To-Be-Announced

Hola, 欢迎, добро пожаловать, Croeso, Welcome to To-Be-Announced!

A few months ago, a small bottle of saline solution found its contents emptied into the workings of my old laptop (RIP) and effective washing away code and files. Bummer, minimally said. But that was then. This is now; me pecking away on the keyboard of a brand-spanking new macbook. Feels good!

My buying has not waned too much during this sad interim. And I have a heavy stack to rip and photo and upload. So that’s what I’m gonna be doing this coming week. I don’t really expect anyone to be reading this, but if you are.. expect a good dump of Recent Adds by July 6th or 7th. Thanks!

What a slick bassist here. This is off an album called ‘Afrika’ and the group itself is called ‘Afrika’. Wouldn’t you know, they are actually South African, but I’d say this track is a good marker of some early 90s musicians dipping their toes into the fusion pool. The waters’er fine fellas, jump in :)

You're Fabulous 12"

Rick Dash & The Nue-Niles

S.D. Productions, U.S.A. 1988

VG+/VG+

Product #1206

€349.98

Rick Dash & The Nue-Niles released this, their only record, thirty-seven-years-ago in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The group split after feuding over gambling debts. Rick moved back to Philadelphia and the Nue-Niles to Miami and St. Augustine, Florida. Even if the group's time together totaled less than three months, they managed to write, record and master one crazy nice twelve-inch.

The person who buys this record (thank you!) gets two version of the "You're Fabulous" song; a regular and a 'Dance Mode' version. The later is a pathological production. It's got a good rap break, a sweet sax solo (actually good, I promise), one keyboard riff which verges on Tone Loc.

"Are you serious?" the girl asks? Mmm not joking. Another lyric; "Girl you look so good, all I wanna do is touch your womanhood". But this record is best know for the clarinet, keyboard, guitar song named "Loveseeker". Again this production is Unflinchingly Unorthodox and oozes a Unique Uneasy Florida charm.

Ain't it a shame someone bet the farm on the Pistons of Detroit over the Hollywood Lakers in Game 7 of the NBA Finals? These guys should've stuck with it. There is another copy online, in similar condition, for a cool, breezy 500 United States Dollars, and looking at sales stats (sold 6x in over 7 years & maxing out at 300 €uros), that doesn't seem entirely outrageous.

Yesterday I was messing around with the shoppe and briefly had the 'Coming Soon' items revised to 'Available' and made 2.5 orders and sold 4 records. Thanks guys! It's a little sad to say 'goodbye' to these records, but definitely a good 'hello' to 2025 :)

I acknowledge grading is partially subjective and may not be uniformly applicable. As far as cassette tapes, compact discs or any other physical media, the grading will be more descriptive than discrete since there seems to be no widely acclaimed grading standard. The product images and clips are from the copy for sale. The customer ("You", "Buyer") are welcomed to ask for further clarity regarding questions regarding grading, or really anything else.

The buyer ("You") pays with PayPal and thus, will obviously need to meet whatever criteria PayPal sets as requirement to own an account. Furthermore, make sure the shipping address submitted in your order matches the shipping address set in your PayPal payment. If not, message me either prior to purchase or directly afterwards.

All shipping is done via PostNord Sverige. Orders are sent registered and can be tracked inside your account's shipping module or via PostNord's Track 'n' Trace.
