New records and CDs

No work today meant record shopping! Another difficult time sorting through what to buy and what to pass on. Passed on at the last minute (so sad): Arthur Russell - World of Arthur Russell (Soul Jazz) - I will buy this next time, dammit; Dizzee Rascal's new album (used); Trojan's Upsetters Singles Box Set; Stark Reality - Now (Stone's Throw); and V/A - Nigeria 70: The Definitive Story of 1970s Funky Lagos (Afrostrut).

Bought: Amps for Christ - The People at Large (5RC) - my favorite album of the year thus far; V/A - Wooden Guitar (Locust Music); Oneida - Secret Wars (JagJaguwar); Kanye West - The College Dropout (finally my very own copy!); and New Hope for the Ape-Eared: The Best of Scharpling & Wurster on the Best Show on WFMU Vol. 2 - SO FUCKING FUNNY!
