wonderful release by Death Waltz Records...

Geofferson

^ Excellent. How's the second record of movie queues sound? I plan to track one of these down on the aftermarket.

I picked up Death Waltz's edition of Halloween III at Amoeba last week. My first - and certainly not last - purchase of their releases. Very impressive. High quality stuff.

Supermallet

I got that release from ebay. Love the colored vinyl.

JayDerek

the second record is very good - honestly the set would be worth it even just for the first record...probably one of my favorite Carpenter scores.

Why So Blu?

That is a great looking vinyl.

Scored a bunch of stuff at the Solid Sound festival:

The Kinks - Arthur (original gatefold with pull out)
David Bowie - Hunky Dory (original textured cover with lyric sleeve - been looking for a good copy)
New York Dolls - S/T (it was cheap and clean)
King Crimson - Red (original and very clean)

NEW:
Low - The Great Destroyer
Foxygen - Take the Kids Off Broadway (had signed by band)

I'm thinking I should've gotten in on Mondo's Maniac (2012) vinyl because, even though the film wasn't good, the score is fantastic. Sounds like John Murphy meets Alan Howarth.

Why So Blu?

Did it sell out?

islandclaws

Is there anything Mondo that doesn't?

Why So Blu?

The last batch of vinyls lasted a bit. I know The Raid and Oblivion took about 2 weeks or so to sell out.

Supermallet

Nice find on Hunky Dory and NYD. I haven't been able to find a copy of the latter that wasn't a reissue.

JayDerek

yeah it did sell out for sure - later that morning.

The Maniac soundtrack is probably one of my favorite new scores in quite a while. I was able to snag one from Mondo but it hasn't shipped yet.

For those interested, Death Waltz Records announced last night that they were given permission to do another print run of The Fog soundtrack...though they won't offer the clear or black vinyl versions this time.

islandclaws

Might have to grab a new pressing for The Fog.

I also saw Death Waltz indicated they're doing Beyond the Black Rainbow, which was one of my favorite scores in recent years. And it's never had a proper release.

Supermallet

I will definitely grab Beyond The Black Rainbow. God that movie fucked me up.

Geofferson

I'll have to check that movie out. Liked what little I've heard of the soundtrack. Glad to hear there'll be a second pressing of The Fog. Picked up the Mondo release of Maniac as well.

I'm also expecting a copy of The Naked and Famous album to arrive any day now.

SoSpacey

Just got this for my birthday. Haven't had a chance to give it a listen yet.

Supermallet

Beyond The Black Rainbow is on Netflix.

CRM114

I'm not sure if this New York Dolls album is original or not. I'll have to look at it closer. It's not recent.

I have Beyond the Black Rainbow in my queue now. Thanks.


I picked up some new stuff today:

Robyn Hitchcock "I Wanna Go Backwards" - 8 LP set with signed poster, new - $40 - dude begged me to take it

Zappa/Mothers "Absolutely Free" - a bit on the fair side but original Verve vinyl cleaned up nice - incredibly great album

Jimi Hendrix Experience "Axis: Bold As Love" old thick Reprise, guessing original

Robyn Hitchcock "Eye" signed, 1990 Twin/Tone

and my add ons...

Joni Mitchell "The Hissing of Summer Lawns"
The Human League "Dare"

Supermallet

The Hissing of Summer Lawns is my favorite Joni album.

Absolutely Free is also incredible. "Brown Shoes Don't Make It" is anarchy in the best way.

CRM114

On a fluke, sitting in an old crusty bin, was The Kinks "We are the Village Green Preservation Society" mono reissue from Germany. Flawless vinyl, cover pretty good. Guy threw in a 12" by the Cure for a total of $6.

The New York Dolls album I bought last week is original, Mercury, with the lipstick logo labels.

Subhu

Yeah, I'm with rocket dog and crm114 on this.
You're bitching about the lead singer and guitarist for Sleater Kinney. And the commercial is obviously a parody poking fun at hipsters, you guys are idiots.

Supermallet

Ah, gotta love a new member making his mark by calling people idiots in his first post.

Perhaps this new member should read the forum rules before posting, the one that says no personal attacks?

Supermallet

Is this all from the same store? That place sounds like a goldmine.

Why So Blu?

Scooped me up Joe Jackson's "I'm the Man." Thanks to the thread for reminding me to get that. It's essential vinyl!
