Compilation Recommendations

Hi-What a terrific site-Am going to sunny Camden today to buy 4 of the Las Vegas Grind cd's that everyone agrees are tip top, and they have a couple of the Twistin Rumble series also. I absolutely have to get the Untouchables track on the home page. Can anyone advise if it is available on a cd anywhere please ? Thanks for your guidance.

welcome to sleaze lance.
crawlin's not on any comps yet so far as i know, the flipside benny the beatnick is (i think) (forget which though) - worth checking out if you can.

there was talk that crawlin' had been booted this year but so far none have materialised

Thanks icky poo. The shop I went to today to get Las Vegas Grind cd's was pretty good and am sure would be of interest to your members- www.nohitrecords.co.uk. They had vols 1,3, and 6 on cd and assured me that 2,4,5, don't exist- however amazon.com has vol 2-but not volumes 4 or 5. Do vols 4 and 5 exist as cd's please. I also bought vols 1-3 of twistin rumble-could you advise on the no this series goes up to.Thanks again

Twistin Rumble goes up to 7. Git em all! You can find em at cryptrecords.com

i have volumes 2 and 4, two is called louie's limbo lounge (it is titled Las Vegas Grind Volume two) on the lp's spine.

But I see you are looking for the cd's - it looks like they didn't issue the full series on cd - or compiled them all over 3 parts?
I'm a vinyl buyer so can't say for certain.

Las Vegas Grind on CD is titled Volumes 1,2,3, and 6. Volume 2 on CD has the Dan Clowes cover if you are looking. Twistin Rumble now has Volumes 1,2, and 3 on CD. Each covers two lps less a couple of track so they fit. I have been looking for Volume 3 on CD in the US. So far, it is only available through Crypt Germany. I am still looking for The Untouchables Crawlin' on vinyl, CD, or wave file.

Thanks for your help guys - much appreciated ! Hazmania- the Twistin Rumble vol 3 cd is also available at nohitrecords.co.uk at £10

i could have sold my copy of crawlin' almost 20 times over this year! Best offer i've had is £200
not for sale though, not unless I find another. In which case knowing my luck the buzz will probably have died off by then!

Martin how about doing a Tittyshakers compilation Lp?
I'd kill to have Icky Poo, Voodoo Drums and Crawlin' on vinyl

I wouldn't know where to begin licensing the tracks. Icky Poo seems to be pretty rare to find?

Voodoo Drums (do you mean the aki alongi 45?) should be easy enough to locate a copy? have you tried gemm.com or even ebay?

damn!
i was going to say that i have a spare copy, but i dug it out and it has a crack coming from the label into the grooves. it clicks a little at the end, but plays fine.
otherwise it looks vg+.
if anyone wants to trade...

jordi.

Which record do you have Jordi?

I have just scored a Mint copy of Voodoo Drums, I still need both Icky Poo & Crawlin'

no hit records aka sounds that swing best little record store in london - i hear they are moving from inverness street to bigger premises - well worth a visit for grind frolic etc - have been selling the stuff for years -and if you do go checkout the dj wheelie bag in all its glory on line shops such as spindrift bim bam and born bad worth a shout - but crypt germany is hard to beat - finally notice a few bloggers putting the comps up on their blogs - not sure about the etchics of this - stay grindin

These compilation disks had some solid tittyshakers on 'em. Some well-known, some not. Not all tracks on these are tittyshakers, tho...some will lean toward rockabilly or surf...but all are great comps!
