I really like that refurbished cabinet! I'm planning on dropping a lot of money (for me anyways) on a locally made cabinet for my records on Thursday and this got me even more excited. Also I had the same haircut as your dog in middle school. Looks a lot better on them.

I finally pulled the trigger on a record cabinet on display at one of the record stores around me. Locally built and the guy was nice enough to drop it off. Absolutely love the new setup. Now to figure out how I'd like to organize the records.

Turbinosamente posted:gently caress now I feel bad for having given a copy of that Pointer Sisters record to a friend before I really got into records myself. I never actually listened to it, it was a record that you saw fairly frequently in the thrift store so I'd figured I'd find another and never did. My friend who's a huge fan got extremely excited when I sent him this and preordered immediately, thanks. I've never listened to them and missed the local shows but have been following Keith's Orange Milk record label just for the artwork he does.

CPL593H posted:I just generally like kooky wacky shows but I don't know much of their material and what I do know is from the 70s/80s. I was wondering whether or not its inaccessible to normies (or as much of a normie as I could ever be considered). The other day my brother called me to tell me that Mac Sabbath is coming here. Never seen Mac Sabbath but the opener Lung is pretty good if you dig cello + drum duos.

The biggest store near me has a limit of one copy per customer which has helped cut down on scalpers swooping in. I've only gotten in line for one RSD I think 5 years ago and felt it was a waste of time. Now I just stroll in later in the day and see what's left. That's how I picked up a Sugar Ray rerelease.

I've also noticed that record stores are putting out a lot of rare stuff they've collected between each event. Skeleton Dust Records is going to have 5 or so different Beatles bootlegs I've never seen before.

Turbinosamente posted:My record shop is continuing the estate sale ticket method and last time it was one copy of a record per person, so I bet that's in place as well. From now on I think I'm only going to do the 6 am line up for poo poo I really really loving want, which means I get to haul my rear end out of bed in mid July. Hence why I'm leaving tomorrow to fate and making my chance slimmer that I'll be tempted to buy a $100 box set of a pair of albums I already own. Omega Music had a copy of Aquarium Drunkards Lagniappe Sessions Vol 1 RSD release sit around for a year and marked down for clearance. It's ridiculous no one bought it; one of the best covers compilations I've ever heard.

Ballz posted:Update: I went over to the store I USUALLY hit up first on RSD where I was not number 15 in line but instead… 147. That's the great thing about the more obscure stuff, 90% of people flip right past it. I almost bought that Mulatu Astatke record, if it's still in a shop next week I'll probably grab it. I went to one shop around 2pm to see what was left. Didn't find a copy of the William Tyler release but I'm assuming it'll get rereleased at some point. Only RSD release I grabbed is the Salah Ragab - Egypt Strut; no idea what it sounds like but I'm sure I'll dig it.

Nothing better than getting a handful of records in the mail. Top left is the newest release from the Powers/Rolin duo comprised of a 12 string guitar and dulcimer. Here's a link: https://aepowersrolinduo.bandcamp.com/album/strange-fortune The other 3 were picked up for pretty cheap on Tompkins Square's Bandcamp sale last week.

Stan Taylor posted:I never really got the big box sets as anything other than fomo collector bait. The perfect gift for the superfan who for some reason has zero of their favorite artist’s albums. Anyway the dumbest record I own is the Rush Hour 2 soundtrack. The track list for Rush Hour 2 doesn't look that bad. Silliest record I own is Sugar Rays 14:59. Listened to it once for nostalgia and don't know if I'll ever pull it out again.

I heard a noisy track off of this Drained Connotation record on WFMU last week and had to get a copy. Ended up grabbing two Richard Bishop records from the discogs seller as well cause why not. I've only heard a few tracks from Sun City Girls so I'm looking forward to see what this stuff sounds like.

BigFactory posted:Patsy Cline might have died before Garth brooks was born, and Willie probably had a record deal already, so he’s definitely a generation or two removed. But I think you are misremembering how hokey some of Alan Jackson’s songs were. He had some good ones too, but it’s thin soup. Country music peeked with Ween's 12 Golden Country Greats.

CPL593H posted:If anyone is interested in country music that is actually country music get yourself a copy of Satan Is Real by the Louvin Brothers. It's a really good album and it has one of the best album covers of all time. I'll keep an eye out for one, seen the cover a ton online but never in a store. Top of my favorite country albums list is The Byrd's Sweetheart of the Rodeo and the Numero Group compilation Cosmic American Music.
