Description
I have been buying on eBay now for many years and have over a thousand positive feedbacks. There is a reason why i have opened a new account with eBay to sell rather than use my existing account. I have in the last year or so returned to my Christian belief. I want to follow what is scriptual in disposing of what, quite honestly, has been a bit of a millstone around my neck. One day i looked around at all the many thousand items that filled two rooms and came to a dawning realisation that i had no idea what 90% of all this stuff was. I mean, i could go and buy something, play it once, log it, and that was the last i ever saw of it. So, this has handed me a golden opportunity to turn around this situation into something positive. I usually find something to say about what i am selling along with a track listing for albums. I hope that my passion and love for these items shines through occasionally amongst my rambling. So why would i want to just give them away. Simple, my love for Jesus as my redeemer is even greater. Matthew chapter 6 verses 1-4 explains the reason for a new eBay account whilst Matthew chapter 19 verses 16-21 gives my explanation for giving the lot to the Haiti Hospital Appeal. S O, D I G D E E P A N D B I D H I G H!!!! and keep watching as there lots of serious stuff to come (Unreleased Gram Parsons acetate, a couple of hundred Westwood one type radio shows, unreleased Townes Van Zandt acetate and hundreds more of similar ilk).
My
eBay has somehow been corrupted which is making my entries lose their
formatting. eBay are investigating. I will upload anyway as
i think most of you out there will be able to decipher something helpful.
Just keep scrolling down. As you will have seen on
the news, things are getting quite desperate over in Haiti with the outbreak of Cholera. As many of
you know, ALL monies raised in my auction go to the Haiti Hospital Appeal. Terry Allen - Lubbock (On

Jo Harvey) I Just Left Myself Terry Allen's 1979
double album, LUBBOCK (ON EVERYTHING), is a 20-song
folk-country-pop-jazz-art-weirdness masterpiece. Written and recorded in
the somewhat isolated west Texas college town where Allen grew up, it is an
ambivalently affectionate record. Allen's west
Texas character studies, like the high school football star turned Pinkie's
Mini-Mart robber in "The Great Joe Bob (A Regional
Tragedy)," are both empathetic and savage, skewering local mores and
pretensions with a wit that never becomes mean-spirited.
Other tracks, such as "The Collector and the Art Mob" and the
surreal "Truckload of Art," give the same treatment to the world
of visual art where Allen, an accomplished painter and sculptor, has spent
most of his adult life. The album ends with the
touching "Thirty Years War Waltz," a valentine to Allen's
writer/actress wife Jo Harvey Allen. Despite the often sarcastic lyrics,
sweetness and affection shine throughout this album. Review from
CDUniverse.com And then there was
Lubbock (on Everything). Simply the greatest country album ever. The country
Exile on Main St, Blonde on Blonde, and London
Calling rolled into one. Terry Allen is undescribable. Perhaps the closest I
can get is John Prine by way of Randy Newman? But that's
not even it. That can't convey the wit, the wry irony, the gothic comedies in
miniature. Everyone should own this album.
The insane stories, the vast melodic leaps between songs, (and within them).
"And it certainly seems some disease of the
dreams has been going around..." He captures the southern
inferiority-complex/ rebel pride dichotomy perfectly, but this
album is about high art, Wolfman Jack, cracker crunches, Pepsi & gin,
some chair that come'd from France, and anything else you
can think of. It's all of fringe America, Raymond Carver meets Tom Waits
meets Walt Whitman and beyond, our into the
ether. If you hate country music, you still need this one album. If you
wonder where every alt-country kid and Texas music rock
star has spawned in the last twenty years, this is the answer. Review from Amazon.com All LP's will be posted
out using proper mailers with stiffeners. Records will be taken out of
jackets before posting. I have given up with the
"Royal Mail pricing made easy" guide. It's about as much sense as
the Mad Hatter's Tea Party. I will determin the cost
on the basis of a single LP's weight plus the pennies for packaging, It's
cheaper. For the UK : £2.50 For Europe : £3.50 Forthe Rest of the World
