Sunny Day Real Estate - LP2 & Diary





Latest one I bought was Where The Wild Things Are from Insound. I got all the Nirvana pressed vinyl when I was in Greece back in '95. Milk white MTV Unplugged LP is one of my favorite ones.

I love vinyl, but have to room for it. I get Pearl Jam and that is about it. I wish I could get more, but the space in my house is limited.

yep picked up two of these

The MTV unplugged B2B version is black - higher quality vinyl than the others - though I think some of the other older versions sound better. If you are able to get one - the In Utero Steve Albini mix is one of my favorite (and one of most rare) records

The Tool Aenima - can be found at AuralExploits, but you gotta be quick when they restock it (which is random) because it will sell out in few secs - keep in mind the one they sell is probably a bootleg - around $35 - if you have the chips, go for the orig press!

i believe Music Direct is having pre-orders - these are for the 2009 re-issues of reissued re-released reissues

Be very weary of that Tool Vinyl, almost all the colored vinyls are bootlegs. Don't overpay. I have made that mistake once. :shock:

My latest obsession (other than Backspacer of course) is Sky Blue Sky by Wilco. I know it's not their newest but it's their best. I highly recommend...

I love the perception that people have that vinyl is "coming back" it never went anywhere, I have been constantly been buying vinyl since I was a kid in the 70's, when cd's came out in the 80's I still bought vinyl, when vinyl became less attractive to consumers in the 90's, it was still available and I still bought it, in fact in the late 90's and early 2000's there were so many re issues on 180G or 200G vinyl it was awesome.

My friends and I have been buying from Music Direct a lot the past 5 or 6 years, the Austin Record Convention comes to town 2 times a year, Half Price Books here in Austin has a pretty good used vinyl selection and Waterloo Records and several other record shops here in Austin have great selection new records, I have Backspacer on cd and I am buying it on vinyl next week, along with MMJ:At Dawn, The Who:Who's Next and one of The Kinks re-issues, either Misfits or Sleepwalker, oh and I just bought a used (2008) Miles Davis Bitches Brew 180G at Waterloo for $15.00 in PERFECT condition, so to me vinyl is not coming back, it never went anywhere to begin with! But I'm glad more people are excited about it again! I have over about 2,000 records and it's been an addiction since I was a kid.

http://www.musicdirect.com/ I LOVE this site to buy records.

covered in bliss

to make a long story short, my brother gave me over 100 records last week.... some of them are VERY obscure and totally out there.

No Pearl Jam but 4 Cat Stevens along with 6 Led Zeppelin and tons of other stuff...been sneezing for days!

I only started getting into wax. Started with the Ten Legacy. Now I have Backspacer too. So I have bookended my PJ vinyl, with no books! I guess I'll have to win the lottery before I can afford Benny or ITW. Oh well, maybe one day.

I've been eyeing Black Crowes Before The Frost.........Until The Freeze double LP. It's the only version of the record that actually has a physical copy of the second record. The cd only comes with the one disc, and then a code for a digital download for the second. I might have to snap it up.

My Dad gave me all his old vinyl years ago, and I STUPIDLY gave it all to a friend of mine (not owning a turntable at the time). Led Zep, Hendrix, Beatles, Guess Who, you name it.

Hugh Freaking Dillon

I took the plunge. I just emailed him and asked for them all back in case he didn't want them! We'll see what he says!!! This thread made me do it!!!

well it really is making a come back. more people are getting into vinyl then ever and for a lot of them its there first experience with the format. i think that people are generally refering to its resurgence in popularity. in 2008 there was 2 million vinyl albums sold, the most ever since nielsen started tracking it.

Just picked up the first 4 white stripes albums on vinyl. reissues were only 30 a pop so i had to get them. Spinning elephant right now. Btw i have been on the vinyl kick for about 5 years now. Picked up Neil Youngs freedom on vinyl for 10 bucks last week from my local record shop Randy's(great find). Probably have spent around $600 in the past 6 months there. :shock: funny because i make 7.50 an hour at the liquor store
