Salutations™!!
The BCPF’s and my trip to Underdog Records was cool because we got to see Clay Howard and two of his girls. One really must see Clay Howard often. There were a plethora of cool things to find there. Here’s what we picked up:
- Herbie Hancock – Maiden Voyage (suggested by my pal Bill since I’m really getting into the jazz thing, new)
- Beck – Modern Guilt (reissue of the 2008 release, new)
- The Proclaimers – Sunshine On Leith (yes, that “500 Miles” song, the whole album is pretty great, reissue, new)
- R.E.M. – Dead Letter Office (a collection of rarities, covers and B-sides, limited release, VG+)
- R.E.M. – Fables Of The Reconstruction (NM Simply Vinyl copy of this landmark album)
- Creedence Clearwater Revival – Bayou Country (VG+)
- Eric Weissberg & Marshall Brickman – ‘Dueling Banjos’ From The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack ‘Deliverance’
- Huey Lewis And The News – Fore! (my second fave Huey album but contains my favorite Huey song, “Jacob’s Ladder,” VG+)
- Blackfoot – Strikes (VG+)
- The Fabulous Thunderbirds – Tuff Enuff (one of the first cassettes I purchased with my own money when I moved to WSNC, VG+)
- Rickie Lee Jones – Pirates (VG+)
- The Police – Ghost In The Machine (I am most excited about this from yesterday, $1 bin find but plays great other than a slight skip in the first song on Side-B, VG)
- Daryl Hall And John Oates – Beauty On A Back Street (handed to me by Clay from the $1 bin, VG)
- Charles Aznavour – Charles Aznavour (because we love French music, $1 bin, VG)
- Beethoven – Toscanini And The NBC Symphony Orchestra – Symphonies Nos. 5 & 8 ($1 bin)
- Beethoven, Arturo Toscanini, NBC Symphony Orchestra – Symphony No. 3 In E-Flat, Op. 55 (“Eroica”)
- Arturo Toscanini, Ludwig van Beethoven – Beethoven Symphony No.6 “Pastorale” ($1 bin)
- Rodgers & Hammerstein – South Pacific ($1 bin)
- The Kingston Trio – … From The “Hungry i” ($1 bin)
- Paul Mickelson – Christmas Bells ($1 bin)
- Unknown Artist – 25 Most Beloved Melodies ($1 bin)
There was another album that wasn’t listed on Discogs. It’s about 55 years old and is surprising to me that it’s not there. That’s three that I have to put in, I guess. It’s just tedious work. But, yes, I noticed that Jonathan had a shload of turntables that he’s probably going to put up for sale. Now, before the holiday season is the time to get a jump on your vinyl collecting.
Until tomorrow, same blog channel…
Scorp out!
