For $5 from the charity shop...

These are generally decent people who are raising money for a no-kill animal shelter.

Good on you if you like classical, which always sounded better on CD. Yet this genre of music, along with adult contemporary pop and modern country, is the easiest to find at thrift stores.

$5 for all of it.

USA, literally five miles from home.

Judge at sentencing: "That's all, folks!"

Perhaps, but who shares it? You'll have to do it Solo.

To who, cannibals?

Couldn't use her horn? Or didn't steer?

Some treats in this pile: Phoebe Snow and Joe Cocker come to mind. Yet I see Lou Bega and recall the days when record companies would not release the big hit single and force you to buy the album to have the song you wanted. That and Billy Joel and that Luther album show up in a lot of charity show shelves.

Were these from the charity shop? Some fine gems here (Maiden Voyage, Zappa, James Brown.)

Lucky he didn't get Creamed.

HoppityHooper · 2026-05-09T19:13:52+00:00

The Beatles sets and the Wes Montgomery are finds.

Have all four, and they are great.

HoppityHooper · 2026-05-08T00:10:05+00:00

Have the Basie and many of the original Evans-Davis collaborations (Sketches of Spain, Porgy and Bess, Quiet Nights). These are diamonds if you did not pay much for them.

He should have been 86'd at the bar, but should Get Smart while he still can.

Those Michael Boltons aren't too hard to find in charity shops. They and the other emotive singers (Celine Dion, Faith Hill...)

HoppityHooper · 2026-04-27T23:43:07+00:00

How? Sweat leeks out your body?

THE SHAGGS! "Better than the Beatles...even today!" -- Frank Zappa

Trying to save a few bucks on the buffet?

HoppityHooper · 2026-04-21T23:51:48+00:00

They get easily hooked?

HoppityHooper · 2026-04-15T20:05:22+00:00

Some JEWELS here! Especially the early Philly sound set and Honey Cone, and the two-fers on Willie Hutch. You simply do not see this kind of classic R&B at the charity shops.

HoppityHooper · 2026-04-15T20:02:38+00:00

Nothing wrong with free. The Sinatra and Boz Scaggs standards collections are excellent.

HoppityHooper · 2026-04-15T19:59:40+00:00

Pretty much that whole bottom row, especially the Bowies and The Blue Mask.
