It’s an astonishing record.
Got 2 copies of this for 50p each.

If anyone wants one let me know…
Such a tune. Was it the 7” or the eighties kick flip 12” mix?
Found this for 20p in a shop in bristol and sold it for £250, apparently it was the limited 7” for their cassette only debut album which they only did 50 copies of - I had never heard of them but they are known as the New Order of Chile
Obviously then spaffed the whole lot on a copy of this:
I was obviously pretty made up at the time but given the Pictures record has now been reissued and La Ley is still unobtanium maybe I did the wrong thing? ::existentialselfdoubt::
was a great day when i found a nice clean copy of this beauty for a quid:
Misses Misty - Mellow Mellow Ride On
I hadn’t actually heard it before - i knew the Lowrell original - but lovers covers can be a bit hit and miss really. Couldn’t believe how good it was when i got it home and played it.
Brilliant record, and find! Get fuck all for a squid these days.
Found this in the wild for a couple of quid and sold for £200.

oh shit i think i would’ve died on the spot if i’d found that!
gotta say i do prefer this one though, way cheaper but so good… kinda sounds like Freeez but without the Arthur Baker production:
Was the 12. Have been back to the same Oxfam a few times since but haven’t ever found anything else in there.
Warner - Live and Learn 7", 45p from Music and Video Exchange.
Love the B-Side.

It was in the bargain bin on counter - couldn’t believe my luck as had just discovered it through a friend
This last year at a car boot … a couple of quid.

This about 3 years ago at a recycling shop, £1.75 NM condition
Michael Garrick LP is
Someone needs to reissue that one badly!
Did you keep it ?
No idea at all where it came from but it was certainly a bootsale find. It’s also extremely worn so might not be worth much now. It’s just a special bit of vinyl isn’t it?
Yes, it had been on my wants list for years and years so to actually find one for buttons was mind blowing. Would love a copy of Black Marigolds by him too but to strike Garrick gold twice is asking too much of the digging Gods!
Once went to a boot where my friend had a stall
On way in noticed the Girls Guide stall had a box of records with loads of Wendy / Walter Carlos - At time he knew a lot more about than me & was it into so I minded his stall whilst he hoovered it all up. Basically a full collection in mint condition for 50p each which he haggled down
this was my wildest carboot find, 30p under a pile of max bygraves and marching band records:

Did you realise at the time or just think worth buying?
didn’t realise it was quite so rare, but i flipped it over and saw the name delia derbyshire on the back so i was never going to put it back. it’s basically a sales demo for the EMS Synthi, really interesting but overall not something i’d play very often
