Golden Dean Martin Vol. 2
A Taiwanese bootleg from the '60s marketed to soldiers serving in Asia. I picked mine up on my first tour of Central Ontario thrift stores. I still can't talk about some of the things I saw there.

The Rolling Stones - Emotional Rescue
Arguably the Stones worst album but, what the hell. It was cheap and it has She's So Cold.

Neko Case - Fox Confessor Brings The Flood
Though not officially Canadian, I believe Ms. Case has put in enough time that she'll find someone to vouch for her when the southern unpleasantness reaches rock bottom.

This was one hundred per cent a blind thrift store buy because it was on the Beatle-owned Apple label.

20 Golden Pieces Of Lena Horne
Torontonians of a certain vintage will notice the sticker for the sadly departed Peter Dunn's Vinyl Museum. I'd visit the Yonge Street location every time I came into the city. I believe there was another on Lakeshore.

Late '70s pub rock from yesterday's thrift haul. They do a cover of Dirty Water by The Standells - the first punk song IMHO - changing the original's Boston setting for London.
