I was shifting through my local record store's usually shit
collection of indy punk and old 80's synth pop records
hoping to find something...anything that might pique my
interest.

I did

Wedged between a Thrush Hermit record and a Dead Kennedy's
record was

drumroll....

Gantz Graf
priced at $8 canadian!

I laughed to myself and picked it up, smiling all the way
home.

Good find! Gems like that always wow me, not only because of
the music itself but because of the circumstances it was
discovered in. It adds a strange sort of oblique emotional
happiness to the whole package.

*thumbs up* :)

Yeah totally. What the fuck was it doing there?
I'd like to watch a movie documenting that record's voyage
from sheffield to a shit little alt-rock music shop in
Atlantic Canada.

World music, haha.

Wicked find. Good music doesn't make it across the causeway
over to my island. I'm sure of it.

oh and i also went to a jazz/funk record shop in sydney, and
found ae's ep7.1 and ep7.2... there were no prices on them,
so i goes "how much for these" and he's like "give me $5 for
them both" (baring in mind i'd already clocked up 150 on
other records) i asked him what they were doing there, and
he's like "i dont know, but i do know theyve been here for a
couple of years, and im glad to be rid of them, i hate em"

well there ya go!
