I still buy CDs but im starting to get into Vinyl. CDs are cheap right now and you can rip them in a better format/quality than what you can stream or buy online generally. Did anyone else get anything good from Half Price Books 50% off coupon on Saturday? Here's what I picked up for $3.50:

Got my copy of Lost Themes in the mail today! This is the first LP I've ever bought that was made after 1989 and I can't wait to listen to it. Came with a code to download the MP3s too so that was nice.

MMD3 posted:well poo poo... apparently I already missed out on the special edition vinyl colors of the new John Carpenter album. Still might have to pick this up I pre-ordered that album the second I heard it was available and still missed out on the limited colored versions so don't feel bad. It's a fantastic album btw.

It finally came! After months of waiting, 3 weeks shipping from England, a little dinged up and with a torn inner sleeve. But it made it! Limited Green vinyl signed by all 4 members and hand numbered to 500.     The CD is going to my brother for his birthday. Drummer quit the band before that one could be signed.

Which is even more hilarious in the flesh for what it's worth. Anyway here's my pull for this week. What did you pay for Plastic Ono Band? I'm looking for a nice copy of that myself.

They apparently used the money from their Kickstarter to open a record store. Here is some video footage someone took. It's easily the most embarrassing record store I have ever seen. I bet that place doesn't even smell like a record store.

I'd kill for a place that had some decent prince around here. There's a store charging 50 bucks for Lovesexy. gently caress You. I cleared all of the thrift stores in Cincinnati out of Herb Alpert albums a few months ago but they've probably restocked by now.

TraderStav posted:I'm still new to Vinyl and got very frustrated last night trying to play Jack White's Lazaretto (from the Amazon B1G1!) and kept thinking I got a bad press or my ancient turntable was finally calling it quits. Turns out that side A you start the needle in the middle and it moves to the outside versus conventional usage. Looks like there's a bunch of gimmicks on that one: amazon posted:Over the past five years, Jack White & Third Man Records have brought to life many ideas that were new to the century-old vinyl format.

Then I'd watch all the vinyl nerds turn themselves in knots trying to decide whether to fold-in and see the joke or keep the jacket pristine. Chances are people would buy 2 copies. Hey I think you're onto something!

I just don't understand getting that excited about a compilation album. Unless it has songs written specifically for the movie/game/whatever that can't be found on a real album.

Anyone want to post pictures of their signed records? I just got this back through the mail today! He signed it in a little over a month.  USPS mangled the corner but it's up in a frame now anyway. I couldn't add any more cardboard to the return envelope without going over the 13oz rule for stamped mail.
