I'm sure everyone knows what you meant, and I figured it was just a mistake. Just on that off chance that you didn't know, I couldn't let someone go through life mistaken like that.

GhostTrail Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 I'm really bummed to have missed out on that Carpenter Brut too; however, I don't think you can call something that was just put up for sale two weeks ago a white whale.

tetsuodaironman Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Vampire Hunter D OST. Japan-only release (duh) that has only sold twice on eBay for $20 with no proper listing on Discogs. HeroinHamster and TheGhostOfRandySavage 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 carpenter brut - trilogy clams casino - instrumentals +1 for good tastes. As a means of inspiration - and not gloating - I want to mention that I landed a (blue) copy of Instrumentals at a relatively fair price, either last year or the year before. Well after the steep going-rate was established. I think it was via eBay, and I also believe it was in the $40 - $50 range? The seller wasn't positive if it had even been played, and it looked pretty mint upon arrival. Definitely a lucky find. I'm sure you'll catch a break if you keep your eyes peeled. I really wish parts 2 and 3 would get the vinyl treatment, too. WAXXX 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tetsuodaironman Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Finally found my #1 white whale today. Joe Hisaishi - "My Neighbor Totoro". This was the first Studio Ghibli movie I had seen and next to Spirited Away, my favorite of their soundtracks. The full score and songs were only pressed once in 1988 and has since been very difficult to find in Japan and ESPECIALLY the U.S., I got very lucky and was able to snatch this up when it popped up on discogs. I was just thinking the other day how much I would love to own this. Blumplum and WAXXX 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grails may not even exist, if you've seen one it's a whale not a grail. As far as I or the good folks over at the fat wreck wiki know, the most limited pressing (other than tests) of Liberal Animation is red, not blue. The blue pressing was limited to 700, while the red is limited to <10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGhostOfRandySavage Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Jets To Brazil - Orange Rhyming Dictionary. One will come up eventually; I just haven't been quick enough off the mark on Discogs when they do. Paw - Dragline. Thought I had this in the bag a few weeks ago. Didn't Palomar - A World Without Horses. First of all - not THAT Palomar. This was an offshoot of Paw (above). Second, it's a CD. Never released on vinyl. Apparently only sold at shows. No Discogs entry. Found it to download on Bandcamp, which is something. If you're not set on an original press...rumor has it that Orange Rhyming Dictionary will be getting the reissue treatment soon, along with a lot of older Jade Tree releases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downisthenewup87 Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Since people are on the topic of soundtracks... I'd love to somebody own a copy of the score the Chemical Brothers did for Hanna. Apparently the only pressing done was for promotional purposes and the 1000 copies were just given away for free (to promptly be sold online of course).

The blue pressing was limited to 700, while the red is limited to <10. I am one of said folks. The red you're referencing is mostly called burgundy, also very rare and a whale for sure. The blue I referenced is not the Epitaph repress, there's a yellow just like that one. This blue was supposedly a band member only pressing. Called it a grail, since not even a picture has ever surfaced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The blue I referenced is not the Epitaph repress, there's a yellow just like that one. This blue was supposedly a band member only pressing.

Check out buy-nippon.com, it lets you search japanese auction sites. I haven't found this version of the soundtrack on there but have come across other totoro and ghibli soundtracks.

B-dosia Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Been a good month... Deftones 'Red Pony', after several weeks of negotiation finally have this in my hands! Maylene and the Sons of Disaster II, clear w/ red splatter /200 (oh when will they press the whole catalog?) And on a side note, not quite a 'white whale', but also got a sealed Beastie Boys Anthology for $80 at one of the local record shops. It's like they had it sitting in the back for 15 years, blew the dust off and put it up for sale. Next white whales, Converge- Axe to Fall (shards), and Dillinger Escape plan - Ire Works, clear (band and friends edition) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deer Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Just got this in today. Was searching for a halfway decent price for the greater part of two years (only ever saw it for upwards of $120... ridiculous) and it finally appeared on Discogs for a very reasonable price. I was initially worried the seller was lying about its condition but it arrived today - no creases, bends, or dings; and vinyl looks completely unplayed. Not even a scuff. Really happy to finally own this. The Caretaker - An Empty Bliss Beyond This World PRINCE 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
