That's awesome @havershaw. That Sweet Soul record looks like a good one.

[milliondollars]

really nice haul @havershaw... love the Hot Ice in particular. definitely need more De Wolfe in my collection...

[milliondollars]

really enjoy this record from one of UK's grandmasters. the record is a blast from beginning to end. there is a nice little describtion of this album in the Unusual Sounds book.

the Night Bird record is like Mansfield's answer to the unasked Lipstick question by Puccio Roelens. very similar style, probably from the same era. lush, rich, fancy, recommended!

That‘s a cool one @Million! And I get the Roelens comparison, unfortunately those are really hard to find.

[milliondollars]

Night Bird is classy and it is a honourable contender to the nasty library records with boobs on cover... :)

[milliondollars]

first time in months i was able to go through some stuff. found a box in the cellar with US library stuff that i have acquired some time ago. really obscure stuff in there besides some unlistenable crap, haha!

this one is quite interesting. not often seen the word psychedelic in library. never noticed that Media Music '68 cover anywhere else either. this is one of those Capitol custom pressings, whatever the purpose of these was. anyway, this record is quite wild. have listed it on discogs now...

That title is awesome.

[havershaw]

This is the only Media Music ‘68 I have:

[texasvinyl]

Thanks for listing it. I wish they hadn't done so many 1 minute tracks and they always seem to be the records with great music on them. Never seen the 68 cover either!

[havershaw]

This week’s library arrivals. LITA finally shipped all my Be With reissues, haha. Only ordered them in Jan.

[inksb]

Can't wait to hear the comparison's of Feelings.

[milliondollars]

not bad @havershaw! love those KPM's. your library collection is growing like mushrooms after rain!

[milliondollars]

gave this a spin this morning. one of the consistent yellow sleeves on Amphonic. classy pornish UK lounge. full album on youtube. recommended!

Love that Special Assignment record. Still haven’t picked that one up.

This one arrived today and I’m really loving it.

really dig that Prototype record @haver!

[milliondollars]

listening to this wordless scat record from germany makes one thing for sure: brighten up your day!

Frank Pleyer (or here as Joe Fender, lol) did quite some stuff for german library labels. this is his best record in my opinion. every track is solid...

I need special assignment!! I bought it twice but never got either time, it's cursed ;)

[havershaw]

Some super random De Wolfe (and an I Marc 4 I didn’t have that I finally found cheap).
A bunch of these are total blind buys - I’ve had pretty good luck blind-buying De Wolfes that have few samples online, so I’m scooping up anything that’s affordable and has composers I’m familiar with. So far, I haven’t been too disappointed.

love De Wolfe on 10". i have quite some of them but these two are unknown to me @havershaw!

[milliondollars]

it feels like i did not listen to this for a long time. such a calm and beautiful record. one of the last 'old Southern Library' records...

this is really addictive! library related album from the UK by Rory More (check my discogs review). such a cure during these strange days...a unrecognized pearl!

I really dig that, thanks for posting it @million. I think I'll be picking it up shortly.

[havershaw]

Wow, thanks for posting that indeed. I definitely need to pick that up (along with his previous record).

[havershaw]

More De Wolfe arrivals in the last week or two.
Not sure how this Tilsley Orchestral seems so underappreciated. It’s great!

These were a bit more blind buys (and some came in a lot of De Wolfe), so hopefully there’s some good stuff in here:

Quite the haul, Havershaw!
Good that you have the weekend ahead to do some listening.
