holy fuckballs is this fucking cranked right now on my player !!!!
Sweet record! :thumbup: I'm going to get this badboy soon too, did you get the normal black version or the clear?
well I bought the clear version, or so I thought, only 1 of the LPs was clear, the second LP with the etched 4th side was black, so I guess they can't put the etched pic on the clear vinyl? Did anyone else buy the clear vinyl 2 LP and have the same thing?
oh well, it sounds fucking awesome though, I cranked that shit
Hey Smarchee, I have the clear version and both LPs are clear so sounds like there was a bit of a mix up with yours. Mind you the etching looks better on black IMO

well damn I want them both clear, I'd rather that then see the etching.
That was a $45 record, I wonder if I should ask if I could replace it, what do you think? Would you do that if you were in my shoes?
I think I might phone and talk to the manager and see if there are any options

Yeah definately worth chasing it up now as the clear versions will be out stock pretty quick. Here's proof they both should be clear! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZuKsY3IZNLo

one of my all-time fav albums, the best chill out album I have ever heard, I just put it on as back ground music for reading or just staring at the tv, or my lava lamp or the view from my balcony
I actually ordered one of discogs for $4 and it came to $15 prob with shipping but it was warped and sounded like shit, seller said it was kinda warped but I wanted it so bad, so I bought another one on e-bay
this album just is perfect for something in the background, love ambient/trance music

One of my favourite albums of the last 20 years (and one of the greatest Australian albums of all time IMO) has been released on vinyl for the first time:
This thing just sounds too damn good
I picked up the "Hi Fi Way" and "Hourly, Daily" reissues too but "Sound As Ever" is the one that will always be a special record for me
I think these boxes look good. Make sure you're not moving on a super hot day though ... I had to move my collection of circa 230 vinyls from Germany to the States last October. I took the ones that are most valuable and dearest to my heart with me on the plane in a record case (it didn't fit the hand luggage measures like I thought it would, unfortunately, and in the end I had to pay 575 Euros more for my extra baggage, but it was not only the LPs and totally worth it). Another couple I carefully packed, three at one time, in cardboard record boxes and stacked them in my container moving boxes, and the rest, I sent in small packages by mail. I am so happy I didn't ship everything with my container, cause it got hit by Sandy while sitting in the port in New York waiting for customs :shock: It was good that I packed everything in plastic bags too before I packed it into the cardboard boxes, otherwise I would have lost a lot more than just a handful ... I don't know how big your collection is, but I wouldn't go for the cheapest solution possible. Actually, shipping single packages of three lps from Germany was so super cheap, I would do it all over again (3-7 Euros a package, it counted as a letter). If you're using these boxes, maybe stack a piece of cardboard in there every now and then, and rather pack one box more than putting too many in one. Best of luck for your move!
Please, Pearl Jam, consider a Benaroya Hall vinyl reissue!
Wish me luck Jamily Faithfull - I'm spinning the wheel today and gonna drift on down to a vinyl town, pick up a momento of former grunge days and glory. It's a risky mission and I may yet get shot. Pray for peace and resolution before I leave home and let's see what the vinyl gods reward me with. This time the revolution may well be televised. They got me on the run sweet brother but me and my Ariston stay two steps ahead of the competition. Love and glory to the eternal wax daddio!
PEACE

I'd like to get a little more familiar with this band. My wife says she knows one of the band members. Any suggestions as to where to start?
my favourite is this album, Pork Soda is another good album too, except lots of weird lyrics and odd song structures, but Les Claypool on bass is worth the listen, he's incredible, what he can do with the bass

I would definitely work on getting that switched. When you're paying $45 for a record, it should definitely not have one wrong disc! .... Do both discs have the same number on them?? Or did someone actually replace the clear with a black from a different pressing? I'm thinking it must be the latter, no? Like, kind of scam-like.

Been on a vinyl buying hiatus for a while....just feel the need to comment so I feel like I am contributing since all my funds have gone towards posters :wave:
Today the mountain comes to me - surprise stall in local market with a couple of gems - Led Zep I French first edition Plum label, and Led Zep III plum label (cover is without the revolving insert - hence cheaper price)
I haggled him down to £25 for the two - the exact amount a new record seems to fetch these days. I have a good feeling about the sonics of these two, but I won't be able to try them until later in the week. (I'm on 'holiday').
Peace and love brethren

Oh man.... thanks a lot. My almost uncontrollable desire to spend a bundle on a really good copy of Led Zeppelin III is again rearing its ugly head now. Can't hold off on that one much longer. Congrats!

Every man needs a 'best' copy of Led Zep III surely!
Am looking forward to spinning this - It looks pretty decent - I have an early Led Zep II which I inherited from a friend's deceased Aunt - and it is definitely one of my top 5 records sound wise. I imagine it was bought on the day of release, and then sat unplayed and gathering dust for years and years!
In our defence - a healthy vinyl addiction is surely a damn sight better than some other habits! :twisted:

Everyone does! To be fair, they usually are male, so it's somewhat understandable.
When I go into record stores the men who work at them often assume I'm buying my records as gifts for my boyfriend. :roll: When I tell them it's for me, they then make comments about how I have good taste in music, like they're surprised. Now THAT is annoying. :x

I'm laughing to myself because in my mind being a male record collector seems a bit like being a sad anorak wearing Train Spotter, whereas being a female record collector seems more like being a sassy and mysterious groove chick!
