I have an LP-60  (For real, it was a decent way to get started easily for super cheap without ruining my records on a Crosley or whatever. Although stepping up to the 120 would've ultimately saved me the extra cash I ended up spending on the Technics 1200mk2, since the upgrade probably wouldn't have seemed worth it at that point.)

Gimmick or not, I gotta admit I'm a sucker for a good colour variant.

Missed opportunity for big fat Mike Huckabee not playing a 9 string bass. 4 string doesn’t look right.

He had to stop playing the 9 string because his son wouldn't stop stealing the extra strings to go hang dogs from trees.

Vinyl Me, Please's latest Anthology box set is for Herbie Hancock. Some of the included albums (and glaring omissions) are a bit odd, although apparently these were the albums picked by the man himself. If you're a current VMP member or if you bought a previous anthology set, you should've gotten a $60 discount code sent to your email, making the price slightly more palatable. This is the first VMP anthology I'm jumping on (I wish I hadn't missed out on the Blue Note set) and got lucky that I don't have any of the albums included here, except for Headhunters. Not much Miles love here, but Wayne Shorter is all over this thing.

Yeah thats kind of a weird selection. No Secrets, no thrust, by future shock? 1+1 is good though. I caught them together around the time that came out and they were great. I’ll have to check out Takin’ off, I don’t think I’ve ever heard it, but it’s got a great lineup with Freddie Hubbard and Billy Higgins.

Just ordered the new Idles and Sylvan Esso records from the local record store and almost immediately got a flash sale coupon from Ship to Shore for 30% off. Had to order some city pop records that I hadn't gotten to yet (two Piper, and Rie Murakami). Expensive day.

While waiting for a replacement I chatted up the dude who runs the French Wax Buyers Club which had the amazing black/yellow variant and he had a couple of spare records without sleeves, so he sold me one for 10 Euros. So now I have a boss looking album that sounds great and is housed in a sleeve with the VMP stamp on the back. A Frankenstein package, but I'll take it.

Not quite the same situation, but relatedly, I once grabbed a repress of a soul record from a store, not realizing it was a colour variant, and it turned out to be like straight up poo poo\vomit brown\yellow. Like just the ugliest colour imaginable, and I just want to know why they bothered. At least it sounded good!

So at this point in the week they might say they'll get 20, but then by Saturday their allotment will get cut to 5 because some got lost in shipment, the warehouse shorted them or their full order wont come for another week. It's always been like that, not just COVID reasons.

Does that XFiles album have Beacon Light by Ween? Gonna have to brave the stores if so... e: looks like not, still cool but I can safely pass quote:First time on Vinyl! Musical selections from the first three years of the acclaimed science fiction television series by resident composer Mark Snow, with interspersed dialogue by the cast written by Chris Carter. The Truth is out there. Beacon Light for the uninitiated, one of my fave Ween tracks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WATRw3bo4u4 Enos Cabell fucked around with this message at 00:38 on Sep 23, 2020 |

Sortof surprised this got a EU pressing (that's also real cheap on discogs) Sucks that this is the only vinyl record they put out before disbanding considering they had a lot of other great songs, and a few of the songs of this LP aren't that great.

Hey thread, the recommendations in the OPs are pretty old -- is the AT-LP60X a decent buy for ~$120 USD? I'm basically planning on running the built-in preamp's output into the line level input on my PC to mix it into my PC audio. Not really planning on getting a fancy receiver and speaker setup anytime soon. e: I should clarify I'm not really much of a vinyl collector or anything, just someone with a bunch of records I've had in storage for like, seven years that I'd like to be able to put on and listen to again.

RE: RSD saturday: Thank goodness i only want one mandatory this time, which is Bill Evans repress. Also, heavily debating this UK ONLY RDS. Seeing how I spent way too much on the Local Natives gorilla manor 10th anniversary (not from VMP, but an allocation from the band direct), it's not beyond me to do another pricey rough trade UK import.

Not really planning on getting a fancy receiver and speaker setup anytime soon. It's just fine as a starter turntable. The 120 is a huge step up if you can afford it but if you're just looking to play what you have the 60 is fine.

I'm basically planning on running the built-in preamp's output into the line level input on my PC to mix it into my PC audio. Not really planning on getting a fancy receiver and speaker setup anytime soon. Hey, I just talked about this up toward the top of the page! I started with an LP60 (mine was $99 at the time) and it served me just fine for a couple years till I decided to upgrade. I even plan on using it as a secondary player if I ever get around to fixing up my basement. As mentioned by the poster above me and in my earlier post, the 120 is more future-proof, but since that's over twice the price of the 60, it can definitely be worthwhile to go with the cheaper entry point to see if you like listening to records in general. Plus, the auto return of the LP60 is handy.
