Thanks Topper for the video. Congrats on finding the Miles Davis and that album by The Band. I have never heard that album in it's entirety either but I bet it's a great one! I also have some used records by the Ventures. I enjoy their music too. I also hope that 2021 levels out after getting off to a rough start! Best wishes.

Happy new year Topper! Good to see you again. So jealous you can go out crate digging, we're still in absolute lockdown here in the UK and I've had to resort to the evils of Amazon!! I absolutely adore Music from Big Pink, it's my favourite Band album. What a treat for you never hearing that one before. That's a good Be Bop Deluxe album, very Ziggy Bowieish in feel. That Lou Donaldson album is interesting, I've never seen an audition copy before.Were those like promos that would be sent to radio stations?. Nina Simone is magnificent. I love the absurd pseudonyms for guest artists they used to use on 60s and 70s albums, for contractual reasons, hilarious. I love your eclectic tastes. Great video, take care.

For some reason I just thought of the band, Passport. Sort of a Euro competitor to Weather Report. I think people like Gil Scott Heron, Leon Thomas, and Quincy Jones were on the Mainstream label. I do know that the original The Tenth Victim soundtrack (Classic) was on Mainstream. Best version was a later double album with ALL the music...

Haha, love your dad's adage, "If you live long enough, you get old." Ain't that the bloody truth! Beautiful poster you received. When I was a teen, I had a bunch of posters, some of them black light posters, but they're all gone. Gosh, imagine had I saved them? One I think was fairly common, wild black light poster I think of a mushroom cloud on the horizon or something, but the caption was "What if they gave a war and nobody came?" You remember that one? I need to find that Betty Davis album, so many have shown it and raved about it. I know what you mean that there are amazing albums others know well but I haven't known about, and when I "discover" them, it's really amazing. I'm thinking, where the hell have I been? LOL And BTW, your videos are never boring. Cheers!
