My usual collection of promo CDs, girl group compilations, things I never wanted to pay full price for, experimental music that I know nothing about but which sounded interesting from the instrumental lineup, why-not-it's-only-$5 and other random crap. Bliss.

Walked in with something like $270 in cash--walked out with $6, 35 CDs and that post-orgasmic dopey smile on my face. Then I went uptown and had chocolate fondue.

Fuuny, I'm listening to The Ride right now.
Always have been a fan of Los Lobos.

Looks like you've got some good albums. At least interesting!

Solid haul for only being the an hour.

this is pretty good

I've got the unedited version of this recording - a limited release called "222".

His bit about going to the steakhouse is one of the funniest fuckin' things I've ever heard.

Lump, you scored!!!!

Would love to hear what you think of Max Richters "The Blue Notebooks".

What's on this?

An interesting mix of stuff I would like to hear. Very eclectic.

What does OOIOO sound like?

That was the first thing I listened to when I got home. (Of course, it was 11pm, so I wasn't about to put on Orthrelm.) On one listen, it will certainly help make up for Harold Budd retiring.

I've wanted to pick this up for a while, but that clip you posted a few days back made me specifically hope to find it at the Record Fair.

right on. such a great find.

Looks like this CD was a freebie that came with a special issue of Weird N.J. magazine. Here's the artists listed (all local bands, of course):

Hoop
Ricky Bustamante
Dorothy L. Williams
Uncle Floyd (!)
Dan Paterno
The Accelerators
Jail Balloon
Ken J. Galipeau
The Multi-Purpose Solution
Chris T. & Chris Butler
The High School Sweethearts
Headwound

I have no idea! It's a Boredoms offshoot and it sounded interesting from some description I read somewhere (thought it was here but I can't find the thread).

OOIOO is an all girl Boredoms spinoff led by Yoshimi

Nice pickup. I just heard this a few weeks ago and was blown away by it on first listen. Ish seemed to like it as well.

Lumpy shot and scored! As did Dov. Nice haul, laddies!

I never made it. Stupid me.
