uh, yeah.

a 1968 single that beats anything else they released by about three years (and beats their first album by five years!). and it's pretty damn good, too.

Are these dudes thinking 70s vinyl + white label + promo sticker = expensive artifact? Cause I have record shelves FULL of them I would sell to them at 1/10 the price.

Like, I know from years of reading Goldmine and seeing "WLP" like some badge of honor, but are there collectors that care about that anymore?

that madrigal record is a trip and a half. those guys were well ahead of their time. 'stoned freakout' is definitely one of the few tracks that totally lives up to its title

an acquaintance of mine told me the other day i should check that place out. what's their deal

arby's, Thursday, 2 September 2010 22:30 (2 years ago) Permalink

they sell ridiculously overpriced trashed crap on ebay, don't know if the same applies to their store

do you know sixty (electricsound), Thursday, 2 September 2010 22:31 (2 years ago) Permalink

yeah i'm wondering about the store

arby's, Thursday, 2 September 2010 22:32 (2 years ago) Permalink

browsed their website for pretty everyday records that i own and still have the price stickers on 'em. 3 to 5 times what i paid for the stuff at Cheapo and wherever. dumb.

arby's, Thursday, 2 September 2010 23:15 (2 years ago) Permalink

no sorry it's more like 2-3 and in a couple cases 4X but like still.

arby's, Thursday, 2 September 2010 23:22 (2 years ago) Permalink

holy crap that madrigal record went for $5100

buying a sealed record for that much seems crazy to me. what if its warped?

He/she (OK, he) will never listen to it so that's irrelevant.

sorry i was late on this but the store is even worse than they are on ebay...it seems like it's basically just a way for them to clear out all the garbage vinyl they acquire when they buy out collections and estate sales...so they ebay the valuable stuff...then put out all the beat up shit and charge like $6 for dollar bin shit....

so yeah i guess if you want to spend like $5 on a beat to shit Tommy Bolin record that doesn't even have a sleeve it's the place to go

^^ the worst kind of record store

Aqua Buddha (herb albert), Tuesday, 14 September 2010 21:08 (2 years ago) Permalink

Ha ha. Was considering visiting this place last time I was in mpls, but was way turned off by their $$$ vibe. Thankfully there's way better record stores there - Hymies for one.

barry leavitt, Tuesday, 14 September 2010 21:10 (2 years ago) Permalink

yeah hymies is nice, total old school weirdo joint

i really love roadrunner for value, smaller but really well curated and always a lot of turnover and new shit...

Am I nuts, or is this excessive?

(Especially when he's got 6 available. Really?!)

is that something that people want really badly? i don't even know. i had that book that they used for that cover. i think someone actually bought it because of the album cover. should have priced it higher i guess.

Yeah, Oneida had at least a box of these last time they toured the UK.

Question & Answer
Q: "you write: You should buy this even though you probably don't deserve it. It will give you something to aspire to in life. And might actually make you a better person." I assume you means th3 potential buyer is a complete and utter duffer because actually the well-tuned piano is rather dull and tedious. it only retains its mystique by being almost totally unavailable. listen to it! give me charlemagne palestine anyday.
A: I have listened! Not to this copy. To another copy. On top of a mountain that was haunted by the ghosts of Ichabod Crane and Pat Metheny. The wind howled and the wine flowed. I learned how to pray that day... But, yeah, Palestine is a major block rocker. No doubt about it.

i'd say it will end between $240-275, but if a bidding war starts, who knows.
i forget what i paid for mine. i traded a rare john cage LP on dial and like $20 or something.

not everything is a campfire (ian), Friday, 26 November 2010 02:18 (2 years ago) Permalink

i'm gonna say upwards of $400 -- popsike has them going for more than that, even recently.
