nothingnatural Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 FYI the album in question is QOTSA's songs for the deaf on red wax, ipecac label... Did you by chance pay $57 for this on eBay? If you did, then be happy with the purchase man. That's a rare record and it was recently bootlegged on red vinyl. There's no common info yet to tell the differences of the two so you assured yourself an original. There's been other bootlegs of it for years on green, white and black vinyl but the red boot is from the last year or so. I wouldn't trip over the cut corner at all. I have the UK version of this (with the different cover) but I still need to get the US version as I've heard it's a much better pressing from numerous people.

violetflower Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 I think these promos are worth much more than regular versions. They are much rarer, right? I love to collect records with cut off corners or punched barcodes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scarnage Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 I remember when I got my first Promo vinyl. It was a copy of their second album, Sandwich Fist, and I bought it at A&A Records and Tapes in the Polo Park Mall. So good, that mall used to have the best food court.

Yeah dude, $57 is a damn good score IMO. I am pretty pissed that there's now bootlegs on red as it's gonna be tough for me to grab a legit US press. Tired of all the QOTSA bootlegs that are always littered all over eBay. I was told by one person that it's really hard to distinguish the two.

oakland Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Promos are a good way to get some really good albums on vinyl that you otherwise couldn't afford because collectors have driven the price too high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
