Official CD/LP purchases thread

[greghead]

Will do. It's pretty out there but kind of cool. Especially considering these weren't art students in NY or London, they were just a bunch of weird teenagers from San Jose. They played only one official gig and only pressed 500 copies of this record in 1971.


EDIT: We'll definitely have to, ah, medicate ourselves prior to listening.

[bmack86]

I can tentatively agree to that. Damn interviews make it somewhat tough, but I can sweat it out.

[JorgeC]

How was the show?

Holy Ghost was great, the crowd was way into it. Basically a much less drunk version of Disclosure the week before (in terms of dancing/crowd control/politeness).

I've only seen them at festival settings, glad I finally saw them at a smaller venue.

and to stay on topic

Surfer Blood - Pythons LP (Rhino had it on sale for 13.99, thought that was a bargain)

[greghead]

I can tentatively agree to that. Damn interviews make it somewhat tough, but I can sweat it out.

Oh right. Cardio & b vitamins are your friends. Also, the stuff is alcohol soluble, so flooding your bloodstream with strong liquor might help as well ...

RSD Black Friday releases

Life of Agony - River Runs Red is coming out on vinyl for the first time! Shit yeah.

[JorgeC]

I'm in for Foals and Nirvana. Possibly QOTSA and Flaming Lips, we'll see how they are pricewise closer to Black Friday.

[greghead]

I'm definitely in for the Dead and the Stones. The Dylan triple-LP looks kind of cool, I'm buying depending on price & tracklist.

[bmack86]

That Dead record looks very intriguing. Acoustic 1970. Hmm.

I'm doubting I'll actually get anything, but I really want the Life of Agony, Stone Temple Pilots and Roy Orbison releases.

[Miroir Noir]

[greghead]

Oh, yeah the Orbison box looks great. Probably out of my price range, though.

I have a September 1970 acoustic set at Fillmore East that's pretty fucking good, I'm really looking forward to that release.


Thanks Mitch. I have Biograph and a whole host of greatest hits & bootlegs and other shit. I'll pass.

[chiapet]

Yea, I'm telling myself I don't need that STP release...

[bmack86]

Agreed. Life of Agony is just killing me though. That's such an awesome, heavy album and it's never been on vinyl before.

[greghead]

Yea, I'm telling myself I don't need that STP release...

Ha. I'm loathe to admit to myself that I want it, but I do. Guilty pleasure.

More mail order stuff, plus an awesomely funky Alan Parsons Project record my friend turned me on to and gave me a copy of.

Aquarian Foundation - Language of the Hand
Delroy Edwards & Funkineven - X/XX
Eliphino - I Don't Care

Seriously, check out the Alan Parsons Project record. Super awesome.

[bmack86]

I'll toss that on tomorrow. I inherited about 6 Alan Parsons records when I first started collecting.

[xanman86]

Anyone know where I can buy the new Sky Ferreira album?

[JorgeC]

out of the back of her Corolla parked in front of the Coffee Bean on Melrose??

[xanman86]

I tried Best Buy and my local record shop with no luck. Did it get pulled completely because of the cover?

[nathanfairchild]

I doubt the cover mattered. My local shop was selling No Love Deep Web without any issue.

[xanman86]

I doubt the cover mattered. My local shop was selling No Love Deep Web without any issue.

Possibly. I'd love to get my hands on a physical copy especially if Gaspar Noe took the cover photograph.

Decent pickup day nonetheless, Reflekter on CD from Best Buy for the "art cards" and the vinyls of the new Touche Amore and CHVRCHES albums.

[FEELS]

CD:

Arcade Fire - Reflektor

[FEELS]

Also, I'm SUPER fucking stoked because I finally purchased a phono pre-amp and bookshelf speakers for my turntable (music hall mmf 2.2) with birthday money!!! After talking to the dude at Needle Doctor for a bit, I decided on the Musical Fidelity V90-LPS. He said you really can't get a better one for even twice that price. As for speakers, I preordered the Audioengine 2+ Speakers that come out on Friday. Slight improvements on the already acclaimed original 2's. Can't wait for them to arrive!!

[nathanfairchild]

We have the same turntable.

[FEELS]

How do you like it? I've had it for about 6 months but still haven't been able to play anything on it haha

[nathanfairchild]

I love it. Sound quality is great. I bought it along with this Music Hall PA1.2 MM/MC Phono Pre Amp and I haven't had any issues so far.

Mondo is releasing the score to Halloween tomorrow.

Tomorrow, we release John Carpenter’s legendary soundtrack for HALLOWEEN as a double LP pressed on 180 Gram black vinyl (with randomly inserted Orange vinyl) cut at 45RPM for optimal sound quality. The track listing contained within, the most comprehensive there is, has never been released on vinyl before, and features brand new artwork by Phantom City Creative.

Looks super nice: http://blog.mondotees.com/2013/10/30...-on-sale-info/
