I saw a test pressing of Busta Rhymes – Party Is Goin' On Over Here in a store and had to get it just so I could have one, those are rare-ish right?

That Nothing album is alright. If it's like 10bux might be a good grab.

screaden posted:Rarest for me was some TISM albums, the Collected Recordings was from Collectors Corner in Melbourne for 40 bucks about ten years ago, the records weren't technically from a shop, but from a dude who would buy up random lots from estates and old radio stations and stuff to resell from his garage, got them also for about 40 bucks for both. Discogs has median price for Truckin Songs at $84.62, no sales history for the others. Fun fact, one of the pressings for Truckin Songs had all 4 sides (purposely) sealed so you had to use a box cutter to open it up. That's fuckin' cool. My one claim to 15 minutes of fame was creating the TISM Eurovision petition, which was both the dumbest and best thing I've worked on.

I binge watched The Defiant Ones yesterday and would definitely recommend it for anyone, not just fans of rap and hip-hop. The record store I usually check out once every couple weeks happened to have a brand new sealed copy of The Chronic digitally remastered and I had to grab it. Its hard for me to believe that this album came out in 1992. From The Defiant Ones I found out that one of Dre's biggest early influences was Kraftwerk and so I also grabbed a copy of Electric Cafe that I found. Pretty stoked with the haul even though it was only 2 records!

I was pretty excited to see them in the bundle, when he told me the price I really had to play it cool because those prices are an absolute steal for them. That petition got a surprising amount of traction, it was all over my facebook for a couple of weeks. Damian Cowell even responded to it on his facebook page.

I am really into the idea of these Bowie boxes, but I can't afford them. I would goddamn luxuriate in every single record from needle drop to pickup. I just am not in the appropriate tax bracket for box sets.

I really wish they would just release the rarities discs by themselves because I already have all the albums that are in them, but I guess if they did that then hyperfans wouldn't shell out 300 bucks for a bunch of poo poo they already have.

They'd actually do a collection nicely for me, because sadly I only own one Bowie record on vinyl. I mean, Station to Station slays, but I want the other records, too.

this one is good and cool though because good luck finding good copies of Low, Heroes, Lodger, and Scary Monsters without having to get bootlegs or spend a lot for a used record unseen through amazon or whatever. edit: of course they'll break those out, eventually CHICKEN SHOES fucked around with this message at 21:27 on Jul 14, 2017 |

Is this just since he died because I feel like none of those were ever really that expensive or hard to get. A few months back I got a pristine Japanese first pressing of Lodger for 30 bucks in a record store. But anyway, all of the box set albums from Five Years are available separately with the exception of the aforementioned rarities disc so I'm figuring the new box set will follow suit.

It's probably calmed down, I'm guessing, but with the sets coming out I just wait for those and stopped looking for any of the main albums

They are really really good. I can verify that statement. i have a copy of station to station from the remaster set and it sounds amazing. They even did the same thing those Zeppelin reissues/remasters did was remake the original packaging. I really appreciate these reissues keeping it true to the original release.

At shows I'm usually able to get an LP for $15 or so. I get most of my records at shows. My favorite is this 12 inch 45 that some local rock band put together.

or make friends with the record store clerks. if i pay in cash at this one spot, the dude will not charge tax and will round down if im under say $45, so I'd pay $40 in cash

There's a lot going on. Licensing fees, quality of production, potential sales versus standard costs, what they're willing to charge. People instantly think a record by David Bowie or the Beatles is worth a million bucks with deep gouges in it. So a new record for 30 is a steal!

I got a semi strange question: I have a couple older albums where the back of the outer jacket is printed upside down. Is there some sort of logic to this? Was it a thing back in the day?
