A good vinyl day at the thrift
« on: June 26, 2015, 10:34:11 PM »


The Dylan is a two eye mono.   The Oscar Peterson is a Japanese reissue on Quiex II vinyl.   A few of these I didn't even know had ever had vinyl issues.   The Graceland is  DMM pressing.   I had never heard the Emitt Rhodes but LOVED it.   All but the Ray Charles and the MC5 are in EX condition.

Nice haul STaL but it looks like Mongo got the really rare ones.

I took my wife to Joanne Fabric in Monroeville today so she could get some yarn (glad she has a fairly cheap hobby).  We were then supposed to go across the street to HPB but I want up to the task. We'll go next week sometime when I feel up to it. STaL, I'll let you know when so if you're in the neighborhood.

I had never heard of him but bought it due to the really cool scrolling art in the deadwax.   I REALLY liked it.   I had read the "one Man Beatles" thing on line, but it put me much more in mind of The Raspberries or maybe even Big Star.   That he did this all himself in a home studio at that time is really amazing.

In the area I go I hit about 7 to 8 thrifts and never come away with that many.  I dont think Ive ever come away with more then 4 at one time for that matter.

Awesome haul of lps you got there.
