There is an element of luck in some of my finds, granted. But a lot of it is purely down to the volume of searching I do. Record fairs, stores well off the beaten track, Gumtree/Craigslist ads, scouring eBay and Discogs daily for the best deals. You Made Me Realise being a perfect case in point - seen it loads over the years but always for £40 and up, which I think's extortionate. Spied it on eBay for cheap and nabbed it, and then days later found a copy of Tremolo going for a fiver (£30-odd on the 'cogs). Just wish I had someone to show it all off to - perhaps I should start a YouTube channel or something...

Got a bunch of B to B+ rated stuff today for cheap at a local shop I used to think was garbage (it's more a collectibles store than a record store). Wishing for more cheap A to A+ rated stuff... haha.
In no particular order:
Glenn Miller And His Orchestra - Glenn Miller - A Memorial 1944-1969
Glenn Miller And His Orchestra - The Marvelous Miller Medleys
Strauss* / The Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra*, Josef Krips - Strauss Waltzes
Kingston Trio - The Best Of The Kingston Trio
Willie Nelson - Stardust
Paul Simon - Hearts And Bones
Leo Kottke - 6- And 12-String Guitar
Bizet*, Herbert von Karajan - Carmen (Highlights)
Santana - Santana
Roy Orbison - The All-time Greatest Hits Of Roy Orbison
Art Garfunkel - Breakaway
Mstislav Rostropovich - Mstislav Rostropovich (box set)
Pablo Casals, Beethoven*, Schubert* - Pablo Casals In Concert (box set)
And then stuff a bit back from Amazon for the total rip off prices (kinda... $15-20 for new):
R.E.M. - Automatic For The People
The Rolling Stones - Exile On Main St.
Beck - Guero

I must listen to this. The cover art and the title are awesome... maybe you are a clown?
