Wow... then I'm going to dig in your house homie :D hehehe... I saw you are in Jersey... nice... hopefully the idea of a reunion evolve and then we can meet to work together in the near future

i have 3 collections containing 5000, garbage dollar records that some maniac dropped off at my door, I think he was a weirdo or somethinng, there was like 200 "be my baby" records, all different versions, there is records in that collection from 1930s and 40s and weird metal records that are super heavy. they werent even 78s, people like to diss garbage records but digging those records was one of the coolest expereinces of my life, the collection I am rocking now is all hand picked 300 records, mostly rock, blues and soul.

I usually grab shit i never heard of and hope to find some cool ass shit on em, but this time i just grabbed stuff i wanted to listen to. Some Hubert laws (one of the first records i ever bought) some roy ayers and issac hayes. And a cool ass Donald Byrd album. Slowly but surely im going to catch up to you 300 records guys. Got alot of crap tho, that ill probably give away to the next man.

that's some interesting stuff. the metal ones could be acetate pressings or masters. the heavy ones could be those super-thick "decca" records from back in the day. i don't have a lot of them, but my early-period john lee hooker and the who stuff is on really thick, super heavy vinyl.

Locotes, I'd be down to link up!! I'm in South Jersey. I'm a hop, skip, and jump from Philly in good traffic. Heard the Vinnie Paz remixes. I was really feeling the second beat!! Dig your style and sound!!
