Wax Treasure (Vinyl)

[68degreesorless]

The YT sounded fine to my ears. Excited to hear the vinyl. Like most of the great Peruvian records I found, very few original pressings (discogs median >$300usd). Glad it’s been reissued. And surprised it’s not available on streaming platforms.

found a nice 1970 issue of this

[GraemeE]

@endo that is an excellent score

I have to say, that thread played a part in it, too; it trains the ear. I don't know if listening to this record a few years ago would have been as enjoyable for me as it is now. Almost certainly not.

Ive learned plenty about great German albums from the late 60s and 70s from this thread - especially since I already considered myself a kraut-rock aficionado (typical cocky American i know....)

[Mizmazzle]

@GraemeE whoa!!! That’s freaking amazing! I’m still patiently waiting for my MFSL release of MM. a Verlaine personal copy would be rather badass as well.

Cooking tacos and listening to LC. This is probably my favorite record of his. Such an oddball album for him.

Ai generated?

[GraemeE]

@68degreesorless well technically yes....

I used my phone photo editor to try and blur out a certain word in one of the song titles that I didn't feel comfortable posting

And I did a pretty shitty job of it at that but at least its not legible

[68degreesorless]

Ahh I see.

[GraemeE]

@68degreesorless essentially I tried to make it subtle so no one would be the wiser...then failed at subtlety by not realizing my phone would betray me in the bottom left corner
