I discovered Albany the old-fashioned way - heard something on the radio (well, ok, a podcast) that I liked, looked at the playlist, ordered the side, Bim bam boom. This happens regularly, and I start noticing that a certain percentage of these things are on Albany, So ho-HO says I, and now, when making a BRO order, if I got room for one more, I'll do a search by Albany and pick one at random, just to see what comes in. Very little of it has been GREAT MUSIC or some such, but next to none of it has sucked, and as Clemmamommamobleysays, it's all darn interesting in the sense of being alive and in the process of still finding something. It's like having neioghbors that are not famous or anything, hell, they're just everyday people, but they're everyday people who keep it interesting, don't just sit in the house and watch TV all day, they actually come out and talk to you, and the conversation is not trite or boring. I like neighbors like that, although, sure, not every second of every day.

I like that George Walker clip a lot, and I like what I buy on Albany.

Oh my god, I had tears rolling from laughing so hard! RIP, much love here.

Oh shit, I forgot about Alvin Queen. Guess I need to look for that Nadi Qamar Folkways album too.

I can't stress enough how screwed up our garage is and how disinterested I became in the playing of music for a good while. There's probably a correlation there? If you're in no hurry, I will see what I can do. If you are in a hurry, hey, money will most assuredly not be an object: http://www.amazon.com/Quartet-Welcome-Party-Pete-Gallio/dp/B0006M1YMA

I see that Wardell Quezergue has some albums under his own name over the few years...any of them worth having? No Gene Quill, except as sideman.

First need to clean up the garage and find the damn things!

I have a lot more than that in my garage....

This is very useful information in determining that the records themselves are of pre-war vintage. This is useful as well, the book-binder angle. Leads me to wonder if this was a one-off, part of a small run done professionally within a certain town, or an "on demand" item offered from a certain business through word-of-mouth.

"Disguised heirloom", yes, thank you, that is what I'm wondering about. This thing looked professionally done, too much so, it seems to me, to be a one-off. If it looked like a scrapbook kind of thing, I could just chalk it up to individual fuckedupness, but there's a degree of..."production" to this thing that is a little too "efficient" for "comfort", if any of that makes sense. Is there documentation of anything like this being done, it seems like there would have to be more than one of these, it really doesn't look like something that was done as a hobby. I'm tempted to go back and buy it and take it to an appropriate museum/historical society/whatever, but I have no idea where to begin. Maybe I'm suffering from Pawn Stars mentality, looking for that Mark guy with the big hat & beard combo to come walking in and have the whole back story. Is Miller the man responsible for those "Johnny Reb" records?
