London Trip Vinyl Excursion

Useful trip to London today over at  the Notting Hill MVE, Got a fair deal with the exchanges i made,and i suppose it could have been better,but that,i guess, is due to the credit crunch. Notting Hill end of London was not as busy as i expected and managed to peruse all the vinyl available in relative comfort.

I did pop into all the main branches there,except for the classical shop,just to see what else might entice ,me.Primarily though it was the vinyl i was after..

Anyway this iis what i got in exchange -

Herbie  Mann - Memphis Underground (Atlantic LP)
Jon Lucien - Listen Love (Mercury LP)
The Ebony Rhythm Band - Soul Heart Transplant  : The Lamp Sessions (Now Again 2xLP)
The Usurpators - First Impressions (Seventies LP)

then some sleeveless albums at 50 pence each -

Billy Paul - 360 Degrees of Billy Paul (Pjil.Int LP)
Herbie Mann - Salute To The Flute (Fontana LP)
Gloria Lynne - I'm So In Love (DJM LP)

and some singles -

The Clarence Mack Express - Runaway Train (Electricraft 2004)
Warm Sounds - Birds And Bees (Deram 1967)
Three Dog Night - Eli's Coming (Stateside 1969)

After geting back to Brighton i popped into the Evening Star for a couple of pints and met my mate (The hat) who gave me a tenners worth of ganja to smoke over the festive period. Also my other mate,Ville (aka DJ Åbo) arrive with a mate and we chatted. he is going over to Belgium for Xmas from tomorrow and hence was in the pub to try some of these strange Belgian brews.
