Ella Fitzgerald - Ella
Simon & Garfunkel - Bridge Over Troubled Water

Charlie Parker - The Definitive Charlie Parker Vol.6

All for the grand total of £2. *smile*

'One Night In Washington' is genius; Bird just improvises over some pretty average big band and he is phenomenal. Great record; one of my fave Parker lp's. Hard to find these days too. Bargain, BBB. Those others are pretty good too. Well done!!!

Thanks Jim, I was rather happy with my haul too. I was going to give the records a play, and if they're more my dad's kind of thing (rambling, tuneless and undynamic), I'll let him have them. Will certainly give 'One Night In Washington' a fair go though.
Car Boot this morning, and there wasn't a lot of records around, other than a few dealers charging really silly money. I did manage to pick up 3 from one of those stalls that sells all sorts of junk for very little money though. Sleeves are quite poor, but the records looked excellent, so for a pound for all three, I took a punt.

Managed at last to get myself a decent copy (and it looks really decent) of Tom Waits's Bone Machine, having been too broke to buy it when it came out. A fantastic album, and not easy to find on vinyl. Also a 12" with the My Bloody Valentine remix of Primal Scream's If They Move, Kill 'Em, which just gets madder and madder. Will give them a spin tomorrow.

Nice stuff.
A copy of Tangerine Dream 'Atem' arrived this morning, so looking forward to seeing how it sounds later.
So it is possible to get a decent record for a decent price from Oxfam occasionally. *shok*
Bought Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin for £1.99 today.
Obviously, it wasn't an original pressing, but a German mid-price reissue from the 80s, but both sleeve and record are in excellent condition, so a genuinely good buy.

Not the turquoise text version then? There are a few on eBay at the moment - at asking prices of £699, £750 & £1100!!
Great album though.
After my moderate success with the Led Zepp album at the charity shop, I decided to go round a few more today, and came back with nothing.
I did see Kylie Minogue 'I Should Be So Lucky' 7" in pretty poor condition for £4 though, so atleast I had a laugh.

Sweet Memories in Fratton yesterday.
It's a cracking shop with plenty of stock. The prices might be a little on the steep side but you can't argue with the condition of the records, not had a chance to listen to everything i bought but what i have sound like new.
I wasn't as flush as i needed to be to come home with everything i wanted but i did come home with
Boogie Down Productions - By All Means Necessary

[font="ProximaNova-Semibold, arial, verdana, sans-serif"]Tangerine Dream - Thief OST[/font]

Die Walkure (Karajan/Berliner Philharmonic)
Looking forward to playing this to my 5 year old daughter who has been marching around the house singing it since hearing it on a TV programme.

In the record shop, bought Thin Lizzy Live and Dangerous for £8. ACDC For Those About To Rock £8 and ELO for £2. Also a double album.
Then went to Royal Mail to collect my Mastodon reissue on green vinyl.
and my led light turned up too, for lighting the turntable up.
A good day all round.

Need help deciding wether to get a "all in one" or separate options.
