And when I went to go check a local record store last month the only thing left of Weird Al's was a CD of Allapalooza with a cracked case. Dude's still popular. I mean I do not even listen to him enough to justify buying albums at even old normal prices, let alone now, but yeah I wouldn’t say no to a cheap copy of 3D or Alapalooza or whatever. hexwren posted:Get all their albums, they’ve a relatively small discography  All this Ween talk got me hankerin to show off my modest Ween collection    I guess I can see what  And I daren't neglect my CDs (did not bother to grab the disc-only copies of La Cucaracha and The Pod which came with the vinyl)  Observant readers may not the difference in fonts used between the CD and vinyl versions of Quebec.

It is Dean Ween doing heavier stuff. Honestly Ween is probaby one of the best bands out there, they can tackle any genre with ease. Chocolate and Cheese or The Mollusk are probably their most accesible.

Crazy that Ween's last record was 15 years ago and yet they seem to be more popular than they ever were. Those recent live reissues are on my local store's shelf and he remarked that there's this huge demand in store for Ween stuff. Particularly among young people, like teenagers...most of whom weren't even alive when quebec came out. We chatted about this for a minute and as I was leaving he got a phone call asking if they had any Ween in stock. It's unreal. What's the explanation for this? Did a song of theirs appear somewhere? Is the YouTube algorithm leading people to Ween? Is it just an insane amount of word-of-mouth and shitposting? I mean yeah it rules but what gives?

I'll poke around the Ween/Moist Boyz recs tomorrow, thanks all!Barry posted:Prices really are getting wild if stuff you couldn't pay people to take out of the used bins a few years ago are going for $100 for 15 records. Ha, I wouldn't know, I've only been into vinyl for about a year. The record store was closed that weekend, and they seem to sell faster than they can get "new" stuff in. I'm sure it would have been at least $30 cheaper to find them all on Discogs, but regardless, I'm still pretty pleased. (I'm also #blessed enough to have some disposable income right now.) Getting paid to take old records home sounds like a sweet gig.

Probably because of short supply and the general: Barry posted:Prices really are getting wild if stuff you couldn't pay people to take out of the used bins a few years ago are going for $100 for 15 records. Prices going nuts. All that's left on eBay and Discogs are the expensive copies and well at least I was able to get a small deal on it and it was mostly still sealed so it had the newness going for it. Easier to justify. This is kinda the problem I'm having with getting Signals. As far as I can tell Rush rereleased/remastered all their albums in 2015 on CD only. They have not rereleased albums on vinyl like the rest of the world. So I'm stuck looking at G or barely VG copies of a less popular album that people still want $40 for, taped up jackets and all, and just letting out a big long sigh.

Of course bitching on the internet brough up a decent listing on Ebay, but I can still easily be outbid on it. And in regards to clogging up the plants, are we we done reissuing Fleetwood Mac- Rumors? Surely there must be some color they have yet to do and clearly we must press more copies from here to the horizon just so every one in America can have two copies.

Read After Burning posted:I'm still awaiting the day that I find something at my local Goodwill that's cooler than my pristine copy of Branigan. I do find fun stuff here and there but the trick is that I go to Savers multiple times a week. Mostly I find nothing and it's all the same junk that's been sitting around. Sometimes I find old punk records, Blue Monday, or decent classic rock. Lately I've been trying to dig up Motown, girl groups, and soul records and have been finding things like that here and there. As much as I come off as a miserable dick I really do enjoy record collecting and I spend a lot of time on it. I'm reading about stuff on discogs just about every day. And it's always exciting to find something really cool and unexpected wedged in between a stack of moldy Lawrence Welk albums. Turbinosamente posted:Probably because of short supply and the general: You just have to set up want lists and check ebay and discogs A LOT if you want something for a reasonable price. Stuff comes up for cheap it just sells really fast when it does. It's a waiting game really. I'll occasionally cave and pay 40 bucks or something against my better judgement. I just consider it a tax on not being patient. I recently got a copy of Rembrandt Pussyhorse from an ebay seller for free because they told me they'd refund me if the record had a lot of audible scuffs and let me keep it. It's about a VG so it's not absolutely terrible. There are some honest dealers left buried under all the scalpers and speculators. Turbinosamente posted:Ahh, good to know.

I got a few of those only because that was the only copy of a thing I wanted at a shop. And yes I'm wholly aware that Rush is on the dad rock side of the equation, it's just funny which bands and labels jumped on the reissue train the most and for the longest.

There's nothing wrong with listening to classic rock, we just don't need any reissues of any of those albums ever again. My Lovely Horse posted:That's drat near those Depeche Mode singles boxes though A trend I've noticed in the last several years is popular albums being released as box sets containing a bunch of 7" (or occasionally 10") discs that break up the album into singles. And they're always considerably more expensive than just buying the normal LP. I don't understand why anyone would want this.

For those of you who alphabetize your collection, with records from the same artists, do you organize those alphabetically, or by release order. Currently I alphabetize mine by artist, then organize each record by alphabetical order as well.
