Pasadena City College Flea Market - The Movie
So it is safe to say that I am now addicted to the PCC flea market for all of my record buying needs. The selection can't be beat, and the prices......oh the prices..... if you have already watched the video on YouTube you know that I promised to say what I bought. And I do below.
Know that I have gone to the PCC flea market pretty much every month for the past six months, which has netted me many many new albums. So here's the video, I really enjoyed talking to these guys they were super helpful, and as you will be able to see, very knowledgeable.

Wednesday Night = Vinyl Night at Bar One
I found out about Vinyl Night at Bar One a few weeks ago from a flyer in a local record shop. If you are in the LA area this is definitely worth checking out.
Bar One serves a variety of beer and wine and welcomes customers to bring their own records to play on Wednesday nights. We had a great time there and did a little video about our night......
For my record side I chose.......
We had just picked it up the weekend before. Nothing like a little reggae of your choice at a low key bar on a Wednesday night :)

What Music Do I Play, On Valentines Day?
Tomorrow.....is Valentines Day. Love it or hate it, you might want to have some music for it. I have decided to scour my record collection for the titles they you may want to have on hand whether you are in love or just want to feel that lovin feelin this year.
In Love......
1. Al Green - I'm Still in Love with You - The name says it all. This is the perfect album to enjoy with a few glasses of wine, and a loved one. It's cliched, but so is V-day.
2. A Man and A Woman - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack - I come across this record all the time in stores and at Goodwill. We finally bought it and were pleasantly surprised. You'll likely recognize the title track, I did, and you don't have to see the movie to enjoy some sexy french singing.
3. Nat King Cole - Love is the Thing - If you're going to go all lovey dovey this Valentines Day you might as well stick to the classics. When I Fall in Love, At Last, Stardust, its all here, and a slow dance is probably in order.
4. Stevie Wonder - Songs In The Key of Life - I like Stevie Wonder for Valentine's Day because its not quite so sappy. It's a little more upbeat, and who can resist "As," I for one cannot.
5. Bossa Nova - Volume One - Soul Jazz Records - This is a two album set of Bossa Nova classics from the 1960s. It is sexy and soothing and amazing for any day of the year.

6. Stan Getz and Joao Gilberto - Getz/ Gilberto - More Bossa Nova classics as done by Stan Getz and Joao Gilberto. The whole album is more jazzy and less upbeat than the Bossa Nova album above...in a good way.

Ray Bryant - Me and the Blues
Jazz is probably one of my very favorite genres. We can thank jazz for being the basis of so many different types of music that exist now. Ray Bryant is a relatively new discovery, but I love this sound. Perfect for a lazy day exploring a local park.
A Special Public Service Announcement from Sarah's Records
If you love playing vinyl I know that this has happened to you. For us it is often after a long night of listening to music with friends, maybe with a few, or many, drinks. Your friends finally go home, you realize it is some ridiculous hour of the night and you hear this sound. Or maybe you doze off in front of the fireplace with a loved one and wake up to it. It's a soothing sound......
