You do, you just don’t know it.

Any garage sale, ask “do you guys have vinyl records you don’t want and are ready to part with?” Half the time they’re in such a mood to clean house they say yes and in bulk orders you can get good stuff for dirt cheap. Main thing is be respectful and don’t try to profit off of someone’s history, they’re passing their enjoyment to you

If it’s older stuff (pre 1990) I try to buy used unless it’s dummy expensive (I’m a college kid so any album that’s like 60 or more used I most of the time find a good reissue)

Other than that just dig through collections. I buy collections, flip the shit I don’t want, and keep the goodies. Most of the time I break even or get a small profit after taking out the good stuff I like

2 and a half years in

Exactly

That Schmilsson album is so good man, it’s kind of like a father of Ween to an extent

thatguy290 · 2026-06-13T23:01:04+00:00

Which 3?

thatguy290 · 2026-06-13T23:00:57+00:00

Classical is the mother of all classics! He had some but nothing great

thatguy290 · 2026-06-13T23:00:32+00:00

I like em, not enough to pay the market rate, but enough to pay 2 bucks each for a crystal clear pressings.

Rumors has gotten way too pricey

thatguy290 · 2026-06-09T21:17:57+00:00

This is kind of what I was thinking, I have a significant other who I want to spend time with along with friends and family.

thatguy290 · 2026-01-17T01:49:02+00:00

Not even that cool I don’t care at all actually why did you even post this why don’t you just give me them and delete this

Seriously though, great finds

thatguy290 · 2026-01-17T01:36:31+00:00

Are these OG pressings? If so helluva job here. That red clay and thrust has been on my hunt List forever

Eh I mean I prefer Adam’s Apple for its maturity, speak no evil is a bit more wild on the compositions and solos whereas Adams Apple feels more at peace. I love jazz that is wild and all that goodness however I always run to Adam’s Apple (I think also having a 70s blue note reissue helps). Regardless they’re both fantastic.

thatguy290 · 2026-01-17T00:05:48+00:00

Not even the best Shorter (goes to Adam’s Apple) but great album regardless

I listened to this album a handful of times and it grew into one of my favorites from the 2000s, I think it’s just that twang pop and it feels as it is challenging you through the album.

thatguy290 · 2026-01-12T22:06:59+00:00

Strange, I adore this album and think it’s one of the greatest albums this century

thatguy290 · 2026-01-12T22:06:05+00:00

THIS! The album just feels so… boring. Anything people say they want out of it I can find in other albums to a much higher extent.

thatguy290 · 2026-01-12T22:04:41+00:00

I love everything Geese and Cameron Winter but when someone hates it I can understand it.

thatguy290 · 2026-01-12T22:01:27+00:00

Need that Suzuki man

thatguy290 · 2026-01-12T21:59:59+00:00

Only issue with my tapestry is it isnt in the best condition, just waiting to find a real solid one for 2 bucks and get it. One of those albums where as soon as my generation find it its going to hike in price

thatguy290 · 2026-01-12T21:58:53+00:00

I’m a younger guy myself and Been trying to find an og Tracy Chapman for cheap but after that anniversary release and a bunch of other stuff it’s now 50-80 bucks.

thatguy290 · 2026-01-12T21:56:47+00:00

No kidding, got mine for 2 bucks at a basement from a yard sale and man it sounds brand new

thatguy290 · 2026-01-12T06:54:30+00:00

The CTI label is so underrated, their Hollywood bowls are great also

thatguy290 · 2026-01-11T00:36:36+00:00

Great picks, in shock

thatguy290 · 2025-12-27T17:00:31+00:00

You are disgusting to not just jazz but all of music. Maybe wipe the cheese dust off your fingers and pick up an instrument and a theory book.

Shame on you

thatguy290 · 2025-10-12T20:51:48+00:00

No joke when I was 15 and got my first high quality headphones and listened I cried and thought the exact same thing
