I Actually Got Mine Yeas Ago In A $2 Bin............

Cover --OK

VINYL --Near MINT!!!!!!!!!!

Very nice! It's not Idris' best album, but it's nice to have something never released on CD. My copy is in great shape. It even has the original dope 70's yellow + black paper sleeve.

I also found a near mint 1974 Japanese pressing of Coletrane's A Love Supreme which I got for like 5 bucks. It had to have been priced wrong. I think they forgot a zero.

man i'm jealous

Actually the 'trane is 1976 not 1974, but yeah, I'm pretty happy about it.

I probably shouldn't mention the near mint 1976 Japanese pressing of the Charles Mingus Quintet + Max Roach that I picked up either.

I can't wait until the weekend so I can go digging again.

My List WOULD BE TOOOOOOOO LARGE But I'll Say...............


Most of the Oldest Blood, Sweat & Tears


.. .. ..

kenny rogers, barbra s, anne murray, neil diomond, perry como, herb alp, christmas tunes, dr. shivago OST (hohwever u spell it), nana miscouri, blood sweat n tears..

i think any of us who dig in the thrift shops knows the deal... its usually sh!t, but if you visit the bins as much as you can, you will hit a few decent pieces eventually...

best ive found in a big chain thrift shop is the Death Wish OST for 1 buck, mint... and just a couple weeks ago a load of dope hiphop singles with accapellas that im gonna beat to sh!t....

im all about flea markets though - just gotta find the right people who dont know sh!t about there collection..

Out hurr, when I go to the flea markets out here it's guaranteed 110 per cent that I find these:

1. Sydney Youngblood (its ablue cover forgot the name)
2. Kool & the Gang (white cover with a heartand a rainbow in it- ugly)
3. Staley Clarke "I wanna Play for You" - man that isht is so whack

BUT on the other Hand:::

They don't know about rare hihop out here

For example: Got the 2nd King tee album "at your own risk" in almost mint condition for about 10 Marks. And i got the first MAD SKILLS Album for 8 Euros LMAO..

ha!

ask and you shall recieve.

I stopped by the record shop that i work at, and the owner was holding a mint copy of Idris Muhammad "Turn this mother out" ......ill. it made my night.

I got it on CD a while ago because it was only available in Japan at the time. Not as good as I'd hoped...
