Record Store Day 2017


Recommended Posts

Zero interest in the pineapple express soundtrack and Peter Tosh at 30+ haha.. At least the Big L and Sublime is decently priced and looks like the Brother Ali is 3k instead of 1.5 so I will just wait on that as well. The good news is I probably will not be spending too much at least after seeing most of the prices now.

 

I hope anyone that buys that RTJ tote bag for 23 fucking dollars has it rip on them causing substantial flipping injuries to all the records inside.

I really only want The Sundays, so I hope I get that one... nostalgic connection to it.

I might impulsively get some of the jazz releases like the Bill Evans or Dexter Gordon... not sure yet. 

I did want there to be less tempting options this year, so am happy about that :)

 

OTOH, yeah the Cocteau Twins releases would've been nice, but I try not to deal with the UK and shipping anymore... we'll see once the online sales show up on if it's still available/reasonable, hahah.

I messed up this edit.... can't type outside the quote now.  I used to have Colleen on my old laptop, might need to stream and see if it's worthy to consider :) 

I saw Television Personalities listed at Bullmoose so it's hopeful that at least that one'll be around in stores for you to get, g'luck! :)

SDRE - Rising Tide & Space Jam will be the must haves.

 

A few titles will likely linger at the record store and will browse the rest once I'm satisfied with my priority purchases. I'll also be really bummed if I can't score SDRE. Space Jam soundtrack had some really classic tracks from back when. Super shitty that people on discogs had them going for an arm and a leg when I hear stories of dudes finding that shit in a dollar bin.

Hopefully the complete lack of interest here in the Dark Crystal OST matches with real-world demand. With The Labyrinth getting a wide release later this year, this would make a great companion piece.

 

then again, I'm kind of a sucker for Trevor Jones soundtracks.

Fews things I'm interested in (Marcy Playground, Thrice 7", Space Jam, Coheed, SRV) but in reality just going to see what the price will be (which obviously I can assume will be stupid) so I'll probably end up just getting Marcy, Space Jam and Coheed and picking up the new Ty Segall album 

 

SIDE NOTE: I live in freaking Oklahoma, and the shop I normally go to, although in a big University town, is never that  packed for RSD. Usually can get there about 9am (hour before opening) and be like 20th in line.
