futures Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 I've never really thought about any records as "white whales," but as of late I've been trying to track down Ben Howard's 2x7" Old Pine EP. I'm super bummed because I saw that his people must've found some hidden somewhere and had them for sale on his website last week, but they're sold out now.

derrickcook19941 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 ive been trying to track down death from above 1979's heads up EP on clear since i started collecting. one time it went up on discogs for 50 bucks and by the time i got to checkout someone else had already bought it. a second time on discogs it was up for 70 i quickly bought it only to have the seller mail me and say he didnt have it anymore...if ANYONE has this i will be willing to drop a good amount on it.

GradedOnACurve Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 I've yet to see Samiam Clumsy on color from Bitzcore records anywhere. Not on ebay or discogs. I think its safe to say that its approaching white whale status for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyacrash Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Ten Yard Fight - 1995 Demo Cowgirl Cover #'d/10 There are a few records that have eluded me over the years, but this is the one that I seriously may never get. Never seen it for sale, and this picture is actually the only pic I've ever seen of it (bottom right corner): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drds89 Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I think only only one on my want list truly qualifies as a 'white whale'-- and I ain't tellin' which one, b/c the hunt is already crazy enough and at least 50 people in line ahead of me....and so none of you other lunatics get any new ideas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
searos Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I would love a copy of Everclear - Sparkle and Fade but I think currently the white whale I have been looking for relentlessly with no luck is No Use For A Name - More Betterness.

Shelby Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I had two white whales for the longest before finally catching one. Pavement - Slay Tracks (1933-1969) 1000 pressed in 1990 hand numbered Now just The Microphones - Blood I don't think I'll ever find this one...

stranaspank Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Cursive - Storms of Early Summer on white vinyl. Maybe comes up on ebay once a year, if that. I have one of the two records of Lonesome Crowded West, but it's the A/B record and the C/D jacket. Somewhere out there is it's mis-matched twin...
