End of next week I'm going to Germany for two weeks to visit my parents. As usual I will use this time to thin out the record boxes I've stored there.

Everything on my list is for sale, pm me if you're interested in something. (Check the "Info" section to see with whom I've dealt in the past.)

ah, a "winner" of my test press contest, eh? I'm gonna guess you didn't buy the regular album when Virgil had it available?

Actually, I did buy the regular album. I just threw it in with one of my orders one day because it was cheap and I liked the title. It wasn't really my thing (though I like the concept), so I gave it to someone who enjoyed it a great deal more than me.

Then a few weeks later, out of nowhere, I got the test press. I didn't even know that there was a contest.

daaaamn. whats the story on bonzo goes to bitburg? that's one of the most sought after ramones records right? how'd you wind up with it? how much does it go for, etc... that's cool as fuck.

I don't know how sought after that record is. I really like the Ramones and have a couple of their records, but I was never collecting them.

It's a test of the UK pressing, i.e. the Beggars Banquet (BEG140) version. I think another test for this pressing sold on Ebay earlier this year for like $50.

I bought the record years ago in a small record store that was (unbeknownst to me when I entered) specialising in jazz records. So when I asked for punk records, the store owner just showed me to a bunch of boxes with all kinds of mixed non-jazz records. Next to this Ramones record I also found a copy of William Shatner's "Transformed Man" in there.
