Name one or some of your best finds. Meaning, dollar bin come ups, free come ups, or just a dope ass day digging. I thoght this could be inspiration for those who are getting tired of digging.

I went to frisco with my girl a month ago and youll never believe it but right across the street from Amoeba some one had put a stack of about fifty records in the recycling bin. I told her to grab half and we jetted back to the car.

when i got home i had found a Blow Fly album which is funny as hell and three breaks one which was pretty rare it was a latin rock/funk band called Sapo the track: Been Had. Talk about the right place at the right time!

One time I was in Berkeley and right outside of Rasputin's was a stack that had Parliament Funkadelic, Bootsy Collins, Al Green, and few other heavy funk and soul groups. I was buggin...

Seriously tghough , I can't just name one record . I've pretty "lucky" when it comes to digging and have been able to find records all over the place for reasonably low prices. I do remeber this one time I got a tip saying some guy had records for sale and it turned out to be an abandoned house full of records, baseball cards and old Playboy magazines . I was the first to go through it and let's just say I pulled a ton of good records with over 1000% resale value.

Ashford & Simpson - Bourgie Bourgie

Super rare early Warner Brothers promo "Going Back To My Roots" by Lamont Dozier. Very sought after by jazz/funk 12" collectors

Eddy Grant - Timewarp (this record was way before its time) also under the name (The Coach House Rhythm Section)
