That's a great beginning. Congrats.

Albeit starting off small, this next purchase comes in directly after Mr helped identify a track for me. And, since I don't yet have a turntable, I was fortunate enough to find this Omni on CD. Thanks again for your help Mr.

Happy to be of help! I hope you have a CD player

I do indeed.

There's a guy who sells records and CDs for a standard 2 SGD each. I think he does house clearances and things like that. They're mostly 60s and 70s local records - Singapore had a lot of record labels for a such small place. I've never seen any library until today so it was a nice surprise to see a Bruton, BRG23 World of Sport. I'm an admirer of Brian Bennett's work so I was delighted to find my first record with his compositions, and my first Bruton.

Just found 15 Selected Sound for 10€ in paris flea market. So happy ! No rarity, a lot of the "Cuts & Media Music" records, but always nice.

always great to find some Selected Sound. no matter which ones you get, they look like gold bars every time...

le_tomval · August 13, 2018, 07:20:43 PM

Yes I like this label... This is one of my favorite to dig, in France it's easy to find them! My local record shop will have 150+ library records of KPM, Selected Sound, Tele Music, Patchwork very soon...

Saw a couple of DW's in a second hand shop in Totnes, Devon today. One of the Sights and Sounds and A Touch of Class.

Just found all the records of Coppelia Editions & Productions for 15€ in a french garage sale! So happy, a nice 80s label...

Great find! I love those records. I paid more than €15 just in shipping to get them. Were there any more than these nine?

le_tomval · September 05, 2018, 12:04:32 PM

No, not more... But N°5 is missing... Need to find it now !

Just got the 400 78's (and about 30 Southern 45's) from the Dr Jazz eBay sale.

Will start to transfer them over the weekend!

Good luck. Stock up on coffee & biscuits, lad. Keep your energy up.

Recently, during one of my many antique shopping jaunts, I found an odd LP for this US label called "Customusic". It's a sample record for this rather Seeburg-esque label, and I say that as the label offered arrangements of popular songs to play in businesses and industrial plants. Now, if I had the proper technology for this such of thing, I'd make a rip of it so you all could hear.
