Fun list!

I'd love the classical boys if not taken already:

Stockhausen

Faure Requiem on Argo

Prokofiev, Karel Ancerl on Supraphon

Someone should Defo grab that BRIAN SHARP - couple of mad Hammond tunes on there.

[bongolia]

those 3 classical are yours

will have to re-check that Brian Sharp! remember it being a bit of a vanity project and wishing he'd let the bass and drums have more of a turn (unless i'm confusing it with another and it's bass pedals and rhythm box on this one)

[Milesago]

Boston Band Show please.

[someblokecalledfuz]

Someone should grab the Skywegians - excellent rockin' C&W and the Brian Sharp has a pretty good version of light my fire on it if memory serves...

Seconded. Really great LP.

Could I grab

Mohser Raies - skinny tunisian
Meet Mr Smith - strange obscure mid 70s nostalgia thing, someone singing old time songs - cool Magritte style sleeve
Les Baxter - South Pacific, nice UK issue
& the Brian Sharp if you don't want it... thanks!

was about to write something like "skinny tunisian peter serafoniwicz in an amazing sparkly suit", but deleted most of the line, what was left didn't really make sense!
anyway, it's Mohsen Raies, all vocal tracks from memory.

forgot to mention that the Les Baxter is stereo, which is nice - these UK Capitol issues are often only mono.

Brian Sharp is yours

[bongolia]

Boston Band Show please.

Bostok Band

and it's yours!

[bongolia]

also just noticed the Stu Stevens has an 8x10" photo inside, blue safari suit and medallion

[amidar]

Could I grab the 'Iron Butterfly' and I'll give the 'Skyweigians' a go and the 'harmonites' if its not gone please. Please dont send me the loner I already own a posterless version currently in the to be ripped box and I cant remember why, must be something on it that grabbed me.

[bongolia]

yep, no problem

just had another listen to old Stu Stevens. This was my first of his that I've heard. There's a couple of pretty good songs (Had To Run and Miami Sunset), and the whole of side 2 isn't too bad a listen I suppose (I survived, anyway). His voice isn't bad but occasionally goes a bit wrong. Probably have worse records by actual US artists on proper labels, I'm just biased against UK attempts at country, plus all the "Stu Stevens International Fan Club" etc on the sleeve is a bit unnecessary

[amidar]

Cheers Bongolia your'e a gent! Seems my spider senses were on the right track then, not a keeper but maybe something for a future mix.

[Sonovox]

Could I have 'First Men In The Moon', the Betty Wright and Lake II please.

[bongolia]

of course! First Men In the Moon has a tatty sleeve - it's an ex-library copy, but record is fine

[Milesago]

Bostok Band

and it's yours!

Ah, my mistake, sorry, thought it was Boston.
I'll return this one to the herd.
So it's up for grabs again!
