So someone unloaded a MASSIVE new wave collection at Easystreet Records in west seattle and I went pickin' yesterday! I'm such a sucker for stuff thats still in the plastic wrap and if it has the original hype sticker I usually buy it. Well, these person was a HUGE depeche mode fan and there are tons of great singles and almost all 1st pressings of the 80's albums. If you live in Seattle, I highly recommend you swing by and get some of the good stuff while it lasts. Everything is near mint and clearly it came from someone who knew how to take care of a record.

 

With that being said, I picked up the following: 

 

Depeche Mode: Strange Love in plastic wrap w/ original hype sticker

Depeche Mode: It's Called a Heart in plastic wrap w/ original hype sticker

Depeche Mode: Shake The Disease splatter vinyl variant

Depeche Mode: People Are People Gold Promo Stamp

Full Metal Jacket OST w/ gold promo stamp

 

and finally my GoHasting.com variant of the new Manson record came in as well. :)

For my sins I recently acquired 1989 by Taylor Swift, Teenage Dreams by Katy Perry and One of the Boys, also by Katy Perry. I feel like I'm hanging with the cool kids now because I'm actually getting into a lot of new music.

 

The age of the iTunes download seems to have actually helped the quality of albums as artists can't get away with packing an album with filler otherwise people would only download the good track.
