Records You Are Lucky To Own


Recommended Posts

Not really all too rare by any means, but I have a friend who just plain gave me his copy of moving mountains' pneuma for free when I started collecting. I'm lucky to have it and I'm lucky to have such a good friend who would do something like that for me!

Judging by the ebay prices, it's time to sell mine. I haven't spun it in years anyways.

I posted in 2011, but I can't see my picture because the link is dead. Here's a few:
 

Brandtson - "Send Us A Signal" Test Pressing LP (Blue handmade screened jacket/orange marble vinyl - #2/5) - A favorite album

Copeland - "In Motion" LP Test Pressing (Approved test - #10/10) - Another favorite 
 
Craig's Brother - "Lost At Sea" LP Test Pressing (Tooth & Nail/Veritas Vinyl/Vinyl Remains - x/10) - A college favorite
 
Starflyer 59 - "Silver" LP Test Pressing (Tooth & Nail/Crossroads of America - x/10)  - I didn't even buy a regular copy, just a test.

Strongarm - "The Advent of a Miracle" LP Test Pressing (Second pressing/Blank Page Empire - #25/30) - A fav from high school.
 
Zao - "Liberate Te Ex Inferis" LP Test Pressing (Screened cover - #12/15) - Another college fav
Zao - "Self-Titled" LP (Screened Cover/black - #7/10) - I still love Zao

Gaturs, The ‎– "Wasted b/w "Gator Bait" (Gatur Records ‎– 510) A pricey funk 45 led by NOLA's own Willie Tee. This is actually G+ shape.

Minor Threat ‎– "In My Eyes" (Dischord no. 5/second pressing/yellow labels - x/1,000) - 1st press would be great, but this is good enough.
 
Velvet Underground, The & Nico - "The Velvet Underground & Nico" (Verve V6-5008/First pressing/stereo/unpeeled banana sticker on front/torso back cover ) - I bought this with store credit from where I worked. It was $440ish in store credit. Best free purchase ever!

This is me in 2004, ten years later, I have all three pressings and the infamous Cousins sleeve but I am considering if I should hunt down a test press.

^ Hey, if you want another copy of that Caleb LP (/122 or something), PM me your address and I will just give it to you...it was an impulse buy and never made its way back to my table after the first listen. Not my thing...

A few weeks ago, while cleaning out my closet, I found a sealed copy of the Gorillaz Demon Days. I also found MCR's The Black Parade still sealed, and a picture disc of CKY's Infiltrate•Destroy•Rebuild. The best part about it is that these were all bought back in 2004-2007 when I was still working at Hot Topic and most of them were on clearance.
