does anyone else hunt there local thrift shops/ charity
shops/ record stores for crappy old vinyl to sample? please
if u do post the funniest/twisted/stupid records you've
managed to 'rediscover'

my recent finds include 'amongst others'
mr men stories vol. 1+2
st.marks primary school hymns (sounds twisted slowed down :]
)
childrens nursery rhymes (sang by some old dude with an
acustic and a beard, again, twisted)
space - sound effects by the bbc radiophonic department
(woot!!!!)

yeah, i love that stuff

one of my favorites is a record i have called 'teach your
bird to talk'

its just a female voice repeating words over and over again
alternating right and left channels. supposedly you just
put it on and leave your bird to listen to it.

My buddy also has a self hypnosis record that is supposed to
help your breasts get larger. its pretty hillarious.

haha thats quality, the best i've heard is a record of
ambient music to help get babies to sleep, it was recorded
in the late 60's early 70's and it's wicked! my mate jon
dropped it at a party at 5 in the morning for all the people
coming down

cool.

other stuff i love is old news radio on vinyl. you get a
lot of samples of famous speaches and stuff.

i also have a few steve martin live records from the 70's
one of which i have sampled in dozens of my tracks for
audience noises and for wierd steve martin soundeffects.

in the seattle area, there is a chain of used book stores
called 'half price books.' they always have lots of great
obscure vinyl for really cheap and if you return it within
30 days, you can get full in-store credit.
