digitalgiraffe Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 Hi guys, I just got back from a 2month trip to Europe and picked up a couple of records in London before I left and was curious about pressing info on them. I found Nirvana Nevermind in a record store for 10pounds (About $21AUD) and was happy with that. Got home and pulled it out of the sleeve and its a nice bright blue. The date on the sleeve says 1991 and I couldn't find anything about a recent repress on this colour. I also picked up Guns N Roses Appetite for Destruction on Green vinyl with the previously banned cover for 15pound and cant seem to find a great deal of info on this either. Another was Def Leppard Hysteria and this has a gold stamp on it saying "Promotional Copy Not For Resale". Does this do anything to help its value? Could anyone shed some light on these records for me? Thanks for your help. Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjo09 Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 Just had a hunt and this is the closest I found for nevermind http://www.vinyl-records.biz/Nirvana.htm And the GNR looks to go for about $40 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suburbanargyle Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 I could be wrong but the Nirvana and GNR records sound like bootlegs. I'm pretty certain "Nevermind" has never been officially released on colored vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roadmonkey Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 i found this site a while ago and it looks like they have very detailed info http://www.livenirvana.com/digitalnirvana/discography/nirvana/gef_24425_tp.html look around there, you should find something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suburbanargyle Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 I think it's along the same lines as...when I was in Germany earlier this year they had a bunch of Nirvana "Hormoaning" LPs at a store in Heidelberg. They were bootlegs, but the real LPs go for so much money that it wouldn't necessarily be a bad purchase just to hear the music on vinyl. So either way, I think it's a good purchase if you enjoy the albums and colored vinyl! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitalgiraffe Posted June 1, 2009 Author Share Posted June 1, 2009 Thanks for the prompt reply guys. Either way I was going to buy the albums and they sound great so I'm happy. I'll throw up a few pics when I get home from work tonight. The blue Nevermind looks really good. Cheers, Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celebdeath Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 I'd agree with this, you didn't get them in Sister Ray did you? haha! yep, sister ray certainly DOES have that reputation! still kicking myself for not grabbing a copy of the s/t Queens of the Stone Age LPs they had - even if they were bootlegs.

digitalgiraffe Posted June 4, 2009 Author Share Posted June 4, 2009 I don't know about rare, but it was originally banned and there are always quite a few on ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
