Sexy?

Obvious cheesecakery going on, but...what is she doing? It's like they took a totally candid pic by mistake and thought 'good enough.' Why is she looking at the floor? Why is she holding her arm out like that? Why are her fingers crossed? Is she having a stroke? I guess we'll never know...

In looking up Guy Melendy, I found out that it's a pseudonym for George Wright, whom I've posted an album from previously! (one of my favorite classic posts, actually) Hwhut?!

Being Bold

Love this cover. :) Simple drawing with a touch of color and it all fits so well.

Aww, man... Notice it's Norman Records on the cover, but Barry Records on the record itself and on the back cover...

Can't find much info on him other than in this post.

Somewhat interesting and more interesting!

Here's the somewhat...

[somewhat] Interesting custom disc.

If it's for your own use, you should be able to make a copy for yourself, Les Smith. Seems more like you're borrowing it, not owning it.

Anyway, here's the more interesting...

Ooo, a recording blank! It's the other side of the same custom. I'll have to see if Les Smith just puts their own sticker over this one.

Smooth as a...well, an unrecorded vinyl record! (sorry for the terrible quality)

Sold lots of records

I decided to put a bunch of my records (mostly the ones of lesser interest) in a garage sale yesterday. My rough estimate was around 800 of them. I figure I sold maybe 200 of them? No idea. Probably gonna do another one in September and try and sell more.

This doesn't mean anything for the blog, as I'll still post new stuff. As I said, it was stuff of lesser interest, and I still have a TON of albums I've taken pictures of but haven't posted yet. I appreciate having more room now, so I may not buy as indiscriminately now, but I don't plan to stop altogether, either. If I see something weird enough, I'll grab it. ;)

This was well after the initial rush. I also didn't know if I'd have time to get things ready properly, so they weren't mentioned in the newspaper ad we got or on the signs I put up around town. In that sense, I did pretty well, seeing as no one knew about them beforehand. :p
