SLUGGISHA'S THRIFT STORE - Volume # 12

More music from the piles of records I've collected over the years. None of this stuff will ever be on cd or even found on the web! Preachers,music machines,children's records,(including a song I would like to dedicate to my friend Food , "Hey Food!" ,by Cookie Monster & The Sesame Street Beetles) , high school marching bands,electronics,Redd Foxx singing! from 1957!, yodeling cowboys,christian music,Mister Rogers,("I'm Angry" ,one of his finest!),bar bands,instrumental combos,orchestras,and more! There's always something for everyone on these thrift store comps,and it would take you years of searching to find all these songs ,and compile them in this manner. I should know ,I'm doing it! Thanks ,and please comment!

SLUGGISHA'S THRIFT STORE - Volume # 11

Another trunk-load of records ,from thrift stores all across this great state(FL). I think this one has more people talking than any other tape in this series. There is the usual ,children's records,preachers,beatles covers,orchestras,exercise records,comedy&humor,and lengthy intros and outros from the "Flight Final" album ,a trippy piece of christian history.A really good one for days like these.

What can I say? Mel Henke ,synth/moog stuff,christians that are dumb,soundtracks from movies you'll never see,harpists,hippies ,men's fashions,comedians,children's records,Chubby Checkers' illegal brother , "Tubby Chess",washboards,Dracula,Us Airforce KP, Anthony Newley (with a rendition of "Pop Goes The Weasel" that I personally guarantee to be the best you'll ever hear in a life time!!) ,and tons more foolhardy picks from my massive collection of thrift store records. Man , I remember the good ol' days ,walk up to the thrift store counter ,with a huge pile of discarded vinyl ,and offering up 10 or 20 bucks ,and filling the trunk of my car with said goodies! Trust me ,those days are gone! Get your culture right here friends!!
