there was one time where i considered buying a copy of Abbey Road, but then I really thought about how often I'd listen to it and decided against it.

You end up with tons of Beatles records when you buy out old peoples record collections.

I like buying the more worn down copies for cheap (<$10) since the pristine copies are very expensive thanks to collectors. They’re good for listening to with kids.

i wish i had a chance to buy more used records, but the majority of what I can get down here is either new and obviously expensive, used and astonishingly overpriced, or used and absolute garbage: poor condition records of music several rungs down the ladder from AM gold.

incoherent posted:Got a printing error release (a side is printed on both sides) album and debating to swap out. Would an error like that be more valuable? Most misprints really aren't worth that much, people like to think that they are, but for the most part, it's just a bad copy. Misprints can be valuable in some circumstances: 1. They denote an original copy. 2. There's something interesting about the misprint (they put the wrong version and now you have something you can't readily hear). 3. There's something about the misprint that makes it interesting. Otherwise, you got a copy that doesn't appeal to normal collectors because they want the album. And sure, maybe you can sell it to somebody as a really rare misprint for a lot of money, but it's also going to take a lot of work to sell it.

Counterfeit copies of classic rock albums are very common. If you find the original 1970 pressing of The Man Who $old the World it's almost certainly a counterfeit. I have one. It sounds like garbage. I had that Let it Be bootleg too. It's easily identifiable because the labels are on the wrong sides and the colors on the cover are washed out.

I somehow looked up Mexican Summer to see if there was a repress of Connan Mockasin's Jassbusters the moment they were testing a new listing for a Jassbusters repress and they sent me the first copy hot off the presses

I recently upgraded my cartridge to an AT-VM95ML and while it's for the most part been working just fine, I've recently found some records begin to skip constantly at the end of a side where they didn't before. I tried redoing my tracking force weight (currently right around 2 grams) and the anti-skate but that doesn't seem to have made a difference. I also double checked the cartridge alignment and it looks good. Any suggestions?

The only misprint I have off the top of my head is a Disreantiyouthhellchristbastardassmanx 7” that was supposed to be single sided but has Louis Armstrong on the B side. They’re all like that, tho

I accidentally got a copy of Split Enz - True Colors that's missing the laser etching on one side. Doesn't affect the music at least and it's not like my player is in a place where I can take advantage of it anyways. It shares the shelf with The Who bootleg I've never bothered to listen to and my Ognir Ratts album which was a surprisingly decent quality bootleg.

So one of my favorite artists, Nick Rattigan, is dropping an indie film tonight, with a vinyl pre-order tie-in (as well as cassette and CD). You have to buy a ticket to be allowed to stream. I know nothing about the film, but he's the sort of artist I'd support regardless, y'know? So, who's Nick? He's part of the duo that makes Surf Curse: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GO1OZB0UMY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVolCmyMUJw Current Joys is his solo project https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1h1AOeVQ38 and my favorite song off the new album https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEuQFXpjMj8 Nostalgia4Dogges fucked around with this message at 17:25 on May 19, 2021 |

zaepg posted:Anybody else like this album? It's a childhood nostalgia buy mainly. love it - idk if this is the recent press but it actually sounds quite great on wax. it's really crisp. I have all the readily available TMBG albums, minus the kids ones - I'm pretty surprised at how good their modern ones are. The Else, Nanobots, Phone Power, and I Like Fun are as good as anything they did honestly RC and Moon Pie posted:Picked up ELP's Tarkus and The Moody Blues' Days of Future Passed for a combined funny, I just listened to this a couple days ago - I have an original copy (I think it was my grandmas) and even though it doesn't sound great there's something really cool about the design aesthetics of pre-1969 stuff. I actually love listening to the Moodies because their music has so little relevance today - it's not like Yes or King Crimson or even ELP where there are still bands trying to imitate them today, the Moodies just could not evolve into the 70's and god bless 'em for it. just pure hippie dipshit music. I actually find DoFP to be one of the weakest of their classic albums, but man...the second side is so good. lmao at these orchestral interludes though

The whole Every Good Boy album is good, Just a Singer in a Rock and Roll Band moves, Wildest Dreams is a perfectly fine 1986 comeback single. They weren’t King Crimson but that’s a high bar.

Does anyone know if the versions of the songs on the B Stiff comp are featured on Hardcore Devo? Other than B Stiff and Social Fools which I am already sure are different versions. This seems like a Caligulamprey question. Get platinum so I can message you about this!

Mongoloid is the same. It sounds mixed or remastered a little different, but I only have an old mp3 rip of the EP to go off of. Jocko Homo, Be Stiff, and Social Fools are all very different on Hardcore - definitely older versions. And Satisfaction and Sloppy are not on Hardcore. Off the top of my head, I don't think a rougher version of Mongoloid exists before that single release. EDIT: since we're talking about early Devo and I have nowhere else to post this, Bob Lewis dropped a holy grail of sorts on youtube last month - a nearly complete recording of their 2nd show ever, from 1974. I've been hyped about it for a month now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDNPe8u_3eM wa27 fucked around with this message at 01:53 on May 20, 2021 |

And I've been wanting to mention for ages to somebody, BTW, that the later Devo sound, the sort of bad futuristic pop, I was just skipping around on some old thrift store records when I started listening to some "disco" album by like Enoch Light or Sy Zentner, and I was pretty astounded at how similar it was to the general late Devo sound.

I really like the moodies (my first concert ever, in a cow pasture somewhere in southeastern new york state) and they have a lot of great songs, but they've got a couple tunes where I'm like "why did you let this get released" 22,000 days, off long distance voyager, is possibly one of the worst songs I've ever heard

I've never been able to sit through Smoothnoodlemaps or Total Devo. Not much for Shout, either. I like guitar Devo the best.  Oh man, I bought a ticket to Pitchfork this year and it don't feel real. Can't wait to jump into some shows.
