Record Store Day
Grooves - San Francisco
Send me a picture of your favorite record, record store or player for this year's Record Store Day slide show.
Wait a friggen-frickin' minute... That doo-wop tune is Sun Ra? I never knew he did that kinda stuff! How far back does he go? Why am I so confused? And, who's the DJ on this aircheck? What station was it? I am playing it & replaying it. I am flabbergasted. Way Too Coo...
Uhmmmm more like R&B than doo-wop.. still what a way to go to the man I saw in Amsterdam, 1970, with his freak music...but..didnt they all start at the roots somewhere?

True Vine (Baltimore) and Weirdo Records (Cambridge) prove that quality is more important than quantity.

ReplyDeleteTimmy, the DJ is Big Buddy Lowe from WILD in Boston. You should check out the 3 CD/LP set of early Sun Ra blasters on Norton Records.
