What record in your collection ...

Melvins - Stoner Witch

In 1994 14 year old me Took a bus to downtown minneapolis to my all time favorite and now closed record store Northern Lights and bought it during a day off from school. To my surprise (before the days of announcing what color it's on and how many were pressed) it was on pink vinyl and I played the hell out of it. To this day, when I open the gatefold and put my nose right in the middle I can still smell the store.

 

 

I can still smell the BO from Extreme Noise every time I take out a record I bought from there.  That's the last place I bought Jolt! Cola, too.

Lighthouse Project - Gift

 

I gave my cd copy of the album to Rise Against's vocalist/guitarist Tim in Feb 2009. Three months later was announced that Rise Against would play in Finland for the first time with Lighthouse Project as their hand-picked support. Later when my friend got to talk with Tim and ask about this whole deal, he told her how they only picked them as their support because of the cd I have given to him (Tim eg. mentioned they reminded him of Refused). LHP then sent me new copy of the cd and to my surprise also the vinyl of the album as a thank you for accidentally scoring them their biggest gig (nearly 3000 capacity venue) to date.

Now the white variation of Gift as vinyl is definitely one of my most precious in my collection. Not only was it one of my first vinyl records but it's also in my top 3 all time favourite albums.
