Is anyone else obsessed with Aimee Mann's music??  Bachelor No. 2 and Lost In Space were pressed on vinyl, but that Mobile Fidelity label did them awhile ago and now they're out of print.  I wouldn't mind a nice box set at all.

 

Hey thanks again for the deal!  Just got my records in yesterday.. super fast shipping, packed well and everything sounds great!

Courtesy of Amazon..

 

It'd be great if somehow they could get the bonus tracks from TOYPAJ on the greatest hits vinyl pressing in the future. I didn't want to buy anther copy of that album just to get the 3 7"s.

I'm still waiting on my 3 7"s from MTS, soon right? ;]

To save money, I'll just get the Greatest Hits LP (for those odd times I might get the urge to listen to B182).

I'm with you on this.. I'd love to have the whole lot, but I've got other records to buy. Greatest Hits should suffice.

YES YES YES

Also this

It just came out a little while ago, but I'd check it out. Sort of like LÖC meets The Flatliners.

In the mail today:

Tigers Jaw - Charmer (Maroon/White)

Of course I checked the album out last week when the download codes were sent out.  It's excellent.. 'Slow Come On' is great, and they actually played this a few years ago at Title Fight's 'Floral Green' record release show.  The record itself is awesome.. that embossed cover is great.  I keep rubbing it and rubbing it.

 

Cheap Girls - Famous Graves (Red)

I didn't spin this yet, but I checked out some songs they released before it came out.  They re-recorded 'Pure Hate' which was on their split with Lemuria.  Such a solid song.  I need to see these guys live.. love them.  They're guitar player is ridiculous.. they don't even need a second one.  This one is the red variant, limited to 300 on No Idea.. It came out on 5/13, but it was delayed.

 

Tiny Empires - Weird Headspace

I grabbed this from No Idea when I ordered the Cheap Girls lp.  I didn't even know they were around and had a record out.  They were on the flipside of a split with Tigers Jaw that came out a little while ago.  I didn't spin this either.. sounded good before I bought it though.  It's on black vinyl, screen printed cover.

 

Stopped in Embassy Vinyl in Scranton the other day.. I'd never been there and I recommend it.  I only had an hour to look before they closed, but I grabbed..

 

Johnny Thunders - Diary Of A Lover (1983, PVC) 

A 12" EP that was later released as 'In Cold Blood', but these have different mixes and predate that release.  I'd love an affordable copy of 'So Alone'.

 

10,000 Maniacs - In My Tribe (1987, Elektra)

I just got into this band for a single I bought for $2.. a few days later I found a double cd of hits/b-sides and I can't stop listening to it.

 

The Ocean Blue - S/T (1989, Sire/Reprise)

From the sound and band photo on the cover, these guys look english and sound a bit like The Smiths, but they are from HERSHEY, PA.. chocolate motherfuckers.  Chocolate.

 

Funny story about The Ocean Blue lp.. I go into a local record shop/music gear store maybe once or twice a week.. grab a few used records for a few bucks each.  It's always a great deal because I used to take guitar lessons from the owner and actually worked there years and years ago.. but I always make a note if something looks interesting.. check it out at home and if I like it, I'll buy it the next time I go in.  Well, I had this Ocean Blue lp on the side along with a few others (The Police, Tom Petty, Fingerprintz).. before I check out, he checked EBAY and found two Buy It Now's for $67 and $80.. so he didn't sell it to me!  Anyway, when I went to Embassy I randomly found it again for $4!  He actually has his on ebay right now.. maybe I should bid really high and not pay.  :lol:    That's all.  I'm bored and wanted to type a bunch of words.

I can only imagine how awesome Greatest Hits is going to look.

Awesome deal! I grabbed both Socratic albums, Day At The Fair and the Two Sides bundle which seems like a cool split series. Thanks again!

P.S.

Do the digital dl's (socratic s/t, two sides) get emailed/cards??

My local HT in the Steamtown Mall doesn't stock vinyl so I can't run and pick up a copy…. they get the disney picture discs though. thank gawd for that.

Has there been any news or an ETA on TOYPAJ I may have missed? i've only seen a "working on it" post.

The Wyoming Valley Mall in Wilkes-Barre just got rid of their vinyl.. I went to Embassy Vinyl in Scranton today.. That place is great! Scored a Johnny Thunders 12" and a few more records.

Anyone want to cringe?

Hope he doesn't break it.

How about the 'Singles' compilation?? Love that record.
