What's up with all this fake vinyl I've been seeing lately. Saw a fake Avocado at a record store yesterday, looked like shit, probably sounded that way to.

    Yield - White Vinyl
    Binaural - Orange Vinyl
    S/T - Blue Vinyl
    Lost Dogs - Blue, Green, and Yellow Vinyl versions

    There are probably more.

    Mainly because they refuse to reissue the vinyl releases and people don't want to pay the ridiculous prices the originals go for so enterprising people found a market.

    Blue, Red, Yellow, Green and White versions of Lost Dogs. Taste the rainbow.
    And yes, they are shit.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    I paid about $60.00 for a white copy of Lost Dogs, and out of all the bootlegs this one sounds the best.

    The irony is people are paying ridiculous prices for the bootleg LPs.

    It is an impressive list, but you could easily put multiple shows per line to condense it down a bit.

    Anyway....yeah, the bootleg prices are ridiculous and it actually make you have to be more cautious in buying any sealed vinyl because you really don't know what you might be getting. I for one would never buy one for those ridiculous prices

    How do those of us not fully experienced in the art of sniffing out dupes tell if something we are buying is the Original or a Bootleg?

    First would be the colored vinyl. IIRC there are no official studio albums on colored vinyl, except for the new 'coke' Ten that Newbury released.

    EDIT:White Backspacer, Red Lightning Bolt. Colored, and GITD PJ20 are also official

    Second, there are usually subtle differences with the cover. Like S/T and Binaural have glossy covers with no cat. # on the spine. Binaural also has 'Pearl Jam' on the front cover like the CD. The Yield is not die-cut and again has no cat# on spine.

    I don't have the unofficial Lost Dogs or No code, so I couldn't help you there, but I'm sure there are noticeable difference to those that do research.

    Research is the key, don't just buy blindly.

    Don't forget 10c put out the White Backspacer and Red Lightning Bolt. And the colored PJ20 soundtrack. Not that those have been bootlegged yet.
