I don't really like music. I'm more into staring REALLY INTENTLY at my enormous record collection.

As to Heldon, I am only familiar with a few things, so I'm fairly useless to recommend anything else...I had heard "Stand By" and some other Heldon and Pinhas material when I worked for Let It Be records and we had just bought a huge prog and psych collection from an older guy with an interesting stash of LPs. The other two you listed are new to me as well; I will research these titles. Thanks for the tip!

Looking through that one fellow's collection tipped me off to a lot of great sounds that I would not have heard before, as well as hooking me up with some original LPs that I had always lusted after by the likes of Art Zoyd, Univers Zero, Amon Duul, etc. My boss got most of the primo Krautrock (all the Neu! and Can originals went into his collection), but due to slight differences in taste, I wound up getting a lot of great ones for myself (including some great NWW and Current 93 titles).

The one neither one of us could justify keeping was the original 1st pressing of Can's "Monster Movie," which wound up selling for over 1800 dollars, surpassing our wildest expectations. There were quite a few valuable records in that collection, but nothing else like that!

Hip Priest · 09.11.2006, 01:04 PM

The artists I listen to most are The Fall, Aphex Twin (in his many guisies), Sonic Youth, Horace Silver, Gaye Bykers on Acid, David Sylvian, Fats Waller, Propaganda and Shantygruppe Breitling.

Others I listen to on a regular basis are Olodum, Leos Janacek, Happy Mondays, The Undertakers (60's Merseybeat band, not the US band of the same name), Humphry Littelton, Les Pirates, Animal Collective, Farces Wanna Mo, The Stupids, Frankfurter, Sugababes, Anne Pigalle, Art of Noise, Shinra, Nwodtlem, Billy Fury, The Stupids and The Baby Men . I like to stream stuff online too.

I also listen, on a slightly less regualr basis, to The Bambi Slam, Fleischwolf, Abdullah Ibrahim and Ekaya, Eric B and Rakim, The Spinners, Scorpio Rising, iio, Tempole Tudor, Boogie Down Productions, Black Grape, Japan, Gomez, XTC, Fruchte Des Zorns, NAdia Ali, The Sermon, MC Tunes, Fields of the Nephilim, Thelonius Monk, Bix Beiderbecke, The Smiths, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Chris Potter, Ned's Atomic Dustbin, Kasabian, Rosetta Stone, The Duke Spirit, Bogshed, Madonna, Heaven 17, MC Solaar, Be Your Own Pet, music from the TV series The Prisoner and the film Betty Blue and The Barmy Army.

There are more whom I listen to occaisionally, and more again whom I like but not enough to buy music of, but listing them would be a bit silly.

I've probably forgotten some important people, so I'll add them as I remember them.

Yeah, there are some insanely well-heeled collectors out there. That is a world I am content to watch rather than join. I'm bad enough as it is.
It was cool to see and hold it, but for god's sake, that LP is easily available as a reissue, so the worth of the original being that high kinda floors me. I have heard of that album going for around 3000 in only marginally better shape than our copy was! The cover was totally different from the "robot" cover I was familiar with before. It said "Made In A Castle With Better Equipment" on it, and it looked like this:
