one of the perks of diggin is talking to people about music - not only gaining knowledge but the discounts veritas speaks of.

Us UK cats should make our beats from Klaus Wunderlich and James Last records!


Those Americans won't know what hit 'em!



Soul and funk indeed.

OH SH!T!!!!! I've been sampling Klaus Wunderlich's "Quick Step" - no joke!

To be fair, UK can be pretty sh!tty for really dope records, but you do have to dig pretty hard and make friends with the right people. My guy let me have a mint cond. original pressing of Revolver by The Beatles for £12 - $20?

I've seen worse condition copies being sold for like £60-£70 in other record shops in Londinium......

Yeah London prices are a bit :shock: so some proper diggings involved.



But I swear if I see one more Andy Williams record . . . . .





Long may the car boot sale reign.
