You can't drop that on us and not include a pic.
Ha, I also like the fictional cover story featuring Arnold, Sly, and Bruce. |
Re: The VINYL Thread!
Random question (I may have asked it but I don't remember the answers) - do any of you vinyl fiends buy an extra copy to store away when buying a hot new release or collector's item?
Just curious. |
Re: The VINYL Thread!
No, I don't buy vinyl to resell. I buy it to listen. I do keep them in the best shape I can, but that's more for audio quality.
|
Re: The VINYL Thread!
I don't think I've ever bought multiple copies. Pretty much buy to listen. I have traded/sold some over the years, not that often though.
|
Re: The VINYL Thread!
Had two $30 coupons at Amoeba, and this was my haul (all original issue):
Herbie Hancock: Headhunters Peter Gabriel: Peter Gabriel (second album) Stevie Wonder: Innervisions David Bowie: Hunky Dory Frank Zappa: Waka/Jawaka Scott Walker: Tilt King Crimson: Starless and Bible Black Echo & The Bunnymen: Porcupine The Jam: Setting Sons Prince with Miles Davis: Crucial (bootleg) |
Re: The VINYL Thread!
Nice.

Just curious. But I never buy multiple copies of new vinyl. |
Re: The VINYL Thread!
While I was in England I picked up the following:
Teenage Fanclub - Bandwagonesque (original Creation release) Oasis - Definitely Maybe (original Creation release) XTC - "Senses Working Overtime" (7" w/picture sleeve) The Jam - "Going Underground" b/w "The Dreams of Children" (7") The Style Council - "My Everchanging Moods" 7" (w/picture sleeve) |
Re: The VINYL Thread!
Nice job! I'd love to have those first two. (And I'm a huge XTC fan but have enough!)
I see a lot of Jam love lately. I just ran all my Jam albums through the Spin Clean so it's like I have all new copies! |
Re: The VINYL Thread!
Picked up the 5 LP set from Die ärzte "Die Nacht der Dämonen" via amazon.de
Nice collection, my only complaint is the booklet is what was included with the CD (same size). Sounds great though |
Re: The VINYL Thread!
Small but satisfying week:
Ween - White Pepper (2009 reissue on white vinyl) $15 Jonathan Rado - Law and Order (dude from Foxygen - solo album) - new Byrds - Sweetheart of the Rodeo - $3 King Crimson - Larks Tongues in Aspic (UK version) - $1 |
Re: The VINYL Thread!
I went to an event at the Egyptian last night for Day of the Dead (1985). Waxork just released a deluxe edition of John Harrison's score on vinyl and - wow - did they ever do a phenomenal job on this thing. 2-LP, gatefold, THE DEAD WALK insert liner notes; it's a thing of beauty.
|
Re: The VINYL Thread!
^ Glad to hear it. Mine should be arriving in the mail from Waxwork soon.

Re: The VINYL Thread!
Went to a record show over the weekend:
Bob Dylan - Nashville Skyline (original, old Columbia label) Bob Dylan - John Wesley Harding (original, pristine condition) Bob Dylan - Blood on the Tracks (original, orig back cover) Grateful Dead - From the Mars Hotel (near mint) Grateful Dead - Wake of the Flood (flawless) Grateful Dead - Skullfuck (Skull and Bones) - ragged but vinyl good Jimi Hendrix Experience - Are You Experienced (not original but very early copy) Pere Ubu - Terminal Tower Frank Zappa - Sheik Yerbouti |
Re: The VINYL Thread!
The new Sleigh Bells LP is a pretty sweet package:
https://scontent-a-pao.xx.fbcdn.net/...70307788_n.jpg It's also meant to have a download code, although I didn't notice it in there, so I'll have to double check for it. |
Re: The VINYL Thread!
I sorta intended to buy Day of the Dead today but it wasn't in stock at the local place I visit. I can however report the clash boxset sounds amazing. Getting read to restore a couple of mono block amps with a friend of mine. Hopefully learn something from him. Just need a real pre amp now.
|
Re: The VINYL Thread!
The Clash box set looks cool, but I already have original issue releases of London Calling and Combat Rock. Also, is the debut album the UK or US version?
|
Re: The VINYL Thread!
FYI, the AOP13 soundtrack is up for pre-order at Death Waltz and Light in the Attic.

Re: The VINYL Thread!
Shit, I have the Death Waltz releases of II and III. I pretty much have to get this.

Re: The VINYL Thread!
I'm not finding any reviews online.

Re: The VINYL Thread!
^ Some unofficial reviews from a few folks over at Vinyl Collective that ordered one.
