Good album, what do you think of it Smarchee? I like it, but it's pretty out there and not quite as good as their classic Loveless... (I like the record sleeve too).

I like it alot reesdog, mightily impressed with how it sounds and there are 4 songs that are top notch IMO:

Only Tomorrow

Maybe my greatest day of collecting vinyl......



Mothers of the Invention - Weasels Ripped My Flesh



Beck - Sea Change Limited Mo-Fi release on black vinyl

.....and the grand-daddy of them all:

BENAROYA HALL #1781 $250



Destroyed by faulty water heater.

Vinyl before cleaning......



Vinyl after cleaning.....



The box and sleeves are toast.
No scratches, none are warped, labels are damn near perfect. And they sound quiet, clean and beautiful.

So happy, my Pearl Jam vinyl collection is now complete. I have all official vinyl releases.

Holy shit!!! That is a real accomplishment to have every official release. :shock: Congrats!! Benny Hall for $250?! How'd that happen, lucky man? Even with trashed packaging, that is a steal if the vinyl is sound. :thumbup:

Nice! Who cares about the box when the records look (and sound) as good as that. Congrats on the deal

In my top two Pavement albums... Who love Pavement?

Second-hand:

NM condition, remastered, reissue from 2007.

No love for Pavement eh... Oh well, I still dig them.

I love coming back onto this thread after a week or so away and seeing what everyone has picked up. This one is a masterpiece, probably one of my favourite records of the 90s.

I saw Pavement at the 1995 Reading Festival, not long after Wowee Zowee came out, and they were fantastic. There was a power cut at one point so the band spent the time jousting with drumsticks until the power came back! It was one of the greatest festival line ups I've ever seen. As well as Smashing Pumpkins, Beck, Tricky and the very new Foo Fighters earlier on the weekend, check out the line up for the Sunday:

Blind Melon
White Zombie
Babes In Toyland
Buffalo Tom
Mudhoney
Pavement
Soundgarden
Neil Young/Pearl Jam (Mirrorball set)

Yep it's a beauty of an album alright.

And wow, cool fesitval line-up! Went to the Reading Festival a few times myself, saw The Chilli Peppers, Manic Street Preachers, Beck, Elbow and a load more I can't remember because I was wasted. But never with a line up as good as the one you've mentioned. Ahhh the mid-nineties....what a goldern era for music! :thumbup:

Have been wanting this for quite a while, have seen it on Ebay etc, but kinda pricey. Then stumbled across it at one of my local record shops, in great condition, so was a no-brainer to grab it.

Second-hand:

Beck - Sea Change.

Special Limited Edition from 2009, numbered 5031.

You and I think alike my friend. My new copy arrived on Thursday, I listened to it last night, what a great album. The MO-FI pressing is simply superb. It might be my best sounding record in the collection. :thumbup:
