Th3Gr8Whit3Dop3 Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Over the course of the last couple of years, I've found a few B.A.M. exclusive pressings at various Books-A-Million locations that I could find no record of anywhere online, not even on their own website. I myself had to add the listings for these records to Discogs.com for there to be any hard record of these pressings existing anywhere online (Miles Smiles and On the Corner by Miles Davis, both pressed on blue wax, among others). I've tried contacting B.A.M. to attain a comprehensive list of all of the exclusive vinyl pressings they have released, but to no avail. Is there anyone on here who might know more about this, or where I might be able to find such a list? I'm very curious to see what they've had pressed that I might not know about.

Th3Gr8Whit3Dop3 Posted February 8, 2018 Author Share Posted February 8, 2018 Mostly gimmick records, for sure. Those two Miles Davis records made me curious to dig deeper though, those are sweet pressings and the only colored copies of those records I know of.

unknown pleasures Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 I like to stick to non-gimmick records like Macintosh Plus releases that never ship, Hellraiser soundtracks that come in cubes three times as large as necessary and Frank Ocean records that are only available for 48 hour windows of time. cantdance, MrMatt767, TheLegendOfMidna and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is 2018 - who still reads books when you can have the convenience of a Kindle?!? Get with the times, man! Anyway, back to the topic at hand: sweet, sweet vinyl. Anyone know the best way to store 8 milk crates worth of white label 80s dance-mix 12”s?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If asking price on Craigslist is any indication, I think I’m looking at $80k minimum. TheGhostOfRandySavage 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
