SKIVLISTA 3-2018 Hello Music Lovers, the Following Items Will Be Sold on Open Auction Which Means You Can Ask About Leading Bids by Phone Or Mail
AUCTION – AUKTION SKIVLISTA 3-2018 Hello music lovers, The following items will be sold on open auction which means you can ask about leading bids by phone or mail. Please send your starting bids by mail, phone or post before the last day of auction. Hoppas allt är bra med er och era skivspelare. Här kommer en ny lista och jag hoppas du hittar något intressant till Auction deadline is Tuesday, March 27, 2018 at 22.00 / 10 PM Central samlingen. Jag har reflekterat över att vissa artister som tidigare brukade vara mycket efterfrågade nu är tämligen European time (20.00 / 8 PM UTC/GMT) svårsålda. Två bra exempel är Elvis och Spotnicks. Visst, jag förstår att det är ointressant om man redan har alla STOPPDATUM ALLTSÅ TISDAGEN DEN 27 MARS 2018 KL. 22.00 SVENSK skivorna på listan i samlingen. Men då ser jag heller ingen anledning att aktivt leta efter skivor med dessa artister för SOMMARTID. att eventuellt hitta något ni saknar. Det bästa är om ni som bara vill ha Elvis eller någon annan artist skickar en lista på vad ni har eller vad ni söker. Jag hjälper gärna till att leta fram skivor ni saknar men att lägga ner tid och resurser 7" SINGLES/EPs FOR AUCTION på att köpa in speciella artister som ni ändå aldrig köper verkar knappast meningsfullt. Men kom gärna med förslag på vad ni vill se mer av i mina listor. Någon speciell musikgenre? Minimum bid (M.B.) is SEK 50 / US$ 8 / € 6,- / £ 5 unless otherwise noted . Rutan har fått en fettknöl på huvudet bortopererad i dag men är nu hemma igen, pigg och glad.

“Rapper's Delight”
1 “Rapper’s Delight” From Genre-less to New Genre I was approached in ’77. A gentleman walked up to me and said, “We can put what you’re doing on a record.” I would have to admit that I was blind. I didn’t think that somebody else would want to hear a record re-recorded onto another record with talking on it. I didn’t think it would reach the masses like that. I didn’t see it. I knew of all the crews that had any sort of juice and power, or that was drawing crowds. So here it is two years later and I hear, “To the hip-hop, to the bang to the boogie,” and it’s not Bam, Herc, Breakout, AJ. Who is this?1 DJ Grandmaster Flash I did not think it was conceivable that there would be such thing as a hip-hop record. I could not see it. I’m like, record? Fuck, how you gon’ put hip-hop onto a record? ’Cause it was a whole gig, you know? How you gon’ put three hours on a record? Bam! They made “Rapper’s Delight.” And the ironic twist is not how long that record was, but how short it was. I’m thinking, “Man, they cut that shit down to fifteen minutes?” It was a miracle.2 MC Chuck D [“Rapper’s Delight”] is a disco record with rapping on it. So we could do that. We were trying to make a buck.3 Richard Taninbaum (percussion) As early as May of 1979, Billboard magazine noted the growing popularity of “rapping DJs” performing live for clubgoers at New York City’s black discos.4 But it was not until September of the same year that the trend gar- nered widespread attention, with the release of the Sugarhill Gang’s “Rapper’s Delight,” a fifteen-minute track powered by humorous party rhymes and a relentlessly funky bass line that took the country by storm and introduced a national audience to rap.
