From Mike at Rock-A-Round: I’m having a SALE!

That’s right, I’m about to buy another very large collection, so I need to clear out the old stock. Before I drop this all off on consignment or run it on eBay, I wanted to give you all one last chance to pick up anything you might have passed on. Below is the culmination of what remains after the last 4 emails of updates. It’s quite possibly the largest single listing I’ve ever posted and I will be offering the following price breaks for you:

Orders up to $50, take 10% off
Orders over $50, take 20% off

Sale is for this weekend only, then these records are gone!

Austin Film Festival Presents “Simmons on Vinyl”
7:30pm
$4 for general admission, FREE for AFF Members

With the help of his friends, Zeke goes on a search for a vinyl record that takes him on a wild chase all over town, running into mean high school punks, troubled bosses, kidnappings and even a very difficult dance off challenge – all in hopes that the record will nab the heart of his dream girl. Potts again creates a micro-budget comedy (following last year’s Stanton Family Grave Robbery) about going great lengths to impress a girl. He also proves how funny babies can be as comical devises.

Bunch of things to fill you in on today. The Dallas Record Fair is coming up this Sunday, May 23rd at the Best Western off LBJ. I will be there selling (and hopefully buying) records. Below is my entire inventory that I will be bringing to that show. If there’s anything you want, you must make payment arrangements or meet up with me before Friday! Whatever doesn’t sell at the record convention will promptly be dropped off on consignment when I return to Austin, as I have another big buy of fresh records to take care of when I get back. So as an added incentive for you to pick up some records this week, I’m having a SALE!

That’s right, now til Friday…

Take 10% off any purchases up to $50.
Take 20% off any purchases above $50. (more…)

• Itziar ”S/T” LP Itziar were a band named after Itziar Egileor, a Basque female singer with a beautiful, crystalline voice. The band’s only album displays sensitive songwriting, and is quite similar in style and atmosphere to other Basque folk/progressive masterpieces by Haizea and Itoiz.

• Kano Y Los Bulldogs ”S/T” LP Kano and his Bulldogs were one of the better known beat, garage & early psych bands in Uruguay back in the ’60s.

• Limonada ”Limo Nada” LP (Lion)
• Miguel Abuelo & Nada ”Miguel Abuelo Et Nada” LP (Abuelo) 1973 album by Miguel Abuelo & Nada while he was living in France is, no doubt, one of the best Argentinian rock albums ever recorded, and probably also one of the best out of South America.
• Piel De Pueblo ”Rock De Las Heridas” LP (Ciruela) Licensed LP release of this epochal heavy psychedelic rock album, first issued in 1972; Argentine rock pioneers Pajarito Zaguri and extraordinary guitarist Nacho Smilari (formerly in La Barra de Chocolate and Vox Dei) got together to form this short-lived heavy psych group.

• Little Ann ”Deep Shadows” LP (Timmion) Brilliant soul from the Detroit underground of the late 60s – a full set of work by vocalist Little Ann, issued here for the first time ever. You might recognize Ann’s name from her appearance on a few of the Ace/Kent Records issues of material by Detroit producer Dave Hamilton over the years, Comes from those classic collaborations with Hamilton – trapped on tape for many years, always contemplated as a possible Little Ann album.
