N&G Secret Santa

So my secret santa showed up yesterday and I have to say I am thoroughly impressed. Wasn't sure what I would get as I didn't post any sort of want list or anything beyond wanting some Mach Hommy and you really nailed it. Had neither of these records and really looking forward to checking them out. Will post pics once I have but wanted to thank you in advance.

Also to my Santee, I was a little late on the draw but I'm hoping you get them in time. I am going to do some more research and see if I have to find an alternative to get them to you before Christmas, but I think you'll be happy with them~

I thought you would appreciate:

No need to worry anymore! Your gifts arrived last night and I'm really happy with them! Already spun both and they sound incredible. Both the BN80 series and Sam Records put out great products. You killed it! Glad you also enjoyed going through my wishlist as someone who is just dipping their toes into the jazz pool. Let me know if you need any recommendations!

PICTURES!
 
Looks like Chet dropped off a parcel to the fine folks at my local Post Office. I should have a package waiting for me when I get home from work! It still needs to be delivered, but it booked it to get to my local Post Office!
 
Looks like I have a package waiting for me at home! It’s safe inside and now I have to get through today’s workday before I can open it! Well that’s just incentive to work super hard so the day goes fast!! Pictures of course will be later when I open it!
 
Santa's sleigh made a stop in Manhattan yesterday and let me tell you, the delivery was sweet indeed!

There's been a William Onyeabor sized hole in my collection for far too long and Santa delivered the goods! This compilation is a heaping handful of fire emojis and some of the funkiest shit ever put to wax. My wife is pretty stoked on this one as well!

The second record is something new to me, but I played a couple tracks on Spotify (I know, I know) and this is very much my jam. Looking forward to irritating the neighbors with some southern fried rockin vibes courtesy of Lee Bains III cranked all the way to 11!

Now, Santa, unless I missed it you didn't include a note so I had to use some serious sleuthing to discern your secret identity. The Lee Bains LP was the key to unraveling the mystery, as there's only two folks on the boards here that have mentioned this artist. Based on the tracking origin of the package I had a geographic target within which to search as well. Both people who've talked about Lee Bains III on the forum live in the state where the package originated from but one lives over 2 hours away from the origin city, so with a little additional digging and cross referencing old posts, I am pretty positive my thanks for this year's Secret Santa should go to none other than....

Right on. Glad you liked everything.

I took a flier on the LBIII&TGF. Felt you'd like it though - it's more punk than anything else and I knew that'd be up your alley.

I actually composed a letter to include but in classic fashion left it out of the package. This has happened before so you're in the official club now.

Pretty sure i got them yesterday, but my wife thought they were sent from my mom.

I didn't have a lot of time to think about it as I was heading out the door for work.

I'll find out where she put them tonight and post a pic.

Sorry my friend, I think that package is from your mom :)

This was what I was following yesterday:
