Found pretty much all of my RSD wants about a half hour from home: Gong, Panda Bear/Sonic Boom 7”, Ngozi Family, and Sonic Youth. Didn’t find the Elevators or Charles Tolliver but I can live without both (or find them for list or less down the line).
Hometown shop doesn’t do RSD releases (yet) but they dropped 200+ used discs today so I made a stop there on my way home. Found Neil Young’s Freedom (long time looking for that one!) plus some Big Star, Screamin’ Jay Hawkins, and an Albert Ayler/Don Cherry box set that I’ve been on the lookout for.
All in all a great RSD. (Time to start saving for summer shows!)

I picked up a 1973 French pressing of Flying Teapot at a local spot, it is a little scuffed but decent, a promo of You Must Be Certain of the Devil by Diamanda Gals, a fully partied on and musty copy of the First Scottt Walker album real cheap, and the Requestioning Violence 7 inch by Blownapart Bastards.
I ended up buying the Ween, Elevators, and Sonic Youth RSD releases, probably would have bought the Coltrane in France if I saw it in person, but those recordings were always pretty wonky, and I did not see anything about these being new sources so I don’t consider it a must have.

Found a MOFI copy of Stevie Nicks - Bella Donna for $5 at a flea market this weekend. It’s a good album but I already have a standard copy and see no need for a MOFI. Cleaned it up and took it to the shop for a trade that yielded:
Roy Ayers - Ubiquity (‘24 reissue)
Pete Rock - NY’s Finest Instrumentals
Warren Zevon - The Envoy
Five bucks well spent!

copying/pasting an image or an image URL usually works for me?
