans Werner Henze/Peter Maxwell Davies/Toru Takemitsu?
Nana vasconcelos - Saudades
Jon Appleton - The World Music Theatre of Jon Appleton
Percy Sledge - Any Day Now
Mary Lou Williams - Zoning (dupe, but it's so good that it's worth it just in case)
Muhal Richard Abrams - Things to Come from Those Now Gone

Jan Hammer - The First Seven Days
Roosevelt Sykes - Raining in My Heart
Smokey Robinson and the Miracles - Special Occasion

Jackie Wilson - I Get the Sweetest Feeling
Elvin Jones - Genesis
Yusef Lateef - 10 Years Hence
Angela Davis - Soul and Soledad
The Salsoul Orchestra - Nice 'n' Naasty
Earth, Wind & Fire - Another Time

oh, that's "Double Messieurs," obviously

Codona - on the spine it says "Collin Walcott/Don Cherry/Nana Vasconcelos," so maybe that's the title

there are three of these, I think 2 & 3 are numbered

Ed Kelly Ensemble - Music from the Black Museum

GREAT RECORD

Yeah, it's great, unostentatious, a lot of second coming of Monk stuff, but it has more surface noise than the look of it would suggest, so I'm thinking of returning it for credit. :(

you should look for ED KELLY & FRIEND if you dont already have it. "FRIEND" is pharoah sanders, who was unable to appear in the title or front cover due to some arista issues?

Jon Appleton - The World Music Theatre of Jon Appleton

^^^ great, weird record

what was your phrase, bryce, "John Oswald eat your heart out?"

That's me with the one-liners.

For anyone wondering about "electronically reprocessed Folkways records, I think they sound fine.

I don't have that Ed Kelly record, Pete. I'll keep a look out for it.

snuck away for a bit this past friday:

The Lafayettes - Life's Too Short 7"
Darrell Banks - Our Love Is In The Pocket 7"
Jon Spencer Blues Explosion - Shirt-Jac 7"

Dennis Awe - The Velvet Touch (Intercontinental) Organist with band plays standards lounge fare.
The Larry Mann Trio - Live At The Oceanfront (No Label) Virginian cocktail lounge trio with upright bass, piano and drums
Contrast Recording Orchestra - Music for the Big Scene (Contrast) Big band does interpretations of hawaiian, bossa nova and soft rock?
Jerry Anthony - Another Mood (Palanth) lounge pianist does Theme from Godfather, First Time I Saw Your Face and other nice standards
The Mexia State School Sunshine Group - Sunshine In My Heart (Century) Second record I've found of this school for the mentally handicap in Texas
Thornton Chisom and the Mexia State School Sunshine Group (Century) Same group but with a lead vocalist
The Jimmy Heap Show - Laugh Potion (Fame)
Adventures In Paradise OST (ABC) Feat. Alfred Apaka, Roy Smeck, Terorotua and his Tahitians, and The Islanders

That is a nice haul. Even slsking all the tracks on that Mister Charlie's Blues comp is hard. I think when I finally found a rar on the Internet I had to sleuth out which password went with which defunct blog link.

been meaning to revisit feats don't fail me now: long, long time since i last heard it, but remember it as being really good & le goudron is ace (don't think i've ever heard the flipside)

eagerly awaiting the arrival of the beefheart sun zoom spark box!

Feats Don't Fail Me Now is all killer, no filler

Sun Zoom Spark box is useless to me since I have all those Spotlight Kid Sessions from DIME. Super disappointing that they left "Funeral Hill" off of that 4th disc. I guess if the remasters are really well done I might look for it used.

Some cool stuff there sleeve, quite a few I'm coveting from over here (No Trend, Really Red, Poison Girls, would like to get the Damned and Wire on vinyl one day, just to begin with, and I'm sure the Dead C, Jad Fair, Slovenly etc are probably up my street too). I do have the Spizzoil 7" though.

take the toys from the boys will always be my fave poison girls song. on that EP.

also, dozen dead roses probably my fave no trend song.

the dead c should be up everyone's street :-) have fond memories of seeing them play in port chalmers over the years.

never had decals on anything but cdr so that's the one i'm most hyped about hearing, also means i can retire my warped clear spot (so glad i pre-ordered this before the price doubled)

Oh yeah I've seen the Dead C live and have several of their albums, just not that one.

mac from siltbreeze (r.i.p.) gave me a copy of clyma years ago. i played it once. and then years later i sold it. and that's my sad tale. i've never listened to dead c much. i'm not supposed to admit that. but there you have it. i listen to lots of other stuff though.

what's on the 'tentative power' ep?

the Xpressway "Hell Is Not Love"/"Bone" single, the Forced Exposure single, and a couple of other tracks iirc

I really want Ba Da Bing to reissue Operation of The Sonne, that's the only other "classic" era one that I need

oh, that FE single was great - it kind of spoilt the Dead C for me thereafter. that version of 'power' is terrific!

i finally got a copy of monoshock's walk to the fire on vinyl. double vinyl. i always wanted that one. labelmates with my brother at the time. blackjack records.

I wish I still had that, I think I sold it in the 90's

speaking of noisy guitars...

blackjack were the crew who put out liquorball amirite?

yup

the blackjack guy was in monoshock.

I wish I still had that, I think I sold it in the 90's

yeah me too! all my underground 7"s gone in one big clear out for £££ (including a liquorball single on glow-in-the-dark vinyl which was just so good). kills me thinking about it :(

xp oh right that figures

i think when they mastered the tentative power stuff it got slightly sped up in the process didn't it? i remember the guitars ended up sounding kind of balalaika like. got rid of mine since i already had most of it on 7" and clyma isn't too hard to find here. sometimes think operation of the sonne is my favourite dead c.

i gotta get to a regular record store to catch up on the non dollar bin / old man side of things. but anyway,

YES PLEASE

/braggin'

whoa! that's the super rare one, right? <3 <3 <3 hurley

I have a homemade CDR of it that I bought from Hurley at a gig, but I suspect his ripping gear is not exactly high end. still pissed at Mississippi for reissuing it on 8-track only.
