Dust & Grooves - Adventures in Record Collecting

For close to a month now, I've been going back and fourth about ordering a copy of 

Dust & Grooves "Adventures in Record Collecting". The debate, if you want to call it that,

is more of a "When will I?" than a "Should or shouldn't I?" As much as I've become an avid collector again in recent years. I tend to be more interested in what other collectors have in their bins, boxes and monumental structures. Being that I've yet to see a copy in any book or record store. The video below went a long way to further my need to have it. 

After viewing this, I felt the need to share it. If not to provoke more interest. 

To further position myself to order my own copy.  So after a lot of hard work and due diligence. I give you Dust & Grooves. Enjoy. James Damion

Feral Babies Final Show - Full Set

If you're familiar with the blog you'll know that Dave and I have a mutual admiration for Tampa's Feral Babies. I was lucky enough to see them live and hang out with them a couple of times and I can honestly say they're some of the best people around. Unfortunately for me, I was unable to book my private jet to attend the bands final gig. Thanks to modern technology and Christian Costello of the band Station Cases, It's all here for your listening and viewing pleasure. Thanks to Christian and The Feral Babies for the music, 

the memories and the good times. I'm looking forward to new projects, side projects 

and post projects. Until then, enjoy the set. James Damion

The Heavyweight Champion of Record Blogging

In 2013 and going as far back as 2012 I quickly became obsessed with you tubes bottomless pit of record diggers, vinyl junkies and just about anything involving record collecting. There are many, many people who share the love, passion and obsession of crate digging and vinyl hoarding. After over a year of searching and viewing numerous people talk about and share their record collections. I finally struck video blogger gold. After watching a single video post from this gentle giant I was hooked. His laid back nature, natural vibe and selection of diverse music from various genres led me from one post to another. Here is a man who seems to have a unique and interesting story to tell. One I'd be very interested in hearing. Without further ado, I give you, Dereck Von. James Damion
