So I went to play my Riot Act vinyl record and...

...and remembered for the umpteenth time I don't have one.

Quite often, I like to sit down and selectively play songs off albums on my record player in an order where they really work together to create an aural mood- sort of like "be your own DJ" sessions where I really focus on each song (which is kind of how I mostly listen to music anyway) as they unfold in sequence. So the other day I had this great run of songs going and next up was...


...BUT NO! I don't have "Save You" on a vinyl record. Argh! (Yes, I have the CD but that doesn't work for the record listening experience.)

Once again, I scoured the internet and the least expensive copy... (and believe me, I have links to a LOT of vinyl sites) ...NO RIOT ACT UNDER $250!

Pearl Jam, 10 Club, Sony... whom ever... PLEASE RELEASE THE MIDDLE PERIOD PEARL JAM RECORDS ON VINYL!

    No, I usually pick one song from a record and then go to another record and play something that follows nicely. It gives each song some breathing room. I've done this for EVER but not too long ago I read about how R Crumb owns mostly old blues 78 RPM records and someone asked him why just those. He said it was because that's the music he likes and having to put on one song at a time forces him to really sit and absorb the music. I thought that was cool.

    I wish this will happen and I sometime can play Riot Act, No Code and Yield on my record player.

    Sadly, I can just call LB, Backspacer and Into the Wilde my own so as I didn´t get a chance for a mystery vinyl I am still hoping for reissues too.
    As much as I would like to get all of them on my table I am in principle not willing to participate in doing something like flipping or paying ridiculous prices.
    I am just not a friend of making lots of money with things that´s not mine but I know that´s the way it goes...(found the word bamboozle...sounds funny)
    So I like seeing people trading their stuff and sometimes being generous here...like MazdoK!
    Maybe I am sometimes a little bit too idealisic but it don´t hurt sb ;)

    So I absolute agree with brianlux and hope PJ will release their records on vinyl for us!!!

    :peace:
