Salutations™!!

The BCPF’s and my trip to Underdog Records was a bit of a lighter load than normal, yesterday. That’s okay. It helps with the pocket book. I will include two albums on this that we got previously but not on Discogs because I had to enter them myself; they’re after the line. That’s a long and arduous process. All the credits need to be included individually in each song, person, etc. Again, long. For one album alone it took me almost an hour to do. Anywhat! Here’s the haul:

©Reprise Music

• The Church – Starfish (great album even beyond the two singles, new)
• Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark – The Punishment Of Luxury (brand new music from this band and it’s good stuff, new)
• Neil Young – Hitchhiker (previously unreleased album from 1976, new)
• Iggy And The Stooges – Raw Power (2xLP set with the original mix by David Bowie and a remastered mix by Iggy Pop, barely used, NM+)
• Ringo Starr – Ringo
• Various – Casino Lights
• Jim Stafford – Jim Stafford (somewhere there is a cassette of me, at about 4 years old, singing “Spiders and Snakes”)
• Stars On / Long Tall Ernie And The Shakers – Stars On Long Play
• Ohio Players – Honey
• Rod Stewart – Every Beat Of My Heart
• Art Garfunkel – Watermark
• Jo Basile, His Accordion And Orchestra – Accordion De Paris (again, our love of Parisienne music)
• J. Haydn, Karl Ristenpart Conducting The Chamber Orchestra Of The Sarre – Symphony No. 6 “Morning” / Symphony No. 7 “Noon” / Symphony No. 8 “Evening”

• ---

  Willi Boskovsky, Vienna Philharmusica Symphony Orchestra – A Thousand And One Nights & Other Viennese Favorites (I got this about six months ago, it wasn’t on Discogs and thought it would take longer to put in, took about 15 minutes)

• Joan Osborne – Songs Of Bob Dylan (this one took about an hour to put in, not necessarily a lot of credits as much as the listing was wacky)

So, a shorter list this week and that’s okay. If you want to get back into vinyl after a long hiatus or are looking to see what all the buzz about vinyl is, then head over to Underdog Records and talk to Jonathan. He can direct you. The new and used vinyl are all competitively priced and you’ll find deals every day. Listen to The Less Desirables each week to hear what that week’s Underdog/TLD special is. And when you start buying again, archive it all on Discogs and show pride in your collection.

Until tomorrow, same blog channel…
Scorp out!
