Digging - but in the Desert!

Where in the Devil's backyard can I go dig for records? In Palm Springs, not too many places to go to. There is Vista Records and Tapes out in Yucca Valley but Damn! What are some good places to go when it looks like Mars outside your window. I aiming mainly for cats that live in San Bernadino/Riverside CA

Palm Springs has places to dig there not abundant but my boy lives there and there are Goodwill's the Mall and a couple of other spots but Riverside def. not places to dig. San Bernadino & Pasadena on the other hand have tons of places.

Only know of places far away from the crib. I don't really mind drivin but I got a full life (read:family) and so it's not often I can go. Just wanna get a few places to check out once a month or so

Are there any Flea-Markets out there? Hit those up, they might have records. Even antique shops got a small collection for sale. I found a Tom Scott album in mint condition for 15 cents (The one with the female hips in jeans) in one of those shops.

Yup lately that's what I've been using.

Good Look fellas. Takin the search online.

most people on craigslist post the records under dvd/vhs/cd so just click on that link in the for sale column and it should take u to some

palm springs is overabundant with sinatra records and similar "old folk" records...


Vista music is kinda dry also, IME... the best thing i found there was best of mary wells...

actually a thrift store in yucca is where i found the winstons album with amen brother on it for 29 cents...


also, in yucca on saturday and sunday there is a swapmeet at the old drive in... MAD records, but all the sellers think they know their schit and be TRYING to tax... most of the recs at the swapmeet up here have been in those racks for years it seems, MAD WARPAGE and flowers up recs just sittin out in the sun every week...

i got tired of that place and havent been in like a year or more... im sure if you put some time in you MIGHT find something worthwhile...

To my man above, that's REAL good info! Definitely checkin' out the drive in. Where do you stay Fobedafied?

i rest my head in yucca right now but im also out in the southbay torrance/san pedro/carson areas of the southbay every weekend or two... i also drive alot, so im all over southern cali to tell the truth... its been a minute since i had the cash to dig though, which is a shame since i get around so much...
