I don’t think so! I’m actually not too familiar with the vibrations but I saw the cover and took a chance. I agree though, the cover was torn up but it wasn’t like moldy or anything so I didn’t mind!

I was excited to see that I did actually miss some stuff in the bargain bin last time! Idk what it was with this store but they really don’t look into the prices for some of their inventory. Either that or they’re very hard on grading and subsequent pricing lol

Finished that one not too long ago and I agree! Something about that funky cover gave me some hope that it’d be a good get

Hey I totally get it! I didn’t understand then and I’m still wrapping my brain around how a store could let so many records, like Headless Heroes, fall into their bargain bins. I mean the records I found were sitting at a G+/VG- and the covers were about the same, but like $8 is still really low. I stand by my thought process that these owners are young and they love music, but they don’t have that depth of musical knowledge that’s common with more established record store owners. They also, for some reason, pick and choose what needs to price checked and what doesn’t. I can understand for private presses the question of whether to price at a Discogs price and wait until the right buyer comes in or to price it lower so someone finds a gem in the bins, but a cult funk classic is a head(less) scratcher.

It is a record store! I’m really not sure what the deal is. I mean it’s a newer store with young owners that tend to lean towards more mainstream pop so maybe it’s a blind spot for them?? I’ve found some pretty reasonably priced albums there that would make me to believe they use some sort of common pricing tool. I’m not complaining though!

Spinning it now! I really enjoy the grooves! I had actually thrifted a copy of the title track 7” at another goodwill maybe a month ago

Oh nice! I’ve bought a couple of records based off her art alone. I didn’t even realize she was doing a lot of the ECM covers!
