I'm Down with the Brothers big score!!!

Found a dumpster with about 400 LP's and picked out this gem today.

Nice score! I can't show the record I just found because it shows a topless woman and the title sounds incestuous.

400 just dumped? Wow

It was an apartment building who are cleaning out their storage room. The porter told me last week they dumped a lot but still have a room with stacks of them. I'll be back tomorrow.

My uncle would go nuts over that. (He's hot platters on the web and Ebay.) This is what he does; buys and sells old albums.

I was able to get another 50 lps in VG and above condition which range between $10 to $35 a piece. The nice thing about shipping records is it's economical thru media mail.

After doing more research The Ghetto brothers LP is considered a "Holy Grail" disk due to its rarity and historical background.

Dang! Nice score! Can we vote this one a banner find because technically you found it? That looks to be in great condition, I'll bet you'll get a couple grand for it!

Thanks for the thought. I agree with your point. It was buried under a lot of crap in the dumpster and was free.

Wow! Nice pickup. With my ignorance on full display, I would have walked right by that album.

The trick is to look for non major record labels. This one was on Salsa. The obscure, I never heard of it can be rare limited pressings even of major artists before they signed with labels like Warner, Sony, Polydor, CBS and so on.

Good to know. Thanks.
