Crate digging: Sandy Nelson "Drums A Go Go"
This is a scrumptious little vinyl find from junk-shop crate in Norwich. I only really bought it for the ace cover (and vaguely knowing about Sandy Neslon as a top-notch 60s drummer). I paid a quid and didn't even haggle (though any self-respecting crate-digger should have - even at that price - must have been the sunny weather:-). The sleeve is near perfect but the vinyl looks scratchy. But it's one of those wierd ones that actually plays really well (sometimes it goes the other way - looks great - plays terrible). It's actually a cracking record - particularly the title track. Because it's a drummer's record the beats are mixed really high up so in that sense it has a modern sounding power. Anyway - look at the sleeve and delight.
