A quarter each
Songs Everybody Knows - Lenny Dee
A Taste of Honey - Martin Denny
The Ventures Play Telstar
Uniquely Mancini - Henry Mancini
Bill Justis Plays 12 Instrumental Hits
James Bond Theme - Billy Strange
The Song of John Henry - Josh White
The Hee Haw Gospel Quartet - Roy Clark, Grandpa Jones, Buck Owens, and Kenny Price. This one didn't look like anyone had played it, but it has a few scuffs and light scratches from not having a liner. Sounds great though. Haven't had a chance to listen to the others yet.

 

Love that Henry Mancini Album. Plas Johnson's playing is really cool on this one. I have been looking for a good clean copy for a while.

 

I'm not sure this one is good clean copy, but it'll do for now. And it'll do for a quarter!

 

Scored a mint original thin Lizzy jailbreak lp yesterday. Awesome. also got a great condition Bruce Hornsby and the range night on the town and dire straits brothers in arms lp.

 

Here are this week's bargain bin finds:

 

Excellent taste, every single one. I just found out about Lenny Dee recently, and that Bill Justis (of Raunchy fame) LP will probably be great. Plus Ventures, Mancini, James Bond...very cool stuff.

 

xdawg strikes again...where to begin? Johnny Rivers, George Jones, Four Tops, Louis Prima, Randy Newman, and a pajama-clad Doris Day?

I also love that Long Riders soundtrack by Ry Cooder, great music. Nice work, Mr. X.

 

LOL! I only buy records that I think will please you Hominy!

Nah! I really like this stuff!

 

From Infinity Records in Massapequa Park, yesterday;

 

I found an RL pressing of LZII for $20.00 . It's in VG + shape

 

Had to drive all day and stopped by the Great Escape. Found a massive mint condition monster sized flat 3ft by 3ft for R.E.M.'s Reveal that will proudly go on my wall.
LP:
Belinda Carlisle-S/T Promo NM
Chic-Risque NM Monarch promo
Full Time Men-Your Face My Fist NM

And I took a chance on a LW AT Monarch Wheels of Fire that looks beat to hell but somehow plays at least a VG to VG+ mostly. Then I came home to hear Jack Bruce had died. Crap.

 

I love these Time Life cds. Picked this up today for $4.99.

 

Aww, that looks so cool, and you got it for a steal, well done. Gotta get me some of those. Time Life usually does a good job with their comps.

 

I agree. I usually pick up any Time Life comps I come across as they're almost always excellent.

 

nice!

Used store credit to fill in a few gaps in the CD library today:

Faces - The Definitive Faces (2CD anthology)
The Osmonds - Osmondmania! (single disc anthology with a ton of songs on it - wanted this for a while now)
Funkadelic - Finest (single disc anthology with some great deep album tracks on it)
Steve Hackett - Please Don't Touch (remaster with three bonus tracks)

 

Wings - Speed of Sound and Back to the Egg (Upgrade of BTTE)
Jennifer Warnes - Famous Blue Raincoat
David Bowie - Never Let me down Canadian 12" (I had the UK version, but the North American version had extra tracks)
Joan Armatrading - Me Myself I and Walk under ladders
Olivia Newton John - Greatest Hits 1976
Beverly Hills Cop - soundtrack album
Sheena Easton - debut album (upgrade)
Rod Stewart - Tonight I'm yours (upgrade to the one I got last week)
Cat Stevens - Numbers
Belouis Some - Imagination 12" single

plus three old Disney albums Winnie the pooh blustery day, Sleeping Beauty and Pinnochio.

 

I picked up a 2 disc CD by The Orb today. Ever since they did that album with David Gilmour I have been curious what they sound like without him.
The CDs look in pretty rough shape, but for 50 cents at least I will get an idea of what they are about.

 

Found a vinyl version of Neil Diamond's Hot August Night that I had never seen....gatefold with 4 extra pages and custom labels on the disc...jacket is a bit worn, but he vinyl is very quiet as I play it.

Chicago III - British pressing with a original CBS pricing label on the cover (5.99 Pounds!!!)...vinyl looks like it was never played.

both were 75 cents.

 

Some covers are slightly dinged, but all mint vinyl. The Chad and Jeremy is a mono promo.

 

There was a street fair in my neighborhood today with - lo and behold - a couple of vinyl tables.

Scored a gold label stereo copy of the Dead's debut. Cover is strong with a little bit of ringwear. Vinyl looks flawless. $25 but I'd been looking for a nice copy of this for a while, so it didn't hurt too much.

 

Scored all these for $15 today at an auction two doors down! Lots of big band jazz, but what I'm excited about is the lounge music. It's all NM and VG+ that I've seen so far!
