Wish I'd got to see him. He was scheduled to play at the University of Kansas in 1997 or so and was too ill to make the performance.

Good question. I've been on since 1998 and am not sure. I know PayPal is owned by eBay. You probably should set something like that up if you can - most buyers are herded into fearing the non-paypal.

I like the Hat quite a bit also. Loadstar is excellent. I don't have the Denons but would like them. Wasn't as impressed by the date on Fluid by a similar grouping.

Great great album! Just managed to snag this one for $5 and Dupree is on fire! What a surprise to get such great jazz at this price! I once hemmed and hawed at $40 for an original; I think it was a little worn. I should have bought it and have been kicking myself since.

I like this set! Got the LP well before it was out in digital form. I hope they cleared up the print-through because that could be a little wonky in the listening department. But regardless, recommended.

Would love to get this disc.

Yeah, I had no idea he was that old I guess, and had forgotten about Empire of the Sun. Mostly read later dystopian stuff.

Yeah, I feel that way with my 18-year-old patrons at the university library wearing Nirvana t-shirts. Now: The Band - Music from Big Pink - (Capitol original)

JG Ballard dead at 78 He will be missed...

I had the Stuttgart LP - got it cheap, maybe $5 sealed years ago. I remember thinking the sound quality was pretty weak at the time.

Joni Mitchell - The Hissing of Summer Lawns - (Asylum) Fond memories of my childhood and my parents' record collection.

Happy Birthday!

A lot of people would echo that sentiment. One Step Beyond, for example...

Lloyd Schlummer, Jr. Clairvoyant or scam-artist?

"I licked Norah's blood"

I have that record and it doesn't look like him on the back cover... at least compared to the BNs I have. It's not a bad LP, though. Bob Reid wasn't a BAG cat, either. He was from Alabama and lived in Paris from the late '60s. Played bass with Archie Shepp, Sunny Murray, Byard Lancaster et al.

Which is, unfortunately, probably why it sold out.

Clement Greenberg would still take his ass in a fight, I'll bet.

I think that one came originally with a 'swirl' but still - good find. Yeah, it did - and that would've been a better pressing also, but I'm not going to complain. It's hard enough to find Quicksilver Messenger Service records in a shop down here, so..

I'm sorry and call me insensitive, but if it were a company that would fire me over a facebook profile, it's not one I'd want to work for anyway.

I've always ended them on Saturdays for just that reason. I tried checking out some ending auctions, but had trouble sorting through the over-priced-unsold-buu-it-now items to get a sense of selling prices, except I saw one Billy Harper live CD end for $2.99, which scared me. That's funny. I find that as a buyer I miss auctions more often when they end on weekends because I'm out and about. eSnipe, dude.

Ian Carr's Nucleus - Labyrinth - (Vertigo, spaceship label) not a bad shop find for Texas, if you ask me...

Elton Dean's Ninesense - Happy Daze - (Ogun) Tippett, Miller, Moholo, Malfatti, Evans, Skidmore, Beckett, Charig... hard to go wrong with such a lineup.

Didn't Sumhep play in Salah Ragab's band?

I almost got that one once but passed, damn. Yep, it's a good one... real good!
