That is fucking awesome. I love sifting through records but where I live it takes about 20mins & done. If only I had known about that place when I used to visit there I'd gobble some up too. Course I wasnt into vinyl back then.

It was actually out in Penn Yann or Bloomfield or something stupid. It took like an hour/hour and half to get out there. (another reason people didn't go with me.)

Haha, I used to go to this barn out in the middle of nowhere when I lived in Rochester and I bought sooooo many records from them. I don't think many people actually bought records from them, because it was mostly a barn full of like...barn stuff and house stuff, almost like a big flea market or garage sale.

Anyway.

They'd get records when they bought big lots of stuff, and I'd go out there and sift through vinyl for like...6 hours on a Saturday or whatever. I almost always went alone, otherwise people would get bored/too allergy-ed out and I'd have to leave before I was done.

They charged $.50 per record or 3 for $1. I got BS- S/t, SBS, and NSD there, plus they always had really weird 12" singles and a lot of other sweet rock stuff. I got Technotronic - Pump Up the Jams, Salt 'n' Pepa - Push It, House of Pain - Jump around 7," all kinds of stupid stuff, but a bunch of other neat stuff too. I can't remember everything, but I'm sure I picked up so Nilsson, some Neil Young. You know, classic stuff.

That is so awesome! I would spend so much time there!

I found a nice copy of Live Evil at a thrift shop a few months ago for $.50

I was pretty happy. I need more Black Sabbath.

nice! I don't have Live Evil, but I found a NEMS copy of Live At Last a while back at the thrift shop. Mine was $1.00 or something though :?

 

Everyone needs most Black Sabbath. My goal is to have all US first presses of the first 8 albums. Getting there.

I'm not sure exactly where it is. This looks like it might be it? http://rochester.craigslist.org/gms/4596600899.html

 

I used to just find it on craigslist and then google map it whenever I'd go. It's every weekend pretty much.

 

If it is the joint, looks like they may not have quite as many records anymore.

 

It looks familiar though.
