Where'd you get the money at 14? Or shouldn't I ask. I'm now picturing you as the Artful Dodger.

I love that album. Mine's clear blue vinyl. I love buying vinyl and thinking you just got the ordinary black vinyl and you open it up and it's a color. I've had mine since about 1987.

I got Zen Arcade when it came out in the UK (about 1985). I wasn't looking for it because I didn't think it would be released here, but I was looking through the World Music section and there it was!

Even if you figure only 10 bucks a piece, that's at least 230 bucks.

Of course, who am I to be critical? Just becuz I go in and only spend 10-30 bucks at a shot--and do that like every week. But that's different, right?;)

World Music! That's funny. Probably becuz of the "Zen."

There's a lot of coin to be made pushing drugs in junior high.

I think the umlauts must have confused them: World Music or Metal section?

^really good one^

I almost didn't buy it cuz the record store owner told me he hated it. I'm glad I didn't listen to him.

Working with my dad and saving up since Christmas.

It was less than $230. Most of it was used or for cheap at flea markets.

"Kitchen Archive Vol 3 - Amplified"

The SY tracks are great, likewise the Swans ones, and this version of Rhys Chatham's "Guitar Trio" reminds me of Aphex Twin's "Digeridoo".
