More Black Stuff

[jazzy_dave]

This evening a hall test on drinks at the New Madeira Hotel (home to The Funky Fish Club) via UKFS. This morning gave GC some of Lorna's wonderful home cooked food, a chicken curry Thai style. We had coffee then i did a mystery shop at Maplins.

Crossed the road and looked in the Heart Foundation charity shop,and found the following in the 26p bin  (or six for a £1 -

Tom Jones - Help Yourself (Decca LP) -
Tom Jones - Live In Las Vegas (Decca LP)
Tom Jones - This Is (Decca LP)
Los Tres Paraguayos Vol. 1 (Maarble Arch LP)
Los Tres Paraguayos Vol. 2 (Marble Arch LP)
John Gregory Orch. - Gregory Condutcs (Philips LP)  - versions of "Hawaii Five O" and "Shaft"
Leslie Duncan - Sing Children Sing (CBS LP) - pleased to get this as i had it way back in 71.

The lady only charged me a quid for all of these  seven albums in fine condition - quite chuffed!!!  The John Gregory album has some fine tracks,esp his own "Spies and Dolls" under the monicker of Chaquito.




Then from my other new source the following -

Buddy Miles - Bicentennial Gathering of The Tribes (Casablanca LP)
Rick James - Throwin' Down (Gordy LP)
Joe Sample - Carmel (MCA LP)
Boyz II Men - Vibin' (Motown 12" single)
Whitehead Bros. - Forget I Was A G (Motown 12" single)
Nancy Wilson - How Glad I Am (Capitol 7")

all for four quid.

In the post this morning the reissue CD-
Ed Askew "Little Eyes" (De Stijl) - purchased on the strength of hearing it on WFMU.

Also the latest Robert Wyatt  CD "Comicopera" (Domino)

Right some paperwork to do before going to the hotel - briefing at 5pm.
