What's your White Whale record?


Recommended Posts

Guest Vic Flange

Ha!

The first post of this thread.

Mods feel free to move if this in the wrong forum since it's not about a specific release or anything newsworthy. Just asking the question, what is the one record that you want the most but have been unable to find whether it's due to price, hasn't been pressed, or other reasons.

I guess what I'm asking is, what single record would bring you the most personal joy right now.

Or...

What was the one record that you spent forever hunting and eventually found.

I was more referring to the fact that on the same page you posted that, someone had just bitched about people doing it. It's ok to get upset over it if you want though ;)

That same 1st post says that people should post about stuff that's too expensive for them too, and yet people still bitch about it all the time. I just find it funny.

Keep on, keepin' on, there, new user. Getting butthurt over something like that is a great way to make internet friends.  :P

I'm not upset about it. I'm just posted a record that I want that didn't quite make it to press. Nobody is 100% sure if it got as far as a handful of test pressings. But never mind, neg away if that is the bag that you are into.

I don't think anyone "negged' you, I certainly didn't.

It's never gonna happen but the Sex Pistols - God Save The Queen on A&M. I had the opportunity to buy one in the early 80's for £100 but it was way out of reach. That was a mistake. :(

Walked into a Pop Up shop today in an art gallery and I got an original pressing of Vs. by Pearl Jam for $20...but that's not why I'm here

 

On the wall was Demon Days by Gorillaz for $100... the guy selling it is only there til Monday but I'm leaving for vacation in a few hours..I return Monday but I doubt I'll be back in time. Might need to convince someone to pick it up for me and not want to keep it for themselves..

Most Precious Blood - Nothing in Vain test press

 

I know there are 5 of them in existence, one went on ebay a couple of years ago pretty cheap, but I wasn't into test presses back then.

I've tried to locate a copy for years, but nobody from  the band I've asked has a copy and the label has long been defunct.

I guess the remaining 4 copies are rotting in a basement somewhere because nobody gives a shit about them except for me.

Unless you're looking for a specific copy of Loveless that one isn't too hard/expensive recently.

Damn, I'd be kicking myself for that!

I'm actually waiting for the reissue by Hot Topic, but if I can't get that, then I'll go for the other one.

Yeah, I hate Plain.  I want the OG Creation pressing. :D
