Been buying a lot recently, so much so that I need a break from spending... Yesterday I picked up an early U.K. mono Revolver, which was very cheap and has obligatory name in biro on the back and on one of the labels. Plays very well though. Got a Porky Prime Cut Foxtot with textured sleeve that I was also very pleased with. Sounds very good to my ears.
Well this years flying in next purchase will be the White Album Anniversary box that's if it includes vinyl.
Just got Neil's The Visitor and Amerikkkant by Ministry to start my F trump collection (might start a thread to find more lps in that vein). Still waiting on delivery: Greenwood's Phantom Thread ost, Beach House 7, and American Utopia from David Byrne.
David Bowie - Low (remastered) Danger Mouse - Dark Night of the Soul The Moody Blues - Days of Future Passed (restored 1967 version) Amanda Palmer and Edward Ka-Spel - I Can Spin a Rainbow Joan Armatrading - Not Too Far Away
'Golden Voice' by Thanatopsis. Late 60s recordings by an Illinois group being released for the first time. It's been mailed, and I'm eagerly awaiting its arrival.
Just arrived is Billy Joel's Greatest Hits vol 1 and 2, MFSL vinyl. I have the SACD so it'll be interesting to compare over the weekend.
I'd like to get that one! For years I was pondering whether to just grab an original pressing from 1985 but have never done it. I've always just had cassette and CD copies. But it's definitely one of those truly essential retrospectives of a legendary artist.
Just discovered a new (to me) record store in town yesterday. Mostly R&B but the guy had a few crates of rock LPs where I scored nice-looking copies of Tommy and Relayer for a ten-spot. If they play as nice as they look, I might be back for a couple more albums that caught my eye (he played a little of Tommy for me and it sounded good).
