Den's Record Thread - How many records did Den or NES_Rules buy today?

[NES_Rules]

It was in pretty sad shape, the jacket was almost completely covered in a fine mold and was barely readable and the vinyl was pretty scratched up too.

[den68]

that sucks. that should only happen to Barry Manilow albums... not the damn Beatles.

[NES_Rules]

Not much this weekend. 
But I got a couple free 45's
Kool & the Gang- If you feel like dancin'/Ladies Night
Hall & Oates- Diddy Doo Wop/You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling

Also got Deep Purple's Machine Head (no jacket) for a quarter.  It was kind of funny because it was mixed in with a bunch of classical, christmas, and religious music. 

[NES_Rules]

Found a garage sale with thousands of 45's for a dime each.  And I wanted to look through them all, but just didn't have the time, so I skimmed through quickly and picked these up.
Billy Joel- All ABout Sou/You picked a real bad time
-Tell her about it/Easy Money
Beatles- Revolution/ Hey Jude
-Got to get You into my Life/Helter Skelter
- A Hard day's night/ things we said today (does white vinyl mean it's valuable??)
-Yesterday/Act Naturally
5 man electrial badn- signs/ Hello melinda goodbye
Crosby, stills, nash- long time gone/Ohio
-Southern Cross/Into the drarkness
Elton JOhn- The Retreat/I Guess that's why they call it the blues
J. Geils Band- Rage i the Cage/Centerfld
-Flamethrower/Freeze-Frame
Foreigner- Urgent/Girl on the Moon
Badfinger- Day after Day/Money (I've never heard of this band, but my dad insisted I buy it)
Def Leppard- Lets get rocked/ miss you in a heartbeat (just noticed I got 2 of these)
Rolling Stones- Mixed Emotions/ Fancy Man Blues
-When the whip comes down/beast of burden
Heart- Tell it like it is/ strage euphoria
Bad Company- Wild Fire Woman/Feel Like Makin Love

[den68]

Badfinger was one of the bands on the Beatles Apple label. I'm sure you've heard this song:



yes, colored vinyl can be valuable. it's tough to come across. nice find!!

[Tan]

Day after day is an awesome song, nice find. 

[NES_Rules]

I listened to that Badfinger record, and I don't recognize the songs, but it has a good sound to it.  Very similar to The Beatles' sound. 

And I forgot to mention that a few of the records had Jukebox tags with them, so I think the guy that owned them used to have Jukeboxes. 

[NES_Rules]

Payed $0.50 each for:
Three Dog Night- Captured Live at the forum
- Harmony
- Cyan
- Seven Seperate Fools (still has all 7 cards )
Bachman Turner Overdrive II
Grand Funk - We're An American Band
- Cauht in the Act
Dan Fogelberg- Phoenix (The name sounded familiar but I don't recognize any songs.  Wiki says he is Rock and Folk Rock, so I can't wait to listen to him)
 45's:
Billy Joel- Modern Woman/ sleeping with the TV on
Heart- Shellshock/ These Dreams



The other day at Goodwill I was looking through the records and found The Who's Happy Jack. I was ecstatic until I realized there was no record inside the jacket   I searched through the pile of loose records, but couldn't find it. 

[NES_Rules]

Not so good weekend for games, but I made up for it with records

Got these plus a TV (see 'unrelated' post) for $12.
Grand Funk Railroad- E Pluribus Funk  (very sweet jacket)
Uriah Heep- Uriah Heep
Beatles- Rubber Soul
Savoy Brown - Hellbound Train (never heard of them, but the artwork looks neat, I'm expecting either Metal or Psychadelic)
Rolling Stones- Got Live if you Want it
Yes- The Yes Album
Rod Stewart- Every Picture tells a story
Elton John- Elton JOhn
Moody Blues- To Our Children's Children's Children  (loose record was inside Elton JOhn Jacket)
Graham Nash/ David Crosby- Graham Nash/ David Crosby

Then I got a ton of albums at a sale for $10.  I'll probably only keep half and this is them.  The rest are orchestras, plays, and the Tijuana brass. 
Rod Stewart- Smiler
- Atlantic Crossing
-Sing it again Rod
-Every Picture tells a story
Johnny Cash- Christmas Spirit
Eagles- Hotel California (loose)

 - A1A

David Bowie- Ziggy Stardust
Arlo Guthrie - Alice's Restaurant
War- The world is a ghetto

Some that I'm sure if I'll keep, a couple names sound familiar, but I can't place any songs.  But, most of them I've never heard of, so I'll listen to them and see if they're any good.   
Gordon Lightfoot- The very best of
 - If you could read my mind
 - summertime dream
 - classic lightfoot
James Taylor- Mud Slide Slim
JOhn Mayall- The last of the british blues
the roches- the roches
best of the british blues featuring Eric Clapton and JOhn Mayall
JOhn Prine- Pink Cadillac
 - Bruised Orange
 - Diamods in the rough

 - Common Sense
Outlaws- Lady in waiting

Ian Hunter- You're never alone with a schizophrenic
Rickie Lee JOnes- Rickie Lee Jones
 - Pirates
Carole King- Tapestry
Cat Stevens- Tea for the Tillerman
 - Teaser and the firecat
Faces- A nod is as good as a wink...

[BadEnoughDude]

Mud Slide Slim is a great record. I listened to that a lot in college. Check out the song "Sweet Baby James." Can Stevens is also one of my favorite artists, and both of that albums you got are great. Tea for the Tillerman is particularly tremendous.

[den68]

George Harrison- All things must pass

NICE!! I've been hoping to find this one.

John Mayall is great. nice blues stuff.

that Faces album is really good too. Rod Stewart on vocals.

[NES_Rules]

Finally got a chance to start adding those records to my database, but I noticed something strange.
The album I listed as "The Best of the British Blues featuring Eric Clapton and John Mayall" was normal until I turned it over, which is listed as " The Best of the Humble Pie".  Now as I'm posting this I notice some of the label is in German.  British Blues says "Seite 4" which I'm assuming means side 4.  Humble Pie is "Seite 3" 
I can't figure out how this ended up in America and I want to know what was on sides 1 &2.

[NES_Rules]

   This guy had a garage full of records, he was apparently selling for his neighbor (who supposedly has 25 more boxes of records, probably 25 per box).  He said he sold over 250 to one lady earlier that day.

And the best deal ever,  all these for $25.

Many of these are marked "promotional copy" or something similar, and some had "WSRD" written on them with marker.  A little research revealed that WSRD was the old call letters for a local radio station.  So, the majority of these must have been from the radio station.  I don't think it makes them valuable, but it's a neat piece of history.
