Hey y'all thanks to this thread I subscribed to Vinyl Me Please for Mm..Food last month and decided to keep the subscription going. Here's month 2: Honestly though, I think I might switch to their "Classics" track from Rap/Hip Hop. Lot of random, obscure, awesome sounding 70s poo poo coming out of there. In non-VMP news I also got this, which has been on my want list for about five years now:  If you like experimental instrumental hip hop with Brazilian beats, then this is the album for you.

I got Mm..Food last month and am currently waiting on the “Soul Makossa” album from this months Classics. Will most likely be going back and forth between the Hip-Hop and Classics tracks.

Monthly for Vinyl Me Please is $42 (£32-ish) - they don't mention any shipping costs, I'm right at the button to order for just a month and see what it is like. Surely they have to gently caress me over on shipping costs, right?!

Shipping should be included in the subscription if I remember rightly, that's why the international subscription costs more.

Don’t know if it’s only for existing members, but supposedly international shipping for VMP is free for this month.

Cross-post from the hip-hop thread but I figured some people here would be interested. I recently got a huge collection of funk/soul 45's and I thought that it would be fun to do some research as I catalog them to determine if they were sampled in any hip-hop records. I wanted to share some of them with you all as I go through them and hopefully it is interesting. I was thinking of starting with some of the more prolific samples but hopefully throw some more obscure stuff in there as well. Al Green - I'm Glad You're Mine  Al Green was a singer, songwriter, and producer who is widely considered one of the most influential and gifted soul artists of all time. He had countless hits over his long career, which dates back to the late 60's. The song I'm Glad You're Mine has been sampled over 100 times by a wide range of artists. It was first sampled by MC Lyte in 1988 for her song Paper Thin. MC Lyte was the first solo female rapper to release a full-length rap album. Eric B. & Rakim flipped it in 1990 for the song Mahogany and Notorious BIG used it on both I Got a Story to Tell and What's Beef?. The part that everyone samples is the intro drum break and it is really interesting to see how one little break helped create a catalog of music.

Went to Josey Records in Kansas City. One of the bigger record stores I’ve been in.  They had so much to choose from but unfortunately I still didn’t find the Manhattans record I’m trying to hunt down. This was my haul though:

Also random fact but the six records I got last night put me at an even 100 in my collection. Small compared to many of you I’m sure but still a pretty sweet milestone to hit.

Never going to happen. Although I decided that I am going to start listing some on discogs since I have a bunch of duplicates of popular soul/funk so maybe I’ll slowly chip away.

Let me know if these are going to clog up the thread, but I figured it was interesting to some people. Betty Wright - Clean Up Woman As soon as I heard this song, I knew it had to have been sampled but didn't know where I had heard it. Whosampled.com is really an awesome resource for this kind of stuff.  Betty Wright is a Soul / R&B singer and songwriter who rose to fame in the 1970's. Clean Up Woman was one of her biggest hits and has been sampled nearly 40 times. In total, her compositions have been sampled nearly 150 times. Outside of Hip-Hop, she is probably most recognized as the vocal sample in Avicii's song My Feelings For You which came from her 1979 song, All This Love That I'm Giving. The first hip-hop song that sampled Clean Up Woman was Wait Stop Start The Clock by Sha-Rock in 1987. Sha-Rock is considered the first female emcee to be recorded "on wax" and the first to appear on television. Other songs that have sampled this record include Dreamin' by G.Love & The Special Sauce, Favorite Song by Chance The Rapper feat. Childish Gambino, Real Love (Remix) by Mary J. Blige feat. Notorious BIG, and This is How We Do It (Puff Daddy Remix) by Montell Jordan.

Never buying Mondo again tbh. Their artworks are good, but the records themselves just aren't worth that price. They're more of a packaging company.

I’m up in Lake Tahoe, CA this weekend and unfortunately it appears that the only “record store” around is on the opposite side of the lake. Might try and hit one on the way home tomorrow.

The 5th Dimension album is fun. Surfin' Safari is essentially something to frame and put on your wall. Beyond the title track and 409, it's pretty rough. That said, it was their debut album and only cost you a quarter.

Got back from a trip today and I had this month's VMP waiting for me. I decided to switch from the hip-hop track to the classics in order to get the Soul Makossa album by Lafayette Afro-Rock Band. This album is contains the song Hihache, which is legendary in the hip-hop world and has been sampled in 227 songs according to whosampled.com. The drum break in the song has been sampled by many hip-hop legends including LL Cool J, Biz Markie, Ice Cube, Public Enemy, De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest, and Eric B & Rakim. Album is really good so far. I am definitely going to try my hand at flipping the sample on Hihache just to see if I can do anything interesting with it (doubtful).

I almost changed tracks to pick up Soul Makoussa, but I went with my original plan of getting Electric Circus as a swap instead. Having said that, I already ordered Lafayette Afro Rock Band’s follow up album, Malik, for next month’s VMP shipment. I do plan to get Soul Makossa when they put it in the shop or make it available as a swap option some time down the road.

Got my preordered John Maus reissues today and it turns out they're the same coloured vinyl as they were in the super limited 350-bucks-on-discogs box set, that was a nice surprise. And the discogs price is plummeting.
