Media Dig 11/18/12

In between working on house-cleaning projects and homework projects, I felt like a ride on my bike and I had a couple bucks in my pocket so I biked on down to the Goodwill in West Eugene. Tapes and records there are 10 for a dollar, and I often find strange goodies there. In all honesty, it's pretty hit or miss there, but if you've got an open mind and a pretty good idea how to use strange finds, it can be a great place to dig. So here's my haul today, all this for 2 dollars. They're nothing that exciting, but several of the individual items have some unique charm about them that appeals to media nerds.

 

There are some promising things in this pile, the Top Gun soundtrack, "World in Motion" by England New Order, a good condition copy of Switched On Bach, which you can never have too many copies of, an Italian-issue cassette of the "Dirty Dancing" soundtrack, some new age spiritual lectures, a couple of interesting kids tapes, Including one with 28 Bert and Ernie songs including that famous 'are-they-teaching-kids-about-drugs-or-letters' classic "Would you like to buy an 'O'"

The plan here is to do up a live mix of stuff from this pile and upload it later. Nothing fancy, just a fun mix of the niftiest stuff I found. I'll also take photos of the more interesting pieces and post them here later.
