DVD offers #2 and #3: XXX gay porn

July 20, 2016

Two offers of gay porn DVDs (details below): a set of 12 thematic compilations of scenes from gay porn; and 8 boxes of assorted gay porn, 18-20 discs per box. Yours for mailing costs only.

You’re welcome to ask for as many boxes as you’d like. In fact, we (Kim Darnell and I) encourage people to ask for more than one box, since unclaiimed DVDs will be destroyed (local agencies will not take X-rated material).

To ask for any of this material — you can ask for N boxes, we choose which ones, or you can request specific boxes — SEND E-MAIL TO ME at arnold.zwicky@gmail.com (Kim — drdcrunk@gmail.com — will then send you mail about shipping arrangements).

Warning: porn DVDs are notorious for being shoddily made; a fair number of them are seriously flawed. Enchanting as the idea is that I should play all of the hundreds of discs to make sure they’re in good shape, the task is beyond me, so there are no guarantees about the physical quality of the discs.

Last call: gay music, mix CDs, X-rated collages

July 6, 2016

Three offers still out that have had no takers and will go away on Monday the 11th (the first to a local donation site, the other two to the trash heap):

#8 gay music (here)

#4 mix CDs (here, described in detail below), now in a special offer

#1 X-rated gay collages, mounted for hanging (here), also in a special offer described below

I’m giving special offers on the last two because they’re the work of my own hand and I hate to just throw them away.

You pay only shipping expenses. To request an offer, SEND E-MAIL to me (arnold.zwicky@gmail.com), with your mailing address, and Kim Darnell (drdcrunk@gmail.com) will get in touch with you about mailing and payment.

Conversations in music: offer #21, the last of the CDs

July 5, 2016

The last of the CD offers, five boxes (of 30-40 discs per box) of conversations between musical voices: chamber music, of many kinds (plus a few odd surprises, of discs that have turned up since earlier offers were put together).

Filtering out chamber music involving a piano — most, but not all, of these items went into offer #20, of keyboard music — these collections are heavy on string quartets, from many hands.

At the keyboard: offer #20, in seven parts

July 5, 2016

Moving towards the end of the CD offers: a large assortment of music for keyboard instruments, mostly the piano, in seven installments (each with 30-40 discs): six according to the composer, plus one box of collection CDs arranged by performer.

Instrumental music, mostly large-scale

July 3, 2016

… and not featuring the piano. The latest collection of CDs from Las Casas Zwicky, as I move through the classical music recordings. Still to come are two gigantic collections, of chamber music and music featuring the piano (yes, they overlap, annoyingly). Meanwhile, a tiny assortment of recordings with instruments other than the piano, and then a bunch of large-scale instrumental works, mostly symphonies. This is offer #19, Instrumental, in two boxes, which can be asked for separately or together.

Vocal music: two offers

July 2, 2016

Now attacking the classical music CDs, bit by bit. Two huge categories (piano music and chamber music), one large one (symphonies), and a smaller collection of vocal music, which I’ve divided into two collections of about 25 discs each, now on offer: #17, small-scale works (songs, lieder), and #18, larger-scale works (up to opera size).

CD surprise boxes

July 1, 2016

For several days, Kim Darnell and I have been laboring on the great bulk of my music CDs, from several locations in the two condos. Offers for relatively small focused collections went out earlier; now we are coping with three huge collections, labeled for internal purposes as Pop / Rock, Quirky / Eccentric, and Classical. Even this crude categorization was problematic and difficult to make (there’s a lot of fusion music, and performers cross from one genre to amother), and even more vexed was the possibility of pulling out smaller categories from these huge ones. In the end, we just gave up on the first two giant categories; Classical has been divided, but still needs further work, not to mention many hours of copying stuff to my iTunes.

In any case, I have 7 boxes of P/R stuff, 4 of Q/E, divided on (roughly) alphabetic grounds (so they’re sort of surprise packages), each box with 30-50 albums in it. We’re offering these separately, but you can ask for as many boxes as you want.
