What's a road trip without a mandatory stop to some of your favourite record stores?
In this particular case, it's Zardoz Records and Groove City Records in Hamburg.
I was convinced that my little list would lead to positive results, but I guess the items were not that obvious.
With both record store having a vast selection of soul, jazz and hip hop, I was looking for
- a coloured vinyl re-issue of J Dilla's "Donuts" (sampled FZ)
- another coloured vinyl edition of Madvillany's album (sampled FZ)
- the coloured vinyl version of Madlib's "Rock Kondukta Pt 2" (sampled FZ)
- another coloured vinyl edition of Med, Blue & Madlib's Bad Neighbor" (sampled FZ)
- the coloured vinyl edition of Quasimoto "The Further Adventures Of..."
I did come across the black vinyl edition of the Quasimoto album, with very interesting artwork, referring to Sun Ra and to Frank Zappa on the album cover, but I ticked this one off my list quite a while ago already...
Anway, we have another day in Hamburg today.
No record stores, I guess, but mentally preparing for Zappanale...
