    I would have to agree with you there!
    There is an Enya 12-inch want. But the thing is STILL $30 USD plus shipping with the coupon.
    I know that thing was around $10-$15 back in the day, but I missed it.

    Now to pay it forward. Here is my 10% Coupon for the Solid State records webshop:
    C8RN-Y9KL-N1RC
    Use it for your own gold/yellow "O God.." or whatever else you would want on the site.
    And quick side note, still need a coke bottle clear if someone has an extra. Cheers!

    True that. I keep forgetting this is "experimental" noise rock, so the extra grit may ADD to the experience, and not detract.
    Kind of like the artists who release something "only" on cassette, cause the "hiss" and muffled audio adds to the experience.
    I just don't get it though. I originally got into vinyl back in the 90s because a well pressed record just sounded better than the vintage CD versions, most of the time...
    I want the version that "sounds" the best. So I guess that would be the 24bit+ studio file and my laptop...
    But I just prefer the whole "vinyl experience..."
    Maybe we are both right

    I actually dug this
    I love it when the kids study up on the 80s records I loved to listen to back in the day. So tempted to grab the other one

    Eh, I actually did a shoot out between the original 1992 EMI pressing of "Us," compared to the 200 gram black Classic pressing of record #1.
    We did this on my buddies high end set up, Spica speakers, Blue Point Special cart...(Forget the rest of his set up)
    To my ears, the Classic had more "low end," while the original EMI had more "high end" detail.
    Pretty much apples and oranges, but I preferred the original EMI pressing, and that cost me about $25 back when it was a "new album."
    I have really enjoyed the quality of many/most of the original EMI pressings. I have disliked a few of the Classic pressings.
    Although, I would love to find a Clarity copy of Melt though, as it is the only one of the "big four" I am missing

    We ALL have those. I had the original Tool "Aenima" in my hand, back in the day, for $12 and PUT IT BACK because I was not crazy about the song "Stinkfist."
    What a FOOL am I

    Ok, I love Dire Straits first album....
     
    but why are they looking at the COVER of it, with a DIFFERENT record on the "vertical turntable?"
     
    Oh wait, that is just a "conversation piece." The Dire Straits album is playing on the "real" turntable you can't see in the picture.

    This reminds me of the Perfect Pussy LP that had the real menstrual blood mixed in with the vinyl.
    Meant for the bathroom, not my turntable.

    Eh, look at the bright side. Get a copy on Vinyl that will sound just as good for about $30+ less, once the regular version comes out.
    I actually feel a bit silly that I paid that much for essentially a "signature."

    I have heard the 2 x 4s are fine. However, I have heard stories of the 4 x 4s Kallaxes bursting apart due to them not being as sturdy as the Expidits, because of the less wood they are using on the outer sides.
    I need the 2 x 4 Expedits because I need them to match the rest that I already have.

    It really seems that way. They were IN STOCK about a month ago, but now they are gone from every IKEA store I looked up on the East Coast.

    Plarocks got a reaction from darkforest71 in Zeppelin Vinyl Reissues   
    Eh, I would not be so quick to abandon the search for an "RL" Zeppelin II. I did not believe the hype until I actually had the privilege of hearing a VG+ copy with my own ears.
    It was like hearing "Whole Lotta Love" for the first time, even though I have heard that thing a million times on the radio. Sounds like Page and the boys are breaking down the door coming into your home, car, etc.
    I can't get over how intense that Ludwig master sounds. No way the re-issue will beat that pressing

    Why is it that this stupid fan club sends out multiple e-mails to try and sell me tickets to a solo Vedder show IN BRAZIL, that is too far away for me to attend, but they send me NOTHING about this 7-inch that I would love to be able to purchase!!?? The Ten Club is so annoying....
