Hey Everyone - need your help with deciding which transport case to get. I will be flying internationally and need it to hold approx. 50 LPs. So, which case would you feel comfortable checking into baggage? I already have a 'carry on' soft case, but am now interested in a hard case.  

Thanks.

this user on discogs seems to have a few of the rinx records releases... try getting in contact with them

Thanks so much; just shot him a message. 

Hello...I would LOVE some info on this particular Rinx Record. I'm an avid record collector and haven't seen this one before. I emailed the label and they provided the below info... any other info would be greatly appreciated. Collectible? valuable? Pictures below:

It is record #240 from the label. 

Side 240-A  ST. LOUIS BLUES   (Handy)   92 Blues  Organist: Fred Bergin  (ASCAP)

Side 240-B  BASIN STREET BLUES n(Williams)   92 Blues     Organist:  Lee White   (ASCAP)      (If the label that you have reads  Fred Bergin  Organist it is a printing error)

The two songs were recorded 1955,  only 3 copies left.  

Fred Bergin was the founder of Rinx Records which he started in 1950 out of Denver Colorado.

During the 1950’s & 60’s he hired various organists to record for him.  Lee White is a lady organist.

I go to Mexicali all the time, but I haven't looked into record stores in that area.

There has to be SOME, but I have no idea.

I have tons of family in Mexicali. (:

I'd have to ask my dad (he lived there most of his early childhood). He loves vinyl.

If you find out from your dad of any record stores in Mexicali and post it here, that would be awesome....thanks man.

Thanks @wildflange.

Hello,

I'm going to be going to Mexicali, Mexico in a few weeks and wanted to check out some record stores. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Anything around Mexicali or Baja California works...thanks!

Sweet thanks. I'll check those out.

I have a Eddie Bo comp called the Hook & Sling. The Song "Eddie's Rubber Band" rules. I like the whole thing though.

That Wild Magnolias song is great. Hadn't heard of them before.

Not sure if you download stuff but there's a Goldmine torrent that has 67 northern soul cd comps. It's about 4 gigs worth of stuff. Have been slowly working my way through that the last year and have found some cool stuff.

I like pretty much every thing and have been going through Gabor Szabo's discography as well and found this song that sounds like an instrumental version of Massive Attack from 1969. Not sure if you're into that but it's pretty cool.

 

Such a fresh track. Massive Attack is great. 

Cool, thanks man. I'm not planning on selling it; this one is staying in the collection. Just curious of the value. 

Thanks for all the info guys.

I mainly bought the record because of the handwritten white label; plus I got it for a steal...I'm a huge funk/soul/music fan in general. I've worked at a few labels' marketing/a&r departments; so I have a vast appreciation for music from many sides. Recently I've mostly been listening to the Now Again Records catalog, which is run by the former GM of Stones Throw Records; if you're familiar with them. Now Again has been reissuing amazing funk/soul/jazz/world music on LP for many years. They have compilations of super rare 45s that are outstanding as well, def check those out. Other than that, mostly old stuff like Breakwater, Port Authority, JBs, Lou Donaldson, Gene Harris, etc...Any idea on the value? Curious.

Thanks for song link @74R; it's kind of a hard track to find online. 

Here is a picture of the record:

It's not that weak; it kind of has a fresh groove on it. The only 7'' of this track on discogs was marked as UA-XW460-W. Mine doesn't say Test Press anywhere. 

Hello,

I just got a 7'' of Ike Turner's "Father Alone" and it has a white label with the title and artist handwritten. I checked Discogs and they do not have anything matching. Stamped as a United Artists Records UA-13483-E. It also has K-8323 etched as well. I believe like the single, it has a stereo side and a mono side. I cannot find anything on this record. Does anyone have any info on it? Is it a bootleg? 

Thanks,

D
