Summer of road trips, Becky. We went to Ithaca and the Catskills at the beginning of July. Out to Michigan to see family at the end of July. Tomorrow heading for the Shawangunks and Maine before K8's back to work in Sept.

Will do, coela! If you see a bummy car with WFMU shirts in it slowing down, don't freak out!

I haven't gone anywhere no-how yet, but want to spend two or three weeks on a photo safari around the country. Just haven't figured out when yet. Otherwise I'll just head north to Grand Marais for a spell. The State Fair starts this Thursday and that's across the river in St. Paul, so at least that gets me to another city.

mmm I went to the Adirondacks, drove to Oneonta and Lafayette NY and up into the Finger Lakes for concerts and parties; and down into Pa. Mostly close to home though. After 6 mos. I am finally getting my car back tomorrow!

Handy Haversack:

Mr. Fine Wine, we did a little record shopping in Muskegon, MI, at the beginning of the month on our trip. The downtown has actually developed a record shop. Mostly nice reissues rather than older originals. We delved into a few thrift stores, too. Apparently a dealer had just cleaned out the best of them.

Fun fact: He actually had to kill all the other red hot daddies to collect on a tontine, clearing the way to putting that song out

@Becky, did not know that was Charlie Rich's nickname. I just looked up a photo of him and hubba hubba hubba.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:42pm
Dano59:

he was the Silver Fox even as a relatively young man ca. 1971.

coelacanth∅:

if country blues counts then Rabbit Brown, Hound Dog Taylor (bit of a stretch), Tabby Thomas
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 8:42pm
Mr. Fine Wine:

There's currently a good record store in inkster. Near Muskegon, in another seaside town, there's a kind of crazy record store with good stuff but dumb pricing.

We mourn a place in Pentwater that closed before we had the turntable resurrected. Here I am paying Brooklyn prices for Blue Öyster Cult like a schnook.

Handy, do you mostly buy the discography of BOC?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:45pm
coelacanth∅:

damn. i could've sent you an 8-track tape of blue oyster cult
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 8:46pm
Handy Haversack:

Well, "mostly" is a shifting target ... but no. I just remember they had a bunch of early BÖC and for cheap!

The one fun record left behind by the dealer at the thrift store in Muskegon was Rhythm Nation. Who are we to say no?

Gaylord Fields:

@MFW: I'm curious as to what "dumb" pricing is:
MFW: "How much for this Emanuel Laskey 45?"
Record Shop Clerk: "What kind of car do you drive? Or else, you got any carrots on you? I'd also take a baggie full of fish scales, or one filled with Mondale for President badges, or both in equal proportion. Or let's call it 680,000 yen, and it's yours!"
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 8:51pm
DanFA:

As the kids say, we have no choice but to stan.
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 8:51pm
Mr. Fine Wine:

Okay, okay. What I meant by dumb pricing was taking 10 minutes to look up a record on every website imaginable and deciding to charge the highest price anyone's ever asked for it online when there's a customer standing in front of you with cash.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:51pm
coelacanth∅:

regarding the fish scales:
i don't have it now but i can get it
we're good on the Mondale badges, if it's a small baggie

Hell yeah, Kitty Wells!

Howdy Tonkers! Hail Kitty Wells!

Mr. Fine Wine:

I left behind three clean copies of Too Many Tears by Miles Stone because of the dumb/stupid pricing. If anyone wants to go looking for them.
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 8:56pm
PigeonsAndRust:

I went to a record store like that and asked for 78s. They had two and one of them was the original Vocalion issue of "East Saint Louis Toodle-oo" in E-!! So the kid looks it up on the internet, but must have found a later repress or something, and after a few minutes shrugs and says "Ten bucks." I whipped that ten dollar bill out faster than you can say Jack Robinson!

Handy Haversack:

Ah, Monatgue. Gateway to the even norther!
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 8:58pm
Mr. Fine Wine:

Ha, Pigeons. I live for those moments. When they don't realize they're seeing the prices of the reissue of the ultrararity. Sometimes things even out.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:58pm
Becky:

All I have to say is the Inkster store is great and run by lovely people who take reasonable amounts of cash for good records.
