Official CD/LP purchases thread

[ods..]

Yeah i'm in love with mine too. It's so classy looking and it sounds great. I've gotta upgrade the cartridge sometime but for now it's still excellent.

[FEELS]

Thanks Greg! ods... what pre-amp are you using? I've been looking at this but I'm wondering if I can get something just as good/better for less.

Infiniti - Game One
LTJ Bukem - Demon's Theme b/w A Couple of Beats
Sa-Fire - Let Me Be The One

Air - 10,000 Hz Legend
Horace Andy - In the Light
Black Flag - Damaged
Grooverider - Mysteries of Funk
Missy Elliott - Under Construction
Infiniti - Skynet

Mantronix - Music Madness
Sea of Cortez - Age of Anxiety
Various Artists - Backstreet Brit Funk - The Re-Edits

Plus some mail order:

7":
Terry Malts - Living with the Human Race b/w Over 21

LP:
Nu Sensae - Sundowning

CS:
Zig Zags - 10-12

Is Damaged the OG Unicorn press? You have a serious set of shit there. That Missy Elliot record is hot fire.

Is that the spot you told me to check out? If so, I grabbed a first press (Columbia 1A) of On The Corner by Miles Davis from there. That place is golden.

[bballarl]

No, this was a different spot. I had never heard of it before today. It was bizarre and completely awesome. I love Oakland.

Damaged is the first SST press unfortunately.

The biggest score was the Air record I think. I paid $10...looks like it is at least a ~$30 record on Discogs.

[bmack86]

Nice. That is a total score. That Missy record is a score too at whatever price you paid for it. I got super lucky and found it for $4 about a year ago.

And the Black Flag stuff doesn't matter unless you get lucky enough to get a copy with the Anti-Parent sticker on the front. I have a Unicorn copy without the sticker, so what's the point.

[bballarl]

I paid $7 for the Missy record. Cover is a bit messed up but the vinyl looks good. I'm stoked to finally own the Black Flag record.

I'm mostly excited about the jungle records. You never see that shit around here and to come up on the Grooverider album, Metalheadz box, Bukem 12" and the DJ Krush 12"s was huge. I'm also excited about the two Juan Atkins records.

[bmack86]

Was in Washington DC so I went to Som Records based off of a yelp search. picked up...

Love and Rockets - Express
Einsturzende Neubauten - Drawings of OT

and while I was looking through the Jazz section I saw a mono recording of a live performance of Coltrane and Dolphy. Picked it up on principle for $6 and now it looks like its worth some money. I cant find any info on it on discogs, but it is exactly this record.....http://www.dolphin-bbs.net/dynaduo.htm

While looking on popsike I found a copy that was sold for $450 that was exactly the same except with a slightly different picture on the cover. ( http://www.popsike.com/John-Coltrane...622503619.html) Anyone know anything about this? If it really is that valuable I'd like to sell it.

[Coachella Bound]

where was it pressed? and what color is the label on the wax.....???

[cansei de ser sexme]

Very little info on it because I think it is a bootleg recording of a radio broadcast. It says Ozone 10 and the color of the label on the wax is greenish. it says ralio kyabare ongaku in a banner on the top and " Juyo Rajio Proguramu! Rare Broadcast Performances" at the bottom.

You live in LA, right? Maybe call/take it to Atomic Records; those guys know a lot about jazz. EDIT - one of the guys who works there also goes to Japan a lot to buy, and since "Juyo Rajio Proguramu" sounds Japanese he might be a good person to ask.

Here is some more info on it - (if this is the same one)

John Coltrane - That Dynamic Jazz Duo! (Ozone 10)
John Coltrane (soprano saxophone, tenor saxophone) Eric Dolphy (alto saxophone, bass clarinet, flute) McCoy Tyner (piano) Jimmy Garrison (bass) Elvin Jones (drums)
"Birdland", NYC, February 9, 1962

- Mr. P.C.

- Miles' Mode (The Red Planet)

- My Favorite Things

** also issued on Session Disc 114 entitled "Hooray For John Coltrane". Affinity (E) AFF 79 entitled "Live At Birdland Featuring Eric Dolphy".



Just from a bit of research it looks as if it was only pressed in the US and Japan. The US version goes for anywhere from $25 - $60, but the Japanese one is deff worth a lot more. Great find.

AKA anyone want to buy a dollar bin record for $30?

[bmack86]

But it MAY have been used to create a sample on one of his thousands of productions.

[greghead]

Man I love this album; I was just listening to it on Saturday.

Man. This record is really good. I had no idea, I'd never listened to them before.

[Larry Farnsworth]

Just arrived:

Ghost - Opus Eponymous

Ghost is fucking amazing. How's this sound?

Just picked up last weekend:

Bonobo - Black Sands
Burial - Untrue, Truant EP
James Blake - Enough Thunder
Yeasayer - Odd Blood, Fragrant World

[bmack86]

Ghost is fucking amazing. How's this sound?

It's badass. The US version was only pressed on picture disc, so I tracked down a US seller with the European version. It's really bass-y and full of satan. I love it.

[nosurprises12]

Man. This record is really good. I had no idea, I'd never listened to them before.

[IceyHotshot]

LP + CD:

Colin Stetson & Mats Gustafsson - Stones
Fire! Orchestra - Exit!

Oh Rune Grammofon, how I love you so.

[greghead]

Ha. Very serious. I'd heard Love Shack and Rock Lobster, but that was about it. I only bought it because of a comment Bryan made not long ago about the guitar playing. A really fun, engaging record with solid playing. Well worth the $.95 they were charging.

[chiapet]

Wow. Really? I would have played that at record club if I'd known. I may have to look deeper through my collection for next week.

I've been really good! I haven't purchased any records in ages! (The Aphex Twin ones were ones I'd pre-ordered in September or October).

[woogie846]

I scored an original test pressing of Babatunde Olatunji's Drums of Passion from Permanent Records today! So stoked...

[knytt]

$20 well spent:

Husker Du - New Day Rising
Simon & Garfunkel - Parsley Sage Rosemary & Thyme
Neil Young - Harvest
