around the block from me my brother was drivin home and saw a crate full of records, i walked to the guy's house and he said there was a leak in the basement, it was freezing as all fu.ck out too but i spent my night outside going through the records. the covers smelt like shi.t and some were faded, i had to throw them out but I kept and cleaned off all the records. and the crate was PACKED, sure was heavy, but im happy i came across that. some aretha franklin, rolling stones, jimi hendrix, etc etc. it was a good day :)


U damn Skippy son!...thas what I'm talkin bout. The picture show beat up covers, but most of these records are in good condition once you clean them up. Some are in Sealed plastic! Even the ones with the trashed covers (some) look like a needle has never been placed on the record...almost an Armorall like shine cuzzins....No ish.

I know theres some finds in there. I'm going back this weekend and hand pick what I want instead grabbing a whole box or stack. I'm runnin out of space at home. And the thing about it, I can't catch up with the owner, I leave messeges on the answering machine but dont get any calls. There is at least another 400----+ ???? records in boxes laying on the Floor inside the joint...D@mn!!

Ha ha hahaaa...maybe we'll run into each other like the North going Zax and South going Zax...

A North-Going Zax and a South-Going Zax meet face-to-face midway on their journeys and neither is willing to budge to let the other pass by.

Funny sh!t.. I think a New Emcee, Rapper, shower Rhymist, Poetic Konkubine whatever....
can sharpen their skills on some Dr. Suess sh!t. I ain't none of the above. I can spit a bar or 2 but thas it.....but Damn I was listen to "The Realest" instrumental track and kicked some old Dr Seuss sh!t about the Lorax playing around with a $200 Mic back in December...That was some funny sh!t..and it connected!!!!

Looks like somebody hit the spot.
Theres Records all over the place back there in the back of the building.
Either some diggers came by or some kids or vandals just took pride in scattering vinyl all over the parking lot....Theres Black Tacos growing like weeds behind the joint!!! ha haha...Sad.
If ya gonna dig back there, at least have the common courtesy to leave what you don't want in box its in and keep on kicking. Its obvious the records are "Corn Dawgs for the Pickin" (Meaning Free .... all you
MF Doom fans no what I mean!) Just Pick and leave.... Free records.
Don't vandalize..
