"I'm drowning for your thirst/Drowning for your thirst": The official WOWEE ZOWEE REISSUE anticipation thread

really only $12?! huh kinda want it now.

is Wowee Zowee on vinyl still 3 sides? The original release had etchings on the fourth side ...

I have what I thought was an original release (it's not the recent reissue anyway)...it's blank on side 4, no etching.

eh, maybe i'm thinking of something else ... i don't have it on vinyl, a friend did ...

tylerw, now you've got me confused. i know psychic hearts (released the same year?) had etchings on the fourth side, but now i wonder if wz had the drawing from the inside of the gatefold etched on the fourth side. of course i'm at work so i can't verify the latter.

maybe i'm thinking of psychic hearts? i'm confused too.

both had side 4 etchings.

thread title keeps beckoning

i never realised it had three sides! the flow of it kind of makes more sense to me now

lol mp3 generation

My copy side 4 has no etchings, it's just blank.

(purchased around 1998)

i bought mine the day it came out - no etching

Maybe only certain copies had the Steve Keane etching?

and says a bunch of Malkmus slogans.

yeah my copy does not have an etching, bought it when it came out

mysteeeeeerious

My copy had an etching when I bought it, but now the etching has vanished!

lol no etching on mine either

it's possible i was high as a teenager listening to this and etched something on it myself.

hahaha, i need to find my copy. pretty sure about this dudes!

OK thanks to ILM I am going to listen to this RIGHT NOW for the first time in years

You will NOT be disappointed.

it's a great record! i remember when it came out, my family was going to cooperstown to visit the baseball hall of fame. i made my dad stop at a random mall where there was a record store -- The WALL, I think? -- and I bought it there. So I kinda associate it with Willie Mays and Lou Gehrig and so forth. Memories.

I've definitely seen the etching and remembered it being a Steve Keane thing as well. But I don't own one. It might have been my college radio station's vinyl copy. Maybe it was only on promos?

it's weird that I can't google up anything about this existing

the one i just received from matador has a blank fourth side, no etchings of any kind

but this is obv a repress, has the new Low Price sticker that says free download on it

favorite pavement album no contest--and one of the great stoner records
