Another great resource: Waxidermy
A nice blog: Scorebaby Annex with a list of links to other cool blogs.
& Movie Grooves who sell this highly recommended book if you are into libraries sleeves (the genre where they are the most beautiful IMO :))

Qpchan wrote:

oh yeah ScoreBaby has a nice selection of recent reissue or compilations

mech1 wrote:

I second the scorebaby annex - just downloaded a nice Lex Baxter KPM rarity and the Eat Sushi comp of Japanese prog/funk goodness.

Funny link this:
Vadim Music from France went blogging and provides us with info on their upcoming re-releases. Jack Arel, wow! not sure if i need a bunch remixes with it.

Vadim's blog

Qpchan wrote:

none of these tracks deserve any kind of remixes, that's for sure...leave them alone, but still, respect for re-releasing such good stuff :)
that's DJ Vadim sites from the Ninja Tune stable btw... I think

mech1 wrote:

are you sure about that? I thought DJ Vadim lived in England? plus, I thought he was touring the US/Canada with One Self at the moment?

berb wrote:

This is Vadim Music. According to their blog they are related to the sadly missed 'Dare Dare' label.
I do not see the link with DJ Vadim here.

Agent Double-O-Soul has a steady supply of library on his sharity blog.

Monone is another French library enthousiast and trader who's not afraid to share.

J.C. Pierric shares a lot of his own library records. (Not always in high fidelity though.)

Qpchan wrote:

welcome here arne !! thanxx for those links...& thanks to those people that are kind enough to share the music. I see you're dutch, in case you know any dutch library label in existence...i don't remember ever finding any..

Qpchan wrote:

superstudio wrote:

Actually, for my list on Rateyourmusic I've scanned in or taken photos of the libraries I own, scanned some from Johnny Trunk's library book, or got some from various sources on the internet. I'm sure there are maybe two or three from here, however ;)

Qpchan wrote:

wow, thxx for joining here superstudio !! very good work on comments & pics you've done on this "rateyourmusic" list. How did you discover this forum ?? Looks like you're pretty new to Discogs but if you feel like submitting some of your records, plz do (we'll be happy to help if needed)

Qpchan wrote:

many of those websites are well alive, don't forget to check them =)

vascofvol wrote:

Anyone here can tell me what happened to the website

www.jackdiamond.com ?

I've bought a lot of Libraries LPs from there (CDs, too !)
in the past (5 years ago), and then I stopped because the guy who was under that website, known as David Singer, started charging my visa card without my permition,
fortunately, he only charged 2 CDs, and sent them to me.

But I have to admit that his website was great, and I miss it.

http://itscomingoutofyourspeaker.blogspot.com/ has a lot of library albums up. worth checking out.

[quote=vascofvol][/quote]

About four years ago I ordered some library CD bootlegs from jackdiamond.com and they never arrived, so about three weeks later I called him and he was grumpy, but he said he'd send them out again. I was actually surprised when they arrived the second time! Thinking back I should've stocked up before he went under, because he had some good stuff. It never bothered me that those CDs were boots. The quality is really good.
