    Dont forget all the HERB ALBERT records. Especially the one with the girl who has whipped cream all over her.

    What sould I say? The problem in Germany is, there were only few people buying disco records in the 70s. So you'll find tons of James Last records - and the suck, except for "Happy Summer Night".

    I'll leave the James Last appreciation to others and go back to the original topic! :icon_lol:

    Whatever box, crate, rack, pile of records you will always see, without fail Evelyn Champagne King - Shame. If ever I get someone's old collection there is always a copy of this...I think I have five copies :icon_rolleyes:

    Re: Which used records do you see all the time?

    yall forgot to mention "The Readers Diegest" sets. eeW!
    B.T.W/ if you want any of the fantastic records that are ready for the garbage bin, just look at your local "Half Price" books and record store.
    there was a time i would get good stuff there, now its all crap. been that way for 5 or 6 years now.

    The First Family featuring Vaughn Meader!

    It is a comedy album from the early 60's lampooning the Kennedy family, especially JFK in the White House.

    It is a classic and won an Grammy. And Vaughn Meader did a dead on(no pun inteneded) impression of JFK. It was very popular in its time and I listended to the record with my family when I was young. I own one today.

    Unfortunately, JFK's assasination killed his career. He just died a year or two ago and was an alcoholic.

    You can't miss the cover. It looks like the Kennedy family standing in front of the White House.

    two artists seem to pop up in almost every crate when ever I go to a 2nd hand store over here.
    Whitney Houston
    John Farnham
    Some time I do wonder if they pressed a copy for every person alive :icon_lol:

    and then there's this classic bargain bin item:

    After 20 years of record hunting, I still don't know who the guy is! :icon_lol:

    DAMN, i wish I had this album. He was a one -hit wonder over here. I heard he died a few years ago of cancer. His single was "Precious to me" from the early 80's and hit the top 40.

    Thanks, Now I at least know who he is. I'm not sure I'm gonna go get the album though. Power Pop isn't really my style :icon_lol:

    In São Paulo/Brazil I saw many/differents LPs of a 80's black singer called Junior. He doesn't sell here because he is unknown here.
