long beach from the bottom
Yesterday, I went out on a Prach Ly tour of Long Beach...more upcoming in the Beachcomber, but he gave me 2 CDs of his female rap group and one of Cambodian classical music...killer stuff, Sylvia has the classical one now.
Got some grrrrrreat 45s. Uncle John by Wild Child Gipson, which I'd always craved, & a fine, fine Hollywood label doo wop by Joe Lyons & the Arrows...about 10 records in all, for $22. Several days later, the same day as the Prach Ly, picked up some good private and advertising pressings of 45s/LPs from an ex-coffee merchant. Very delicious, but don't ask him about Starbucks.
Today, went to a planning commission hearing, very dull stuff, about a controversial room addition.
Sylvia found out that the neighboring house will be demoed Tuesday.
Tomorrow I look for more 45s...wish me luck. Naomi on Termino. This search for 45s is starting to pay off. Today, took the day off from WPMD, next week, gearing up for Five Boroughs/Norman Fox show & doo wop concert that nite. Wowie!

Sounds like you're really on the hunt these days...and doing well! Congratulations on your finds. And you liked the Cambodian rapper's stuff? I'd like to hear it! Is it a female rap act, or does he rap as well? I guess rap is the music of the young and the restless these days, anything else is just for us dinosaurs....proud of you for being on the pulse!
your daughter,
Heather
