Epic Delights: Essential Finds

Next List!
Musical Delights this time!



The O'Jays in Philadelphia

(the above is the lead-off song from this album)

Jonathan Richman : Not to be Loved, So Much as to Love
(awwww.... what a romantic...)

Patsy Cline

Prince and the Revolution: PURPLE RAIN !!!
I already have this on vinyl, of course, but got it for cheap on CD too. The record comes with the epic poster at top of pic below



Some more Harry Belafonte

[ 1) Read the blurbs on that magazine cover
2) Doesn't Harry Belafonte look like Devon there? ]
On record and CD- the CDs are, embarrassing enough, the Reader's Digest Edition. So some grandparent died, left these to their unwitting offspring, who unloaded them on the GoodWill, much to the GoodLuck of myself.

Ghostface Killah: Fishscale
(which I already owned- bought even, which adds insult to the injury of losing it: so I rebought it, rebooted it)

Jackie Wilson

A vinyl compliation called Super Girls! Three slabs of vinyl with all sorts of girl bands on them... epically delightful!


(Notice that there are 3 of Triplicate Girl in this SuperGirl comeek...)

More Brook Benton

Teddy Pendergrass (Rest In Power: Jan 14 2010)
He is ALSO Philadelphia-based like The O'Jays, although I got this in Oregon. So maybe Philly is not the only place to get that hott Phillee Sound...
