Crate digging, vintage samplers, green tea and slow afternoons making music.
Can you guess which city this is? It's overcast, cold, rains a lot, and we drink a lot of coffee... #overcast #ontempi

PS... the film clip is just as bad-good-bad... https://buff.ly/4fCHuZa

Shalamar was on some proper 80s nonsense with these song titles, but this cover is about as bad as it gets. The track however? Well it's bad too, but hilariously so, so check it. #cratedigging in Seattle.

Even back then, this was not it, and now, it's even less it. #cratedigging in Seattle.

I'm all for Christmas albums, but this, this is a hard pass. #cratedigging in Seattle.

Is this the strangest cover for a French flute and piano album? Calm down Jazz people. #cratedigging in #Seattle.

I bought this 60% for the creepy cover figure, and 40% for the "And French Folk Songs" text. Or maybe vice versa. Either way, it's terrible and great and more than a couple of sneaky samples ending up in the mix... #cratedigging in #Seattle.

Ten cents for this Ray Price record? Bargain. Aside from the lovely strings to sample, the namesake song is a beautiful breakup song, and Ray's legacy is an often understated part of country/crooning classic America. As the wonderful cover photo suggests. #samplephonic #sampling #rayprice

Loving these unhinged album covers from the era where putting something, anything, digital in the signal path of otherwise entirely analog bands was something worth marketing. Digital spectacular!!
