Salutations™!!StreetSurvivorsFlames

So this week will be a mixture of the take from Underdog Records and a shload of records that I didn’t know that I owned. Let me explain. About 10 years ago, my ex-wife and my mother went to an auction (they were always going to auctions) and purchased a ton of records. They only wanted to rock records but it was one of those, you take one you have to take the whole thing deals. Well, I didn’t have a record player back then. So they got stored. And, I forgot about them. About 3 weeks ago, my ex-wife asked me if I got the ones out of the cabin. What are you talking about? We didn’t have any in the cabin. She informed me that yes we did. I thought perhaps it was one or two things that I had over time. Well, I had to go in the attic with my mother and she said, there are your records. I was looking through and just like a kid, kept saying these are mine!?!? So, I brought them home and am going through them a little at a time. Many rock albums to add to my collection and a lot of jazz, folk and classical, too. I did the rock ones first. Again, these are mixed here.

  • The Cure – Standing On A Beach – The Singles (The BCPF had this when she was a younger one and had to have it, new)
  • Andrew Bird – Echolocations: River (former violinist for Squirrel Nut Zippers and we saw him open for Belle & Sebastian, new)
  • Queen – News Of The World (one of my favorite Queen albums, new)
  • Bob Dylan – Blonde On Blonde (#9 on the RS List, I really do not like this album at all, new)
  • Vince Guaraldi – A Charlie Brown Christmas (because who doesn’t need this? New)
  • Sex Pistols – Never Mind The Bollocks Here’s The Sex Pistols (#41 on the RS List, VG+)
  • Emmylou Harris – Evangeline (VG+)

  • The Charlie Daniels Band – Million Mile Reflections ($1 bin, VG)
  • Rosemary Clooney – Rosie’s Greatest Hits ($1 bin, VG)
  • Traffic – When The Eagle Flies ($1 bin, VG)
  • Kenny Rogers & The First Edition – Transition (purchased this off of Discogs, I’ve searched over 20 years for this for my mother, VG++)

This is the Bonus Stack below the line


  • REO Speedwagon – You Get What You Play For (VG+)
  • Peter Frampton – I’m In You (VG+)
  • Peter Frampton – Frampton (VG+)
  • AC/DC – Back In Black (VG+, RIP Malcolm Young)
  • Jimi Hendrix – Free Spirit (VG)
  • King Crimson – The Young Persons’ Guide To King Crimson (I have no King Crimson and I hear a ton about them, so here’s my chance, VG+)
  • The Doors – Weird Scenes Inside The Gold Mine (compilation, VG++)
  • Lynyrd Skynyrd – Street Survivors (one copy each of the flame and plain covers, VG+)
  • Lynyrd Skynyrd – Gold & Platinum  (compilation, VG++)
  • Lynyrd Skynyrd – (Pronounced ‘Lĕh-‘nérd ‘Skin-‘nérd) (#403 on the RS List, VG+)
  • Lynyrd Skynyrd – Second Helping (VG+)

  • Various – California Jam 2 (live performances by Santana, Dave Mason, Heart, Ted Nugent, Frank Marino & Mahogany Rush, Rubicon and Aerosmith, VG++)
  • Frehley’s Comet – Live + 1 (was mine, but I had forgotten about it, sealed, cutout)
  • Joe Cocker – Joe Cocker’s Greatest Hits (VG+)
  • Genesis – Nursery Cryme / Foxtrot (as the title suggests, it is both Nursery Cryme and Foxtrot in one package, I have Nursery Cryme but not the other, VG+)
  • The Dave Brubeck Quartet – Jazz: Red Hot And Cool (I have no Brubeck, yet, now I do, VG)
  • Foghat – Night Shift (VG+)
  • Foghat – Stone Blue (VG+)
  • Foghat – Live (VG+)
  • Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band – Against The Wind (VG+)
  • Alice Cooper – Billion Dollar Babies (VG)
  • Ted Nugent – Cat Scratch Fever (I strongly dislike Nugent and everything he is and stands for, I also would never spend money on him, but these were already there, VG+)
  • Ted Nugent – Weekend Warriors (VG+)

  • The Kingston Trio – Something Special (VG)
  • The Kingston Trio– New Frontier (VG)
  • Ella Fitzgerald – Ella Swings Lightly (we both love Ella! VG)

So, that’s a lot and that’s only the rock and few that The BCPF wanted to listen to. I have at least 50 more to put in that are of all other genres. This coming Friday is Black Friday and Underdog Records will have a ton of awesomeness for Record Store Day – Black Friday Edition. Go to the RSD website to find out what is coming. Jonathan said he’s stocking 90% of that list, so make plans now. And buy a gift certificate for someone, do it now and get an additional 10% added for no additional cost. And as you can see, we do a lot of cataloging with Discogs and we love it!

And RIP not only to Malcolm Young, but Mel Tillis passed away, too. RIP Mel.

Until tomorrow, same blog channel…
Scorp out!
