I want that Zappa thing a lot. Congrats, man. I'm also trying to get my hands on most of his original albums. Especially since he remixed all the CDs and stuff. But, hey, vinyl thread. Are those record cleaner systems worth it? I've got some spare cash and I'm thinking of getting one. I was thinking of getting this one: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002UKSZUU/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pd_S_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=3HFMTARFWTF4M&coliid=I1FKNXG96GIO9M since i've seen it recommended before. But is there another option? Possibly one that doesn't cost me a dozen records?

this starts with circus music so im all in for the album. thanks for this, man. Dissapointed Owl posted:As long as they sound better than the Tomahawk lps. They were absolutely rubbish sounding. could you elaborate? I was thinking at some point in the near future I would blow some cash on that RSD Tomahawk collection box set. I have a 7" that sounds fairly good.

Boinks posted:Did anyone else get anything good from Half Price Books 50% off coupon on Saturday? Here's what I picked up for $3.50: I bought some of the more expensive Omar Rodriguez records I've been wanting, so that was nice. 50% off is baller as hell and it took a lot of effort not to hit up the 6 or 7 that are within reasonable driving distance of me.

WickedHate posted:Is it worth it if I'm mostly into modern stuff? I like older acts too, but not too awfully much. There's a good several of records I want from acts I really like, but I'm not sure on it's sustainability of it(ie even if people keep making records none of the people I like will). It's fun if you dont like having money or space in your home.

Wronkos posted:I'm in Dallas for a few weeks visiting my parents over the holiday break, and since they've just moved here, I decided to check out some of the local shops. The first one I went to was Josey Records off I-35, and I was not disappointed. They have a really large selection of used rock, soul, funk, etc, but what I was really impressed by is their classical stuff. I ended up spending most of my time (and money) in that section of the store, with the exception of finding Duke by Genesis and In Our Lifetime by Marvin Gaye. Here's some of what I bought today: Hit up the half price books in richardson. A couple months back they got like 300 classical records and I think I'm the only one thats ever bought them. They were 1 to 3 bucks, in real good condition and with outer sleeves on.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cursed,_Unshaven_and_Misbehavin%27:_Live_Infinity This is probably the most irritating record I've heard of. "The vinyl is unique in the way it is played. "Jim Fear" begins like a normal 7" but ends on a locked groove in the middle of the vinyl. "Destro's Secret" plays from the inside out and ends in the locked groove in the middle of the vinyl. "Sandbox Magician" begins like a normal 7", however "The Mullet Burden" begins slightly after the starting point for "Sandbox Magician". The EP comes with a sheet explaining the procedure required to listen to all of the tracks."

El Gallinero Gros posted:Because after they fired Kevin Rutmanis, Buzz and Dale decided to just use guests. Hence using Trevor Dunn on Freak Puke, JD Pinkus on Hold it In, and that dude from Redd Kross on 3 Men and A Baby. I think Basses Loaded is different bassists on different tracks rather than multiple bassists on individual tracks, though For some reason I was thinking it was on individual tracks. Either way I'm hype for it.

A few pages back there was a link to Constellation's website with GY!BE's f#A#∞ reissue that had "1997-1998" debossed next to the album name. Is that how all reissues are? And if so, why is mine different? I just checked my copy (same reissue) and it doesnt have that year emboss either. Giga Gaia fucked around with this message at 23:18 on Apr 14, 2016 |

Is this the same as the existing 90s release? Except cheaper? Which is surprising for a Mondo release...

Schremp Howard posted:Are you moving or just temporarily hauling stuff around? Last time I moved I put everything in those reuseable grocery bags that most places sell and it went pretty easily. Much better than boxing and lifting. I have two bags of lovely records I keep meaning to sell in bags like this. I use them as weights to do curls with sometimes. Works great and they cost a buck, definitely would recommend for transporting.
