I Love Vinyl! Recent Haul/Score/Purchase Thread (2010)

Ha! Well most USA DJs are philistines. And woah, just listening to the LP now and there are other worthwhile sounds on it too.

today

"I'd buy that for a dollar!" Great purchases for a buck or less

I just realized I prob wouldn't have ever heard of half those albums if it wasn't for USA DJs... doy. I guess I was just thinking of Lowest Common Denominators. LCDDJs.

third ear band - alchemy (VG+ uk orig)
elton john s/t
roy harper - once upon a time in england
pat kilroy - light of day (boot)
julian priester - polarization

Meat Puppets II
Hall and Oates Private Eyes
Grand Funk Live Album
Arlo Guthrie Hobo's Lullaby (this is kind of gorgeous)
The Go Go's Vacation (a gift for my new roommate who expressed a strong desire to hear this particular album for some reason)
I only spent thirty bucks on all that. Weird haul, but satisfying. The Grand Funk is super clean and was only 3 bucks.

<3 Grand Funk Live.

VERY excited about this (like seriously unspeakably excited), but am wondering where i can find more info about the pressing? all i can find is this (http://catalog.dclibrary.org/vufind/Record/ocm20750538/Details) and there's a question mark by the year.

oddly, i found the 5-volume child ballad book set in my school's library this week, so i am taking that as a sign that i was meant to buy this in spite of how expensive it was. also tomorrow is my birthday. clearly, i was meant to have these records.

Bitchin Bajas - Tones & Zones
Majeure - Timespan Remixes

No record stores in my neighborhood since Something Else closed a couple years ago so I'm limited to Beacon's Closet's (actually pretty decent) selection of reissues and comps. Yesterday's haul:

Bloodstains across the midwest
Fight on, your time ain't long
The golden dawn - power plant

Power Plant is a nice psych record.

yeah it's cool! listened this morning. I had seen it there before but was put off by the album cover (kinda cheesy)

bloodstains across the midwest is great too, tbh.

joe south - don't it make you wanna go home
doors - waiting for the sun (lol doors kick)
badfinger - straight up
inner dialogue LP (re-buy)
john renbourn - faro annie (spare copy, a buck. thought my man keegan needed it but he's already got one.)

felt -- space blues 12"
felt -- the final resting of the ark 12"
felt -- rain of crystal spires 12"

bill orcutt -- one-sided tour 12" (yessssss)
moon duo -- catch as catch can 7"
electric bunnies -- pretty joanna 7"
annie -- anniemal 2LP
ariel pink -- FF>> 2LP

Wow, those collections of Childs ballads look cool -- did you find out more about them?

I got a few heavy things this week:

High on Fire - Blessed Black Wings
Mastodon - Leviathan
Sunn 0))) - Domkirke (a quite inexpensive copy)

and some non-heavy stuff:

Roky Erickson - True Love Cast Out All Evil
Wooden Shijps - Vol.2

Finally landed some of the Neu! reissues:

Neu!
Neu! 2
Neu! 75

Not bothering with '86

are they sellin those outside of the box??

My local record shop certainly has the individual LP reissues for sale.

Can't blame you for not bothering with '86... (xxpost)

yeah it SUCKS

note that if you've only heard neu! 4 you haven't really heard '86

i guess i mean this one

http://www.eggcityradio.com/sharity/neu72.jpg

ah yeah that's pretty marginal

Yeah they are selling them from outside the box - nothing around here in NZ tho I had to order mine from the UK - only 11 quid each tho (before postage). I got mine from here tho I imagine they're available at other stores. Nice packaging too - gatefold sleeves & white vinyl for the first 2.

wowow gotta get the good ones

my Rondos Destroy The Entertainment 2lp arrived today!

Also got the new Klaxons & new Sleigh Bells 7"s

hehe goodbye any Neu!-related credibility!
