The best kind of record store clerk is the one who gives you a kind of scowl when you walk around his store for the first time and get that it's just overpriced dadrock and Goodwill swill and leave after 3 minutes.

Why can't more places have turntables for listening before you buy? A place in portsmouth has like six boxes of "punk(?)" records, all artists I've never heard of, some really weird ones too (like one white heavy 10" that was just folded between cardboard with a bunch of ink scribbles on it, or an LP in a plain gray sleeve with just a number on the back, all labels just Side A and B with some numbers. what could it be??). I wanted to dive in and find out, but $4 for who knows what ain't my game.

Ron Burgundy posted:This. Yeah that sounds pretty scary. I think NH record stores (all of them I know anyway, I've never been in one that had a player) just need to buckle the gently caress down and realize that just opening a store full of your parent's old records isn't simply the key to jumping on this Vinyl Bandwagon.

Well, just goes to show, I e-mailed the owner and asked if they had any plans to put a table out, he just kinda went "hm sounds like a good idea!" and now there's one out there. Cool

well I guess the dude at the store meant "yeah we play our instore music on a table, so there is one in the store" kinda thing, so I just blindly bought two things that I have no idea what they are, just looked cool Process -- "Regeneration" The O Voids -- s/t

Snowy posted:Yeah, me too, I love checking out thrift shops while on vacation. You really get a feel for the character of the area. In California I found a lot of old Environments records- still trying to find the whole collection- and in far northern Finland they had boxes of cheesy 80s euro disco. Ahaha, this was given to me as a gag gift once. I forgot it in my car and it melted to hell though. Mitch Miller's sing alongs are pretty prevalent around here, as well as Chirstmas albums, songs by Broadway performers, compilations from the 60's of "Song's the Whole World Loves" etc., and of course Streisand/Bee Gees/BARRY MANILOW/Chuck Mangione/Hank Williams/Lionel Richie.

I finally got around to hearing that whole record the other day, aside from some tracks being really meandering and long it's pretty great. e: not gonna spend 30$ for it, but it's cool that it's getting a (small) reissue anyway. doug fuckey fucked around with this message at 02:02 on Sep 29, 2011 |

Found Tar's debut "Roundhouse" in a bin, $3. Pretty neat. My go-to store is having an on/off sale on all physical media just to try and move it all, it's pretty great. It's all this one dudes personal collection mostly, and he has got to have over 10,000 records easily.

new store opened up in town, they're clearly still getting everything set up, but I did find Big Black's Racer-X (92 reissue) and Headache EPs. Should be getting a big buncha punk/hardcore in soon that I'm going to dig into!!

While good, Gish isn't the premiere SP release, it's the following one, Siamese Dream. I think they remastered that one too.

Don't let 'em get too hot, and although your older records are probably gonna have ring stresses all over the cover anyways, store them upright like in a milk crate so that doesn't happen.

yeah not to derail record collecting talk too much here but the idea that an album is less a "collection of songs set down on record" than "a single flow of songs in particular order with possible narrative" is a very new and western rock oriented idea, so don't hang on that too too much.

I'm on the West Coast for a minute here and dang are the stores around here so much more diverse and their price points slay stuff from back home. I found many records that would normally be in store windows back East with $35 tags for $9.99 over here.

Skeletone also has bins of $4 "punk" records that are great to buy impulsively because of their covers. I got some cool stuff I've never heard before doing that (also, a Tar record, which was neat) is that RS Butler's place actually worth it? I figured it would just be regular old antique store swill...
