Totally different in style to Abraxas.. "Promise Of A Fisherman" is sublime..Originally Posted by Barry

After finding that a particular favourite song of mine, the theme song for "True Detective" season 1, was not done by T Bone Burnett, but rather a husband and wife outfit from New Mexico called The Handsome Family, I looked on Ebay for the CD. Price ranged from £21 for a used copy to £124 plus £21 postage for a new 'un from US. Definitely not happening.
Imagine my surprise when I found a copy at this morning's car boot for 40pOnly downside is that it's Country music. But it's ok really, I've heard a lot worse. A bit like Nick Cave actually.
I just dropped in, to see what condition my condition was in

Another one from this morning's car boot.
Son of Jazz trumpet man Don Cherry and half-brother of Neneh, I knew nothing about him apart from track one ("Save Tonight") which made the charts years ago. So just took a punt really. And I'm glad I did, some good songs well produced

We went to a boot sale today, but couldn't be bothered to look at CDs. I did glance at some LPs, but at 25p each they wouldn't have been of much interest (anyway as I told the seller I have about 2,000 and my partner would kill me if I bought any more!).

My wife did a boot sale today, after pitch deduction she made the princely sum of £49 which was hardly worth getting up at 6am for! I walked to see her with the dog who was far too interested in meeting people and other doggies to let me browse for anything!
I have that Eagle-Eyed Cherry CD, Steve, bought when it first came out in 1998 - might give it a spin now actually, as not played in years. [emoji4]

Yes it's my partner who does all they buying and selling. She did reasonably well today, making £72 profit.
I just take her there, and do the crossword, whilst she does all the haggling and sales spiel.
