found a reissue of Nirvana's Bleach that I decided to go with. It was that or The Goonies soundtrack for the time I had to browse

Mortte Jousimo 10.19.2014 12:51 AM

Johnny Cash: With His Hot & Blue Guitar!
the Blue Ridge Rangers
Ac/Dc: Let There Be Rock
Deep Purple: Made in Japan
Led Zeppelin: In Through the Out Door
Lou Reed: Street Hassle
J.J. Cale: Okie
the Ramones: It´s Alive
Scorpions: In Trance

About Nirvana, saw yesterday original Us Bleach in a pink vinyl...I think it was 120 euros.

Mortte Jousimo 10.19.2014 01:11 AM

Well, according to Discogs that Pink is repress from 1992:

and not really worth of 120 euros (well somebody´s asking 200 in discogs). You must be really careful these days & don´t automatically believe what sellers say, saw yesterday also bootlegs from Ac/Dc australian pressings...and that Johnny Cash that I bought has slightly different songs that the original album...noticed it just when I was home.

Reissue of #1 Record?
Is it recent/from this year?

Yesterday I bought three albums from local record store here in Helsinki:

Thurston Moore: The Best Day
Scott Walker & Sunn O))): Soused
Wilco: Yankee Hotel Foxtrot

All in vinyl format. Soused is probably the best album released in 2014!

I thought there was a Discogs thread too but can't find it so I started a new one.

My main reason for listing my entire collection is to help me stop buying duplicates. It will be a lot easier to check if I already own something now...

I got a couple more shelves of records to list then I'm done but it does take a long time to do. Some releases have over 100 different versions so it can be difficult working out which one you have.

I also have a pile of things not listed on Discogs so I will have to submit new entries for them...

2009 from what I found on Discogs http://www.discogs.com/Big-Star-1-Re...elease/2672717

I have seen Radio City lately as well, but #1 Record had more of the songs I wanted right away. Do miss "I'm In Love With A Girl" though.

Severian 10.21.2014 11:32 PM

No Energy is great, and I'm reminded of how much I love Unwound. Honestly I was so pumped for the release that I somehow convinced myself it was the final box of the reissue series.

But now I remember I still have one to wait for, and it covers the defining era of the band's history. But I can wait, because these reissues have been the most rewarding of all the reissues that have hit over the last several years.

Fucking ace, Unwound. Absolutely fucking ace.

Boards of Canada - Music Has the Right to Children, 2xLP reissue, about a year ago. The little woman and I played that all through our miserable Iowa winter. It got us through. "Yeah, that's right..."

Is it just me or would Every boards album be perfect for that except for Tomorrow's Harvest? That one is great... Like, really great. But it is depressing as fuck.

Sounds like it'd work just as well for a South Dakota winter for me.

The Seer - Swans
 


Fuuuuuuuccckkkkk. So awesome

tw2113 11.03.2014 02:09 AM

Radio City - Big Star
Grace - Jeff Buckley

Hopefully both are here really soon. I know Buckley should be here this week. Not sure on Radio City, AND I know of a local place that likely has a 1986 german pressing, which I'm pretty much planning to buy as well.

Rob Instigator 11.03.2014 10:10 AM

I also got New Order - Lowlife
 

used vinyl. awesome.

and the box set of the Fine Arts Quartet doing Bela Bartok's String Quartets.

Yeah, this has proven itself to be a classic with serious staying power despite the fact that it was released only 2.5 short years ago. It's great to see the future of noise rock being defined by such a classic band.

I don't really see To Be Kind generating the same steadily increasing fervor. By this point in 2012 it was game, set, match, SWANS. It's still a top ten record, though, and I'm going to have to go back and listen some more before making a final determination about where it ranks on my personal list.

gmku 11.06.2014 12:16 PM

Yeah, I like Tomorrow's Harvest, but it is hard to get through. Which is to say, I hear its greatness, but it's a real downer.

Children, on the other hand, is somehow uplifting.

So is Campfire Headphase. Maybe more chillaxed than uplifting, but whatever.
