Just picked up a 2013 RSD release of the most recent wire album. Also got some Mission of Burma and Swell Maps. Kinda getting annoyed that my Screaming Females Live at the Hideout hasn't gotten here yet even though I pre ordered the loving thing.

I did!  The Roots record at the bottom is my wife's, because she has better taste in music than me. I went out with a few specific things in mind: David Axelrod's first two albums, anything Townes Van Zandt, an LP or 45 that has the Ike and Tina Turner song "Too Many Tears" and 10cc's first two albums. As you can see, I was only successful with the last choice. 10cc is a weird, eclectic little pop-rock band that was pretty obscure in the States, although to my understanding they were fairly popular in Britain back in the 70s (feel free to correct me, Brit goons). I learned about them a while ago after they were sampled on J Dilla's Donuts and genuinely loved "The Worst Band in the World." Incidentally, I did find a bunch of Townes Van Zandt 45s, but they were priced about $30 each which is kind of ridiculous.

They were extremely popular in Australia like many other bands that were unloved in their homeland. They spun off Godley and Creme who were even more obscure.

This song is great. I'd been aware of 10cc but never really looked into them. I think now I'll have to.

To me, like Supertramp, 10cc were a decent band that was hamstrung by being too clever for their own good. I like a number of their singles, and even Godley & Creme's "Five O'Clock in the Morning" is just a hair's breadth away from being a really great single (decent musically, poo poo lyrics.) In the US, they're mainly known for The Things We Do For Love (with a few people remembering I'm Not In Love and a few other bits)

I'm not particularly into Jack White, but this record reaches new heights of gimmickry and practically demands a spot on my shelf. Except I can't play that 78rpm hidden track  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-8B-_Jq2ro

stay depressed posted:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slap-a-Ham_Records Yeah those are good examples. I put out a 7" that plays from the outside in and inside out, meeting in 2 locked grooves in the middle. And clear vinyl, with circuit board and windshield glass cover. That was 18 years ago. I'm biased but I think it's cool. Aardvark, the guys who do all the fancy masters for RRR did it. E- also Runzelstirn and Gurglestock did some interesting stuff, I think they had their own lathe.

People getting mad about things they don't need to buy and things that don't affect anything. I don't buy this stuff, but I like to see how far Jack White takes vinyl records as far as cramming "features" into the disc itself. It's fun.

If this stuff has been done, its the same shame of a bigger artist doing something that an artist hardly anyone knows about already did 3,000 years in the past. Its not like its common knowledge that a noise-specific record store was playing around with vinyl in similar ways before Jack White has. Sorry to steal away the very little thunder that RRRecords had

what those labels did is more interesting to discuss than the latest jack white pressing chock full of well-trod gimmicks. its cool that you think it's fun to see jack white specifically doing this but i think it's fun to talk about the people who already did and don't get talked about as much. maybe a couple people who read it will visit rrr or buy something online or just think ron is a cool and clever guy. that's valuable and i'll poo poo on jack white every day if it means one more person will know what rrr is stay depressed fucked around with this message at 20:31 on May 6, 2014 |

The song on the center label is pretty cool. So is the spinning "hologram." edit:  in the video he says the matte side "looks like a brand new 78 might have look like in 1978." Who the hell was putting out 78s in the late 70s?

Pressing things between steel plates or packaging them in American flags or plastic bags is still a gimmick.

yea i never said they weren't gimmicks. just more interesting. what's that have to do with anything? i don't really see what making that point accomplishes?

Its your opinion, but I cannot honestly see how it would be cool to have steel plates, a plastic bag, or an American flag than to actually have a record that plays music in a bunch of weird ways as well as just have the regular album included. At least Jack White's gimmicks have some practicality except for the liquid disc. Oh neato, I get to throw away this plastic bag or find out where to recycle these steel plates or put this American flag in my closet.
