Shake-It Records here is Cincinnati, OH is fantastic: http://www.shakeitrecords.com/ An entire floor of new and used vinyl of all genres. People who work there know their stuff and aren't stuck up hipster assholes, either. Love that place.
Luna Records is across the street from my house, but the employees are total hipster trash. One dude really wouldn't talk to me until I bought a Velvet Underground album.
Vibes music is a few blocks away, on 54th. Their selection is okay, and the guys who run it are always super cool.
Indy CD and Vinyl is on 62nd/Broadripple. They probably have the best selection in the city. Staff is knowledgeable, but occasionally a bit snotty. Owner is a nice guy, though.
There's also "the record shop" on 62nd and. . . Guilford? It's by the violin shop. I've been in there once, and they were a bit too collect-y for my style. I like records I can listen to.
shout out to monorail in glasgow which is so cool stephen form the pastels runs it. i get my nuggets comps from there and a few cool hasil adkins records:)
Just wondering what cool record stores might be in your neighborhoods that sell vinyl records (The underground kind)
I'm working on song writing, and never have finished something I'd share with somebody, but I've found Garage Rock to be a musical godsend. I used to listen to a lot of Bob Dylan and such, and always was really intimidated by the number of ideas they crammed into a song-- both as lyrical ingredients and structural ideas. The Stooges and Standells kinda made me say, "oh yeah, Rock n' Roll can be kinda dumb."
I usually start off with a line or two that seems kinda clever (insults have been pretty fertile). Then I just sing a melody that sort of matches.
I heard an interview on NPR with singer/songwriter Andrew Bird, he said he just sings melodies and the works lyrics into his nonsense vocals. It kinda works.
If you can find it on ebay Shure use to make an awesome Mid-grade mic called the "Shure BG 1.1" I purchased mine years ago in the 90s and still use it today for studio and live stuff. It's a wonderful dynamic mic! I've recorded Vocals, guitar amps, Snare and Bass drum, and I've used it as a room mic, there's nothing it can't do and it's cheap if you can find one! I think it's more underrated than anything
try your local flea market for the bullet mikes. i got mine for 25 bucks. i'd love to get some mics out of old reel to reel decks just to see what they would sound like. probablly sound like shit but thats the sound your going for right ? i think it's the electro voice 664. looks like a ray gun.
Thanx to everyone fer the comments and wreck-o-mendations ...Lord, I'd luv a Green Bullet...anyone know where I can find a decent used (old/original) fer sale? ...gonna have to scour eBay, I bet...ug.
If you want a good quality mic go for a Beta-58, pricey but really good. It will do a lot more than just vocals. I personally like the beta-57, a good quality overall workhorse.
If you want a bit of a garage/trash style sound go for the older green bullet mics already mentioned. And make sure you get one of the old ones, the newer ones are shit, strange rattling sounds and not a lot of grit. These tend to be great for vocals or harp (what they are intended for) not so great for guitars etc.
If you want to try something different to the shure brand mics the mid price AKG's are worth a look.
i have a few old japanese mics that are used. an old shure green bullet is good for a trashy sound or an electrovoice 662.
Get a vintage mic. Like an Astatic JT-30 with Cristal or Ceramic Element, EV RE-10 or American D-4-T. Or use a modern Shure SM-57 stick it into a Guitar Amp with some Delay for real Distorted Vocals. The JT-30 has very unique tone stick it into any PA for some vintage flavour. Find some on E-Bay look for Harp Mics.
You garage heads who dig that Yardbirds sound will like to wrap your ears around a tune called "Pockets of Rain" by Finland's Them Bird Things... Jim McCarty digs the tune as does James Lowe of the Electric Prunes, who wrote the liner notes for the album... then there's some psych gems and folk-rock excursions as well on the debut album, "Fly, Them Bird Things, Fly!" which you can hear at www.myspace.com/thembirdthings... produced by yours truly with songs written by two members of Mike & the Ravens...
same old tiemen. calgary's favourite band-hater. anyone else, have a listen and see what you think for yourself. T. Depression said:

Personally, I think punk is a much more accurate term for a lot of sixties rock than garage rock is. Did they even have garages in New Zealand? I mean, look at My Generation by the Who. That was is full of venom just as much as any song on Crypt. Greg Shaw called it punk in the beginning but only switched to calling it garage just to avoid confusion to those who think punk begins with the Ramones. The Standells, Seeds, and Music Machine actually practiced in real studios. Sure, we got to finally see photos of ? and the Mysterians in a garage but why does that make it garage rock? Like I said, I think punk is a better term for a lot of sixties rock.
I dunno... I quite like a good feed of beef... Michael Kaiser said:

If the sound engineer can't sort out the drum sounds in under ten minutes then they can fuck right off.
I've worked as a live sound engineer and drum sounds aren't that hard. The only time they are hard to sort out is when the kit isn't tuned and that's the drummers problem not the engineers. you just can't EQ out shit.
The problem with most engineers is that they try to play the part of the producer as well as doing the sound engineering. Big fucking mistake! The sound system in any venue is only there to reinforce what is happening on the stage. The other problem with engineers I run into is that they are generic clones from some fucking audio engineering school that taught them how to work with super-groups in the studio but not how to deal with real bands in a real live sound situation with average equipment.
And of there is the last part of the equation which is the band. If you play on the stage like you do in the garage at practice (so everyone can hear each other) there really shouldn't be a problem a sound check.
