or even mention what records there are.

Mark G, Thursday, 27 November 2008 10:31 (fifteen years ago) link

8000 unsold copies of UV.

NickB, Thursday, 27 November 2008 10:35 (fifteen years ago) link

Glaswegian Prog anyone?

"I WAS BLOWN AWAY BY THE TOP QUALITY PROGRESSIVE ROCK SOUNDS CONTAINED WITHIN"

Le Bateau Ivre, Thursday, 27 November 2008 16:26 (fifteen years ago) link

Looks like a reproduction antique. I was in Glasgow in 1974 and I remember nothing of this lot.

Brother Belcher (Marcello Carlin), Thursday, 27 November 2008 16:28 (fifteen years ago) link

nah its the real thing, my brother knows the seller apparently.
heard this one Marcello? http://www.popsike.com/php/detaildata.php?itemnr=350044280224

zappi, Thursday, 27 November 2008 16:32 (fifteen years ago) link

Nope, "Captain Marryat" seems to me like a "Roadblock" situation.

Don't recall the second one but they were never on Thingummyjig so I'm sceptical. "The Big Red Bus" indeed.

Brother Belcher (Marcello Carlin), Thursday, 27 November 2008 16:49 (fifteen years ago) link

How easy could it be?

Make a prog album, get it pressed in Poland or somewhere, put one copy on e-bay, get three different people to bid it up to £20,000, wait until it gets onto Popsike as a matter of permanent record, then post another one on ebay.

^Wanna go in on a business partnership? Sounds like a plan to me.

ULTRA RARE PRIVATE PRESS 1978 SAN JUAN ISLANDS FREAK FOLK LP!

(freak folk is easier to fake than prog -- with prog you have to be able to at least pretend to play. mg + ee or whatever they're called seem to be able to get by fine with no discernible musical ability whatsoever.)

Well, I'm the mg, you can be the ee...

my husband just

Disappeared with out a trace we are still

trying to find him but it is not looking good and

I have to think of my children and christmas for

them so that is why these are for sale.

I am hoping for the return of my husband.

He's going to be angry when he finds his records are gone.

"Your records missed you! They went out looking for you! We haven't seen them since!"

Mark G, Friday, 19 December 2008 12:49 (fifteen years ago) link

What was she doing with that dipshit anyhow? A real man doesn't walk out and leave his Rebel MC records behind.

NickB, Friday, 19 December 2008 12:51 (fifteen years ago) link

seller never send bank details; after 6 weeks: "article is no longer available"

96.9% feedback? No wonder her husband walked out eh

shugarecords is a srs goldmine of ebay price insanity

cozwn, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 18:18 (fifteen years ago) link

first swans ep, a bargain at $184

I have this, and the production is MUCH, MUCH better than the CD reissue.

Dr More BS (libcrypt), Wednesday, 21 January 2009 18:53 (fifteen years ago) link

The CD reissue sounds like it's being played down a well.

Dr More BS (libcrypt), Wednesday, 21 January 2009 18:53 (fifteen years ago) link

how do you find out how much an LP is worth?

I don't know I'm afraid. That book always seems to be the one lurking on the shelf of used record stores though.
