    Hey Dom, great idea to mix up the tag questions. Love those Craig Smith albums and a crazy story behind the artist… man that guy had it tough. Keen to check out the Ithaca and Agincourt albums. Cheers, Jack

    I was listening to Flat Duo Jets when I started this video, and Dexter Romweber fits the sad tag as he passed in 2024. Nice mash-up, I did a couple of Block-Head's garage questions to replace a couple of the Punk tag prompts I couldn't answer.

    Good idea to pick the cherries from this year’s vinyl tag mess. The Maitreya Kali LPs are my number one top wants, but I've never seen them as long as I've been collecting. Extremely rare. And speaking of rare, the Peter Howell and John Ferdinando albums are so good. I would love to have them, but I guess I have to keep on dreaming. Cheers!

      Ah but Jonas, perhaps you consider these reissues for the Ithaca / Agincourt in this case. Even they are tough to get and how the hell are you going to locate those 1/99 copy UK records? Agincourt is my favorite but the Ithaca album is incredible too.

    Dom this was a killer Best of Tag love the combination of tags you put together. Those Kink PYE 45s look minty. Kawaida Jazz record is definitely on my want list and that OG Don Cherry Brown Rice is monster record brother .

      @seekingathread  8 днів тому +1

      Hey Lovell, what up! Thanks my friend. The Kawaida is absolute top 10 jazz lp for me, probably even top 5. If I can upgrade to the original private press, I will earmark this Trip pressing for you which is pretty nice shape if I remember correctly.

    This Apocalypse is a big want of mine. Maybe 2025 will be good to me.
    The Craig Smith double lp is a favorite of mine. Loved the book too. I think that Mike Stax is currently working on a Gabor Szabo biography for some years now. Some snipets of it get published in Ugly Things a couple of years ago and it looks really promising.
    This Descendents was also probably my first online purchase, since it was so difficult to found one abroad irl bitd. Those shaddy SST repress make them almost impossible to valued so it was probably under 20 bucks.
    Great video!

      Hello, thanks for commenting and great to hear from you. Interesting Stax is doing that bio. Wouldn't have expected that. I don't listen to that Descendents very often but I couldn't bring myself to sell it based on it being one of my first purchases. Cheers!

    Kawaida is much stronger than Brown Rice, both 1975, went under the radar until 10 or so yrs ago. As did Vernal Equinox, when we were spinning Hassell's Editions vinyls ad nauseam in the early 80s I don't think we even knew it existed.

      @@seekingathread You are correct, so many reissues of it I must have got confused. I wish I'd bought a few copies back in the 80s, when both the US and UK versions were relatively cheap. Brown Rice I let go after a week or so, not ''good enough'' for my Jazz crate.
