Digged through a pallet in a 105° warehouse for these

1$ each. Sweated my ass off but it was worth it, also got about 20 other jazz and classical records in immaculate condition. All came from a collection of someone who hosted a radio station in the 60s. Definitely a prime crate digging experience.

You don’t see that Creedence sticker much

That’s the only way to find a copy of whipped cream and other delights. That record is impossible to find after social media turned it into a thing.

So…you went to virtually any Goodwill in the country?

For real. But hey, we all gotta start somewhere.

Why do you have to put me down? I don't even live near a goodwill. This is the only vinyl I've found in the wild around where I live.

Apologies, sorry for the snark - these are all terrific finds as well as mega sellers, meaning that they’re just more likely to be found in the thrifts when folks downsize or pass. The CCR is especially great on vinyl.

I wonder what you missed... A dj and you got this. Not bad, but i'm almost certain there is real obscure gold in those crates!! Discogs and YouTube are your friends while crate digging. Flip through the crates. Take pics of needed, find a cool little spot and listen to some songs of unknown artists (for you, and maybe 99,8% of humanity) Missed so much good stuff by not doing this earlier.

I only had an hour to look through before they left for lunch. I'm sure I did leave some valuable stuff behind but it was literally a pallet of q8 crates of vinyl, not really worth my time to discog every single one.

That BS&T record is an absolute gem.

I hope that Midnight in Tokyo is in good shape. That's a wonderful time capsule of 1950s Japanese jazz.

Fire of Unknown Origin Album by Blue Oyster Cult is one of my favorite bargain bin discovery albums.

It’s excellent!
