"ugh re-press! I hate re-presses!"
One of the funniest things for me is unspoken... when you find that perfect gem, and you look around like someone is going to fight you for it. You walk towards the counter convinced that someone is going to tackle you and take it. Then when you pay for it the guy at the register looks visibly pissed, probably because he didn't work the day before and missed the record when it came in. Too bad for them!
Hey,John, I remember listening to a CD (shh!) at Sound Exchange one evening, and seeing this guy come up to the turntable w/ a battered copy of the 1st Dolls LP. After a minute or so, he took off the headphones and I said, "Hey, man, nice score! You don't see that used too often." Wow, the look he gave me, it wasn't like he was a hipster, it was like he couldn't figure out why anyone would give 2 shits about that album. Like you said, "Whatta douche!"
"You passed Pere Ubu live for Poison Idea?!" - Curses . Foiled again.They figured me out.
The Ebay segment is funny.
I smelled a record the other day , because it looked water - damaged. I got a bit self - conscious about it.
The bit about Heroin addicts who once supported a more noble addiction , sad but true....OK ,not sad if you got some great records , cheap , but , still......
I don't really know what I say , because it's really a private pursuit. Sometimes I'll tell someone if they're considering something really good , that they should....
Once , I saw an English guy with a stack of CRAP Disco records that he's sure to make a huge profit from , back home (Nothing against my English mates. They KNOW it's true.). Separate from the stack was Moby Grapes' first LP (Yes , with the finger! But , I learned , recently , that's the lesser rarity of the two.)....I HAVE IT , BUT MINE IS A BIT BEAT....I gave him the thumbs up for finding it , he sneered. What a douche. Nothing against his nationality (My internal workings are partly English , too.), but , what a douche. He's have probably gone straight for the "Dance" section in the glory days of Wax Trax Records.
I still laugh at the elitist stance that they (we) exhibit.
"Oh, that's out-of-print. You can't find it anymore."

I hope i did it right!

I just wanted to say thanks again to Kopper for putting these comps together. They are getting noticed. I have songs on 2 of the comps with 2 different bands, and since they came out, both bands have received pretty cool offers to perform overseas.
ALmost forgot to mention - those are all brazilian bands.

Brother Panti-Christ said:hey guys...
yeah yeah yeah... for sure this is getting interesting.
SWT: thanks for the tips, will be looking into those...
Howie: I just checked out pics of you in your record romper room, wow! I've had the pleasure of some of my best friends having collections like you. And you are right, it's usually the best source to find something wacky and weird for sure. What I would totally dig from you is just a tip or two, just point a few weird records out. Maybe some South America Samba gospel garage jazz sampler that recently came out...
Stig: Thermos Malling is one of the true great artists and one of my biggest inspiration! The Spectral Light & Moonshine Firefly Snakeoil Jamboree sounds interesting, gonna dig around for that one right now, thanks!!
Is anyone else here taking notes??

I think even the best Country music videos are the worst videos I have seen. Particularly the "loveable loser" storyline. You know, the main character just shrugs his shoulders at all bad things life has dealt him. I looked but cannot find the one that highlights this, jet skis and all.
The Psychedelic Sounds of The 13th Floor Elevators in Mono. Every song is great.
Morning- Morning. very rare stufff. great record!
I love the Los Saicos suggestions on page 1. Will make me put that on right now.
but my album would be Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros - Rock Art and the X-ray Style. Obviously not garage punk but the album I would tell someone to buy (but they probably wouldn't like it and be sour with me for spending their money that way).
Any idea of when is the next Chrome Cranks' out?
Bobby said:
For a while noe I'be been listening a lot to The Church Keys- Work With It, & Tav Falco & the Unapproachable Panther Burns- Songs For Deranged Lovers. I'm really excited for the new Chrome Cranks album to come out next.
Tony Jonaitis said:The first Modern Lovers LP! Or...the first Velvet Underground LP...or The Soft Boys "Underwater Moonlight...or....hey, this question is too hard to answer!!!! You tell us what you would suggest!"
The paper I work for was nice enough to get me an iPhone, so I often listen to GP Pirate Radio in my car via TuneIn Radio.
hey if there are any Doors fans on the Hideout,go on youtube to hear for the very first time ''She Smells Nice''--a track from the LA WOMAN master tapes!!!!i just heard it for the first time a few seconds ago,pure Doors,pure Jim!!!!
I just put up my second article over on this site, and it's just a little rundown on the '80's cowpunk movement. I tried to do a somewhat informative but not too long-winded write up on the genre. You can check it out here: http://www.blackcountryrock.org/moonrunners/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=76%3Acowpunk-the-roots-of-alt-country&catid=1%3Amusic&Itemid=24
I was just signing in now to post about this very subject! Ha! I just saw this while watching MSNBC on the web! Go Fabienne!
