Salutations™!!

Good day for The BCPF and me at Underdog Records, yesterday. Good stuff. Many $1 bin finds but a few new and fantastic finds, as well. Here’s the haul: 

• Talking Heads – Remain In Light (new)
• The Cure – Greatest Hits (new)
• Tom Waits – The Heart Of Saturday Night (VG++/EX- condition first pressing from 1974. I scurried to Underdog when he posted he had this)
• Portastatic – The Summer Of The Shark (The BCPF was excited about this one before we ever went. She found it and was even more excited)
• T. Rex – Electric Warrior (VG+ condition first pressing from 1971)
• Various – 2001: A Space Odyssey (Music From The Motion Picture Sound Track) (put this one back with the Tom Waits album)
• Various – Easy Rider (Music From The Soundtrack) (ditto)
• Stevie Wonder – Songs In The Key Of Life ($1 bin but in very good condition plus 7″ included)
• Janis Joplin – Pearl (Yes, I reamed this album on the RS list but I feel like everyone should have it)
• Creedence Clearwater Revival – Willy And The Poor Boys (The BCPF picked this up, I didn’t even know it was in the haul until I was cleaning and cataloging)
• Starland Vocal Band – Starland Vocal Band (Because who doesn’t love some “Afternoon Delight?”)

• Rusty Warren – Knockers Up! (I just had to, it was $1)
• Cole Porter – Cole Porter’s Can-Can: Original Soundtrack Album
• The New Christy Minstrels – Today (The BCPF rolled her eyes, but it’s combo NCM and a soundtrack)
• Crosby, Stills & Nash – Crosby, Stills & Nash (It’s pretty beat up, but The BCPF showed schoolgirl giddiness when she saw I got it)
• Bruce Baxter – Tommy (Excerpts From The Rock Opera)
• Kenny Rogers And The First Edition – Tell It All, Brother
• Chicago Transit Authority – Chicago Transit Authority (Continuing my collection of Chicago records. This is their debut)
• Bee Gees – Main Course (The BCPF find)
• Webley Edwards – Webley Edwards Presents Island Paradise (I don’t know, I just wanted it, $1)
• Joni Mitchell And The L.A. Express – Miles Of Aisles

So, yeah, a lot of good additions and some great listening yesterday. Getting started in vinyl? Have a collection you want to part with? Have a collection that you’d like to listen to again? Check out Underdog Records for all your vinyl needs (and wants). And use Discogs to catalog them.

Until tomorrow, same blog channel…
Scorp out!
