Recent Non-Metal Purchases

I've been one of those people who really enjoys a wide variety of music. I've noticed there are a few more among us. So it's time for a Recent Non-Metal Purchases as well.

I bought a bunch of Stuff today at a summer flea market. Some stuff i had never ever heard of.

Nice, I recently found that Jimmy & Carol Owens, Pat Boone - Come Together at a thrift store. Grabbed it for a buck, haven't listened to it yet though.

Went to pick my wife up at the Ontario airport here in SoCal, and decided to hit the thrift stores in the area. Here's my haul:




 John Michael Talbot -the New Earth
Keith Green -For Him who has ears to hear
Amy Grant - Christmas
Terry Talbot -Cradle of love
Fireworks -s/t (finally ! Been looking for this one)
John Fischer -The new covenant
Gary Chapman -everyday man

CDs:
FFH -have i ever told you
East to West -north of the sky
PFR -Them
Chasing Furies -with abandon
Code of Ethics -blaze
Blindside -the great depression
Amy Grant -House of love
Selah -hiding place
Charlie Peacock -everything that's on my mind
Riki Michele -One moment please

I was rather satisfied with this haul

Wo some nice finds there. I've never heard of Fireworks. What kind of music is it? That East To West disc is pretty good as well.

Fireworks is Marty McCall's first band from the 70s - Marty then went on to sing for First Call for several years.  He also did backup vox with David Meece and BJ Thomas.

It's kind of what you'd expect from a 70s Pop Rock sort of sound - post folk rock. I was stoked to find this one cuz it's their 1st release.
(you can see all their albums here: http://www.guiltyforgiven.com/collection/F.html  )

Actually my favorite find in that bunch was the Riki Michele (previously with Adam Again, and once married to Gene Eugene) - that one was on my want list as was the Fireworks. The rest are just interesting albums to add to my collection. With the exception of Keith Green - I already have all his, but I grabbed this cuz it was only 49 cents ! I'll add it to my duplicates and hopefully someday find someone who wants to trade with me all my duplicates.

Wow, you guys shop like I do. Pretty much, if it's a Christian release from the last 40-50 years, I buy it.

^ you got it. If you ever get bored, you can take a look at my eclectic taste in music = http://www.guiltyforgiven.com/collection/numb.html

I grew up in a household of every style of music, from my mom's 50 and 60s to my brothers classic rock and top 40. So when I came to faith in '89 I began to gobble up every style of music that glorified our Father.
There's only a few styles that I don't care for - basically I like very little "Gospel" "Southern Gospel" "Bluegrass" and barber shop quartet stuff (though I have some of all of those in my collection - they're just not my thing).

I buy most of them for posterity. It is one of my goals to own every Christian release ever produced (in every format). Don't know what I'll do at that point. Open a museum?

  Good for you ! Keep that dream alive.

 nice! I've never seen this on vinyl, I only have it on cassette.

Lost this years ago and glad to get it back. Heard it for the first time in 30 years! I always loved this album, my older brother had it when we were kids.

^ very cool !

Sorry, I failed to specify that all those finds were CDs. Oops.

Bound to get me scolded:

Bridget Mendler - Hello my name is
Bowling For Soup - Fishin for Woos
Care Bears on Fire - Get Over it
Go Betty Go - Nothing is More
The Dollyrots - s/t

No scolding, rather more like a deer staring at headlights - with an occasional blink.

Bought two vinyls today at a flea market.

Clara Ward and her Gospel Singers - At The Village Gate
The Agape Singers & Esther Tims - Heartwarming Gospelsongs

^ hey some of those old gospel albums can rake in serious bucks.
I've got one I've been trying to sell on ebay off and on that's still sealed from the 60s - I've seen it elsewhere (opened/used) for up to 50 bucks. So far just "watchers" - I think it has more of a novelty value than anything else, cuz it's rather silly. I've been SO tempted to open it and listen to it.

I'd love to just get 20 bucks for it to help recoup some of my other music buying debt. If it doesn't sell by the end of the year, I'm just gonna open it and listen to it - my curiosity is killing me !

I just ordered 2 CDs for a female friend. Christafari and 'Imisi.
The Christafari CD is Reggae Worship: A Roots revival...
The 'Imisi CD is their first CD Visions Of The Father.

I hope and pray that these CDs will uplift her spirit and put a joyful song in her heart.

Oh I'm sure they will !
I've got everything by Christafari as well as "Visions of the Father" by Imisi. GREAT stuff !
If she likes reggae, there's a whole boatload of Christian albums out there. A lot of very good stuff. My fav of all time is Ben Okafor.
