You really love the soundtracks, don't you? Did you see all of the different variations for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood? Looked pretty good. Very 'pop' late 60's though, so not as much my thing.
Batman and Clockwork Orange I mostly bought because they were in the impulse-buy range (~$5) but yes, I enjoy older soundtracks from the 40s/50s like Casablanca, Hitchcock-movies etc and horror soundtracks. Soothing to put on.
Obviously instead of buying a bunch of cheap, worn records you should/could invest in something you really want but which is a bit more expensive.
You never buy soundtracks? The Once upon in Hollywood soundtrack is nice - with the clips from actual radio djs from the 60s introducing the songs. I've listened to it on Spotify and listened to QTs podcast breaking the soundtrack down.
I own Reservoir Dogs on vinyl and CD. And I think I have an old CD of Pulp Fiction too.
Reservoir and Pulp are two that I would buy and may get around to them at some point. I have the CDs. Generally I don't love soundtracks because the sound always seems to be uneven. I have the Big Chill because it was 2 bucks but it's pretty lifeless overall.
Just noticed the clockwork orange one is a german release. I knew the price and the pristine cover was to good to be true. I guess it's cute with a german title instead of the original. Well o well.

Some great stuff there. I love that pre-Neil Crazy Horse album! Morrison Hotel is my favorite Doors album and Who's Next... well, what needs to be said!!

Please comment on KISS Destroyer also, if you wish.
Morrison Hotel he said was in pretty bad shape but I bought it because it was cheap.
Who's Next I have on that deluxe CD that came out a few years back. But it's the best album they've done. Was close to picking up Quadrophenia, such amazing cover - it just makes you want to buy it. But I'm not a superfan.
Metallica The Black Album is a new release though I picked up at the local supermarket separate from the rest.

'Destroyer' was the first Kiss LP I ever bought, in about 1988. I was 11 years old! I'd been given 'Crazy Nights' as a Christmas present and my cousin recommended some of the older stuff. I bought 'Destroyer' and 'Love Gun' the same day. i think they were around 3.99 (UK pounds) each

The closest I've gotten to liking Kiss is The Replacements cover of "Black Diamond". :-)

Ha, yes it is a phenomenal record. I’ll Definitely put it on my short list.
Don't be fooled by the iconic cover. It's pretty bland. Has a song or two that's good. But it's nowhere near a masterpiece or among the best of that era:
Kurt Vile, Bottle It In, limited with pink/purple split vinyl.I thought I got this at a good price because of some ring-wear top and bottom despite being sealed. Turns out, they all look like that! So I really got a good deal on this one and although I've only had time to listen to a little of it, I can this this one is great- Loving it so far!

And I bought a new stylus - both these things matter- don’t trash your records with a crappy needle and stupid records sleeves!!!
Good call! My understanding is that at 1,000 hours of play time, the stylus should be replaced.
And good inner and outer sleeves- for sure. I'm a fairly frugal/ thrifty kind of guy with a fairly modest but decent stereo set up, but when it comes to LP sleeves, I go pretty much all out with Sleeve City's "Diskeeper Ultimate Audiophile" inner sleeves and their "Ultimate Outer 5.0" outer sleeves. I figure , besides enjoying my LP's in this lifetime, I'm really just the temporary caretaker of my collection and hope it goes on for another few generations or more after my time.

Was planning on buying the Nirvana Unplugged 2LP reissue today but just too expensive. Colored version is $35 plus shipping to UK. Nothing wrong with my 1st white vinyl press but would have liked to add it to the collectiom.
