natef888 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Hey friends, Long time lurker but just decided to join up for a question I can't quite answer. Back in the early 2000's, Asian Man Records decided to clear out their inventories and sell a huge box of records for about $30. I ended up with something like 20-25 1st pressings of a lot of the origonal Asian Man collection along with a bunch of newer CD comps, stickers, etc. I was just going through my collection the other day when I cam across a copy of Slapstick- S/T album, but in single LP form. Everything I have searched for leads me to a repressing of it in clear 2xLP format, not sinle LP black wax. Anyone out there have this record that could tell me a little bit more about this? I was looking at selling it since I havent listened to it in at least 10 years and I wasn't sure if I had a gem on my hands. Below is a link to some photos... https://plus.google....=CLLP9Je354v4Tg Thanks! -Nate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hickey Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 That's the first press. I think it was limited to 500. They go anywhere from $50 to $100 on eBay typically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnstiles Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 That box is probably worth some bucks. The OG pressing of stuff go for a little more money depending. If you have a Goddamnit or a Maybe I'll catch fire I just sold my first pressings for around 75$ a piece on ebay in May. I'm sure you'll find someone to buy the records you have on this site. Establish yourself by posting your ebay feedback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timbrh2001 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Wow, awesome. Congrats, never seen one of those available. I've got the clear 2xLP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
circuit bored records Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Got my single from AMR back in the day, but ended up selling it when they repressed it. It's missing a couple songs off the CD and the 2xLP sounds better in my opinion too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

circuit bored records Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I have the clear, but I've also owned the 2x black and couldn't really tell a difference between them... I always just thought the single had too much music on each side in comparison to the reissue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donlombardo Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Really? Do you have the clear or black 2xLP? I Am kind of disappointed with the sound of my clear copy. this. I wonder if Mike used the masters or the CD for all the re-releases he did a few years back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
