That Damnation of Adam Blessing is worth dwelling on! So did this purchase run the entire alphabet?

Left around 170 -180 lps to show
But if there is no interest I'll stop except if I need help and advice for some records (I'm new in the vinyl - sorry)

[gogo]

All "E" were totally unknown for me - (may be Don Ellis says something but not very clear to me). I chose by the covers - I love or not.



The record without name is Edwards Hand (George Martin from Beatles?)

Like I said before - looks like there are quite a few gems in that haul.

[gogo]

Pfuuu - now preparing the picture, I saw - I took twice "Frijid Pink" on every visit- may be because I know them (House of the rising sun naturally).
Chris Farlow I know and Zappa's Flo and Eddie - the rest is silence...
Oups - sorry - Flamin Groovies are not totally unknown.

[Sie Vulture]

Sunday's booters were a lot of fun - plenty to look at plus plenty of sunshine. Sorry no pics but I've got to travel off to work up north later this afto...

Various "The Best Of President Vol 1" (President) - best of comp from 1969 - you get all the usual suspects; Felice Taylor, Equals, Pyramids, Symbols, Casinos, Little Grants & Eddie...



George Benson "Erotic Moods" (Paul Winley) - resplendent with shrink and import sticker intact, very pleased to find a copy of this in a field in Cambridgeshire. For those of you who don't know it, check out "Smokin' Cheeba Cheeba" and "Loose Joints".

sorry, always assume that the folks on here know much more than i do, but seeing as you asked so politely and pleasant like ...

Sorry to have come over all shirty, but it just frustrates me to see no info about finds .... anyway - look at all the discussion that followed your follow up post I rest my case

I for one wondered if the El Chicano was worth picking up for cheap as it's not one I've got....

Anyway - I picked up a few £2 - £3 unplayed 70s/80s jazz from outside a shop yesterday.... surprised to find the classic jazz-prog Solid Gold Cadillac first LP in there - Mike Westbrook's group - a duplicate if anyone's after it. Includes the great funky workout - Pleasure City.....



Also got a duplicate copy of Dankworth Big Band - Lifeline LP.... (includes the Tomorrow's World Theme)... if anyone wants....

http://youtu.be/Z_vaOgnMXF0

Another surprise find in the bargain bin was Alan Branscombe's LP - The Day I Met The Blues... some nice straight jazzy blues with Tony Coe and Tony Kinsey in attendance.

Other bits and pieces...



Gust William Tsilis (vibraphonist) - Pale Fire (Enja) with Arthur Blythe - title track is a goodun' - spiritual jazz with teeth and swing



Low Flying Aircraft - S/T (Red Hot Records) with Keith Tippett... pretty uncompromising stuff - for me 'Poolside' and 'Moronathon' stand out as more accessible fun.



Bob Moses - Visit With The Great Spirit (Gramavision) arranged by Mike Gibbs with what seems to be the whole 80s jazz world in one big band! Great stuff - my favourite of the batch of finds - especially the squelchy 'Fan Man'

Sidsel Endresen - So I write (ECM) - melancholic nordic vocalist with minimal accompaniment (percussion, piano trumpet) - the song 'Truth' is gorgeous - just her and percussion.... (not the version on youtube)

Jan Hammer Group - Oh Yeah? (Nemperor) - synthfunk - title instrumental track (and single) Oh Yeah? is pretty good, but I prefer the song 'One To One'
http://youtu.be/YmmAhxCU0Fg

Michael Colombier - S/T (Chrysalis) Another star-studded effort - Hancock, Pastorius, Scott, Ritenour and the London Symphony Orchestra... pretty standard jazzfunk (http://youtu.be/S3L6rAIcZwQ) with the exception of perhaps 'Do It' - which is just that bit tighter:

Usual mixture of sources - set sales, charity finds, rubbish record fair, trade (many thanks Sie) etc...

Weird Lyons Maid sales conference LP from the boot - very strange. BJ Thomas from the boot - a bit ho hum. Best of Budgie is pretty good - especially the earlier stuff. O'Jays, Cliff, Midnight Cowboy and Dylan all nabbed from a charity that usually has no records - pleased to get the nice UK orig Dylan for a quid Clarence Carter from the fair - as usual a mixed bag but really digging the version of Light my Fire. Paul Mauriat from the fair - there was a fella with boxes of cheap records with what seemed like complete runs of LPs from some of our easy heros - Werner Muller, Alan Tew, Mauriat etc but all with the big LPs missing e.g. no Hanged Man, no Strip Goes On etc but I did find some good ones and saw some I've never ever seen before! All of them minty too - in this pic is a nice UK copy of the Rhythm & Blues LP.



Middle three in trade from Sie Fly - most chuffed - big cheers fella. All the rest from set sales - loving the later Wailers LP - nice mix of psych and garage. Philamore Lincoln is great too! Also digging the Martha Velez - NOT a two tracker!! The Coxsone comp was from the fair and is very good indeed.



Mostly easy gear from the fair - never seen the Werner Moody Blues LP before - strange LP - pretty good. Themes for Secret Agents is a spare. Mascara is a cheesy disco thing with a Moroder styled cover of 'Coming Home Baby'. Also pictured random dancey type 12s from a charity.

Check "See You In L A" fantastic track!

[mr sayers]

Killer finds there Lee mate, I nearly grabbed a couple of them LP's from that Waxi set sale (The Wailers, and Lewis and Clarke!). Hope you got them when he was offering the 30% off.

[mr sayers]

@MPFlapp, plenty of classic amongst that lot, still would like to own a few of them, especially the "Kenny and the Kasuals".

This is the "undergorund sunshine" single you need -

That's a top tune Craig...

Loads of good bits coming up of recent...

[Daddy Ya Ya]

From "c" I took all the Coltrane's records that the guy has. I have done the same with Miles, Monk, Mingus and Rollins albums. I don't know if here (Coltrane) there is something rare. If someone can tell me. And I have no time to listen all in the near future - I'll be grateful if someone tolds me with which album to begin my introduction with Coltrane.

The Africa Brass Vol 2 is a killer album 'Song Of The Underground Railroad' is one of my favourites and the alternate take of Africa Brass may just be better than the original.

Some great stuff in this haul !

What's on the Loft classics twelves?
Rainy Day by Philamore Lincoln is one of my favourite tunes ever... dodgy lyrics but oh so good

[gogo]

This lp is strange - the keyboard player is Tony Selvidge (Kaye) - latter in Yes. This record is registered only in Romania. Funny

If someone needs more details:

[vinylism]

Thanks! The funniest thing is that is result of one announce in 2 magasins;"I buy record vinyls". And after 5-6 calls with stupid propositions THE CALL. Hope they keep the promise - to wait and to accept to sell every month the records I can pay them. For every 20 records I pay I have 4-5 gifts . Good persons.

an enviable position to be in, hope it holds out - well done!

That HP Lovecraft is wonderful psych influenced by the horror writer with the same name. But maybe you knew that. Great album.

Do you know something about Highty Hi and Joe Alby? The record is signed by him.

It's one of the best psych LP's ever too my ears, can you tell I'm a big fan of it?

[geoff whitfield]

@ LDJB
The Ballistic Brothers - Peckings is a cracking track, long time fave of mine

Brainbomb, you sold that HP Lovecraft to someone at the outdoor Crillo, didn't you?

[Brainbomb]

Yes. One of my then 2 copies.

I felt one in great condition is enough...

Was gonna play something from it - much of it is quite spaced out but they lay down some headnodding trippy grooves as well:
