Recent purchases


Recommended Posts

I won't bother spilling out the long list since the last time I posted, I'll just say that I hit stores in LA with @Holo this weekend and picked up two records I'd been looking for for a while:

 

Scratch Acid - Just Keep Eating (original cover with the color-changing foil)

Sufjan Stevens - Illinois (original superman cover)

Trying to save money, so I've been cutting back but I had to grab a NM original of Gene Clark "No Other" a few days ago. So damn good, he once claimed he only listened to his own albums the antithesis of what most artists do. Apparently his wife got so sick of hearing this album

Totally just reminded me that I need to grab some A Frames albums.  I had pretty much forgotten about those guys but loved them when they first got on subpop.

Yeah, it's a shame they broke up so soon thereafter. Black Forest (the Sub Pop LP) is damn good, but A Frames (their debut) is far and away my favorite. 

 

Since last time: 

 

Boglin -  Pupseria soundtrack (2 copies, red & yellow, yes I am a sucker [all day])

Orb - Birth ("Noxious Cloud") and Naturality ("Lucky Red") - part of a massive Castle Face order consisting mostly of $5 sale items

...the rest of that Castle Face order, which I won't detail, but it included King Gizz, Fresh & Onlys, The Blind Shake, The Herms, Trin Tran, and a bunch more

Angelo Badalamenti - Fire Walk With Me soundtrack (European reissue on WB/Rhino with the original art) - fuck those ridiculous Death Waltz versions

Michael Nyman - The Nyman/Greenaway Soundtracks (4LP box)

Jay Reatard - Blood Visions (RSD reissue from a year or two back, white vinyl w/ demos 7" on red) - my old ITR copy's getting wornded out :(

John Coltrane - Coltrane (early 70s 2LP Prestige set combining  remastered versions of Soultrane and Traneing In) - cheaper than buying them separately

Was in Charleston this week and got a real nice haul at Monster Music (great store):

 

The Long Winters - Ultimatum

Waxahatchee - Out in the Storm (VMP Pressing)

Elliott - False Cathedrals (red vinyl)

King Crimson - In The Court of the Crimson King (a nice early pressing to replace my beat up copy)

Matthew Sweet - Altered Beast (been looking for this for years)

 

Also picked up American Blues by the Star Killers (Julien Baker’s earlier band) from Shangri-La Records mail order and my test pressing of the new album by The Collection, Listen to the River finally came in the mail. Good week!
