I have a lot of dnb records. I’ve been buying them since 1994. Needless to say sometimes if I can’t find a record it just stays missing for a long period of time. LOL. It’s even worse now because I don’t have my whole collection at my apartment, some is at my mum’s etc. Everything from about 1999 onwards is pretty much at my place though.
I remember a couple of years ago I lost my Martyn – Nxt 2 U. I went through all my records and it was just missing. When I used to play out a lot, I could at least entertain the notion that I might have lost it at a gig but I don’t really play out anymore so if I lose a record it HAS to be in my place!! I remember Stunna helped me look and we just didn’t see it. All the other Martyn records were there but no Nxt 2 U. I found it a year later. Just sitting on the shelf, peacefully, untouched and dust bunnied.
Why am I telling you this story? Today’s oldie is a Bad Company record that I’ve been thinking about buying again because I was convinced it was lost. It was one of my favourites on this one Virus double pack. I seriously have been looking for that record since I moved to Chicago back in ’02. I was convinced that I had lost it in the move from Minneapolis. When I was at Gramaphone on Saturday I saw a used copy and almost bought it but decided I’d have one more look through my shit. I went to go mix at Reisha’s yesterday and went through all my Virus stuff and the record was just there, just hanging out. Where do they hide??? 🙂
