Friends, several of you have asked where to buy Chinese records and now I have a good answer….Shellac Head!
That’s right, Shellac Head is an adjunct of Haji Maji and is offering rare ethnic 78 rpm records for sale. All records are carefully graded and professionally packed.
But that’s not all! Shellac Head is also offering cds of this rare music…the first of which will be announced soon.

Please tune in to the fantastico EXCAVATED SHELLAC this sunday (7-13-08), where I’ll be a guest blogger. I’m honored that the erudite JW has invited me to post a selection from my collection of rare 78 rpm Greek bouzouki records…check it out and see what you think!
If you haven’t stopped by Excavated Shellac before you’re in for a real treat. JW presents a dizzyingly diverse and eclectic array of 78 rpm records from around the world, with excellent sound quality and his inimitable encyclopedic commentary.
