I'm getting the impression it's a courting ritual. You respond by framing some albums you like and hanging them on the wall. That's when the magic happens. petit choux fucked around with this message at 06:54 on Jan 19, 2022 |

Off the top of my head my doubles are: Jimi Hendrix - Band of Gypsys Diver Down - Van Halen Tonight's the Night - Neil Young Hallowed Ground - Violent Femmes and some Dylan records that are in my "To Trade In" crate in the basement that I replaced with the mono box Out of 2000+ that's not a very significant amount

I have one single double, of Billy Ocean's "Suddenly". I bought it on accident; they have two different covers!

I'll buy an extra copy of Neil Young's Tonight's The Night anytime I see an affordable one for sale. Great to give away to friends who don't have it.

if I got doubles they probably arent the same pressing or if they're the same pressing I havent gotten around to A/B'ing them to keep the best one.

Doubles are nice to have because every so often, someone I know will get into record collecting and I can give them all away.

Read After Burning posted:That "mental orgasm" feeling of coming across the original song that's sampled in something you frequently listen to? Amazing. Unmatched. Just a full-body wave of "Ahhhh!" and then relief. Aside from being a fantastic album in general, my mind was blown when I was listening to Ella in Berlin and realized that a sample from that version of How High the Moon was used in a Shpongle track.

Do record store day ambassadors really do anything though? The only reason I knew Triumph was one a couple years ago was because I was looking into the box set they put out for it. It's a promo opportunity and no more.
