Yea.
But honestly if I've 250 albums total I'd be surprised, more likely less.
Haven't touched 'em in years in spite of owning a beautiful linear tracking Technics turntable my bride bought me for Xmas in the late 70s, early 80s.
Those albums moved with us over 4 states in the past 25 years, I've never opened the mover's boxes from the first move, either.
Most are badly worn though, could probably see through 'em if ya held them up to light.
The cover art is probably their real value these days, if any value a'tall.
"I have a really large vinyl collection butam most interested in Detroit rock live bootlegs such as MC5, Stooges, Seger, etc."
Interesting.
Are you a Michigander familiar with the Detroit R&R scene in the 60s, 70s & 80s?
Reason I ask is because I acquired a CD called, Hideout -- Friday At The Boss Detroit Garage 1964-67 which features nothing *but* the early Detroit rockers.
Plus I've a 4 disc boxed set featuring material in a similar vein called, Left of the Dial - Dispatches From The 80s Underground.
HA!!
Man are there some outrageous cuts on those babies.
The tight rears 'round here would have an anurysm -- I swear -- if they ever heard some of the cuts.
Naturally I *cherry-picked* the best for EMA, *naturally* :o)
"I have some pretty awesome Seger bootlegs, we should chat about that."
Great, let's do it.
Very few realize how long Seger's been around.
In fact he's actually still working, doing a *concert* in Milwaukee (within the next week or so).
I saw a picture of him & gone is the floppy dark brown hair, beard and svelte waistline of a hungry, rebellious kid.
A lot more than a mere "Touch of Gray".
Of course.
...I should talk. {g}
Great disc. The Pleaser Seekers cuts (also re-issued on 45) are my favorite (and an influential garage punk/grunge band of the mid-1980s covered 'What A Way To Die', their cover later re-issued by SubPop in the 1990s). Suzi Quatro was in the Pleasure Seekers (although I think someone else wrote their songs). I think one of those other cuts is an early Bob Seger song.
I'm camping out tonight in order to buy tickets for my dad and I to see Seger in Boston! WOOOO!!
Here's the update on the Scott Richardson stuff: I listened to the CD and it's GREAT! But there is one problem... the CD didn't burn right! So what I'm doing is getting together with a trading buddy in Finland who is going to send me a copy of BOTH Scott Richardson albums (both of which are OOP and I feel OK sending you).
Instead of your compilations, why don't we talk about some vinyl? I'll offer up both Scott Richardson disks & 3 Seger bootlegs:
-May 14th 1974 Orphanage Club, San Francisco, CA (KSAN radio broadcast)
-July 8th 1974 @ Ebbet's Field, Denver CO - Get Out Of Denver
I also have a double disk from Boston but I don't have the details handy.
What I'm interested in are other bootlegs that I don't have, or rare / OOP vinyl in good condition. Let me know what ya think!!!
