    it's largely due to eddie that i liked to jump off of things as a child...

    Yeah the Deep throught the years has a bunch of Who covers. I think I paid 120.00 for HR in 95'. I was just wondering if anyone else had it. I was really wondering how many ppl have even heard of it?

  • i paid 225 in 96 for it at a record store.
  • Bought Hallucinogenic Recipe in 1993. At the time, it was the most awesome thing I owned. Period.

    I looked at that thing in a display case for probably two months at an indie record store in downtown Portland called The Ozone (which is long gone). One day a store employee let me take it out and thumb through it. I nearly creamed myself.

    I finally saved enough to buy it at $145. Two Pearl Jam-insane friends and I drove to the store after school one day (he had his license, I was still 15) to get it. But it was gone. I was devastated.

    It popped up at another record store about a month later and I snagged it.

    Back then I think it was the holy grail of Pearl Jam artifacts, although the quality of the content is questionable. Some of the Bad Radio demos are in really bad shape, but that's what I was really after when I took the plunge.

    Those were the days, man, when finding really good, rare Pearl Jam content was a treasure hunt.

    I look at my bootleg collection today and sigh. It's so obsolete.

    Or am I looking at it wrong? Are these items rare and valuable now?

    And while we're talking Hallucinogenic Recipe, who do you suppose made that box set? Who do you supposed had that material and had the wherewithal to package it in a box set and sell it (illegally?)
  • Now that I think of it, it might have been the spring of 1994 when I got it. Either way, it was my sophomore year in high school.
