Hello !! .. to All who Know About, or may Stumble across this Blog..
Today is April 16th, 2019..
& I've had this Blog running for almost 8 years now...
and...oh, i dunno,..
as much as I have been Grateful for these LP Blogs
that opened up a world of exposure to Rare Records over the years,
it seems that doing it "this way", is a totally passe'/dead internet "fad" if you will,
and doing it this way is Soooooo '10 years ago'...lol..
due mostly to the emergence of i.e; iTunes, Spotify, Pandora, etc,..
but not to forget YouTube
and their recent allowance of MUCH longer duration time (and then some)
to be on a Single Uploaded Video..
So,..with a Heavy Heart,... < {i'm Lying, i could give a shit!..lol}
this will be the EotL for this Blog < at least as a "DL site" that is,..
note; I WON'T take this blog down, NOR will i remove the DL links...
{i.e;. if This Blog / the DL links go dead, blame Blogger / Mediafire,..Not Me..lol)
id actually like to keep this blog up as a 'side conversation' < {whatever that means..}
but any more 'main additions' will be moved to a Streaming YT Channel..
..this Link Directly Below is My 'Main' YT Channel,
& a " Sister Channel " to it, beneath that..
which is Focused more towards;
Strange/Odd/Weird/Bizarre/Obscure Records & Recordings..
For the Love of Good Music
Bizzarowetz!
So if you've enjoyed what i have shared over the years,
feel totally free to let me know in a comment,
and what i could do to make my YT channel(s) more appealing...
A Big Thank You to All who have Appreciated My Taste in Music !
See You on Zoo... uh,..i mean; You Tube!
Hallowicious..

Voltage Brothers - Throw Down (1978)
Funk/Dance Group out of Rochester NY {i believe..}
Good Late 70's Funk,
but i can't help giving an opinion,
that the Disco-ish tunes on this LP (while very enjoyable,) were sounding a little 'Dated' by then,..
..Even by '1978' Standards...
{i.e.; .. the "Philly Soul Sound" Went 'Out' after 1976..}
here
Matrix - IX (1977)
Horn Based 70's Jazz Fusion group out of Wisconsin
This Release is Actually a Reissue
of their 1st LP from a year earlier,
on Independent Label; Ultra Nova ...
when they got signed to RCA
More Info & Discography on this Group

WNOK 105 - Columbia, SC.
May 7, 1983
Here's a Treat for all of you Columbia South Carolina Residents,
..who are more likely in the 55-65 y.o. Range for this...
I found Old Dirty Cruddy 8 Track Tapes at the bottom of a Box at a Junk Store..
and one of them, was this homemade recording from someone (in Col. SC obviously..)
taping snippets off of 105 WNOK Top40 Radio back then...
i won't get into what i had to do to make this playable after all these years,
but i fixed the damn thing so i can transfer it.
{you can see the actual transfer in progress a few posts ago,...
...i know, like anyone gives a shit...lol..
... surprising that someone was still messing with '8track tapes' in "1983"}
It becomes Very Apparent early in the broadcast
that it was taped off of the radio in 1983...
and towards the end, the actual date
is indirectly revealed in a "Jewelry Warehouse" commercial....
{also,..if someone can find me the 'old 105 WNOK logo' from the Early 80's, let me know in the comment section...thx}
Note : Dare i mention the Obvious,..
though i did my best during the Transfer & Digital Clean-up,
This Recording by its Nature, is Less than 2nd rate,
Excerpts, Abrupt Stops between Songs,
...& Tape Hiss Galore..lol....enjoy!

Impact - The Pac Is Back (1977)

...or This Album?...
here

Back with More ! ... lol

LOL... Ok, On with the Show...

Jeff Wayne Space Shuttle
theme from "Star Trek"
& "Planet of the Apes" {Apes' Shuffle}
(1975)
at first glance, this looks like another mid-70's kiddy LP..
..not really...
This LP is a Bizzare Hodgepodge/Mish-Mosh of
60's Surf / Groovy-Jazzy-Funky-Lounge {a'la spacey-synthesizer} /
& 2 - 60's TV Show themes {just Bizarrely thrown on there..}
Listening to this whole album,
one could surmise, that this 'jeff wayne' dude, was a musician
that wanted to Cash-In on the geeky Sci-Fi craze of the time,
so he pressed to vinyl whatever was on his Revox tape machine
from the previous 10 years,
and threw that 'barely-correlated' theme on the cover...
{In Actuality,..this Album really has NOTHING to do with "Planet of the Apes".. lol..}
