I have a shit ton of 7"s. This is simply an excuse to get off my lazy 21st Century ass and make them more easily listened to as 1's & 0's. I then share. It's a symbiotic relationship. I may even toss in an occasional lp or something. If it's your OOP record and you don't want it posted, Just let me know. I'll gladly take it down. I'm easy.

The Stuff of Legends
Still have a baker's dozen of 12" records that I still need to digitize from the last couple of months (and a bunch more shit currently in the mail to be delivered in the next week). I'm kind of slow to get on that shit. After that is an accounting of Julie London Lps and more singles starting at "Mo".
Such is part of my free time.
But first the very definition of legendary
To Find Out (1967)
First off, let's get this out of the way. This is a repro boot copy I picked up a number of years ago just to be clear. I've never had the kind of money to throw around for one of the maybe dozen copies that are known to exist. But I did have a few bucks to throw thing at this on eBay.
So here we are.
Aquarium Drunkard can fill you in on the legend and why Jack White is alleged to drop a couple of grand on a copy. Another thing a couple of sites mentioned is that the band is also alleged to have to change its name every time they played out so people would not know who it was and show up.
Raw, Primitive and plaintive.
Just like I like it.
Thoughts and Visions (1968)
The Liberty Bell hailed from Corpus Christi, TX and made a decent garage noise with some psychedelic overtones. This is their penultimate single.
Like a lot of local records of the time the money shot is the flip "Look For Tomorrow" which is a lot more lysergicly derived than the promoted song despite the promising title.
Grab a sugar cube and put on repeat and dive into the fuzz..
