    1999 Live Stones, with a ton of rarities.  This was a warm up show before a couple of big Wembley gigs.  Great sound, great performance.  Amazon had id for $21.  For a double live record, can't beat that.

    Had this on CD since it was a bootleg.  Great show of course.  Again, an Amazon deal.  $25 for a double live record.  They are also selling the box set for $66.

    My parents bought me an original pressing of Vitalogy sealed. Had to crack it open and play side 1. Sounded amazing!! Now I’m going to clean it and play side two later 

    Of all the PJ albums, this is the one where the original is SO much better than the shitty reissue, that the reissue is basically just garbage in comparison. I remember getting the reissue to just kinda save my original from too much play, and after one spin, I gave the reissue away for free, in disgust. 

    paid up off discogs for a near mint og a few years ago. my fave record containing their best song. 
    I have this one from before the 2-disc reissue. But the cover is very wonky so I always thought it to be a bootleg or a bad earlier reissue. 

    Will have to find it and see what was wonky about it. Don’t remember clearly.

    Check out this film if you get a chance some time.  It's excellent!

    I am floating around the room on a drug called Great Sounding Music.  I've had Achtung Baby on CD for a while and its good, but this 2018 European vinyl pressing simply blows me away.  This has to be one of the very best sounding LPs in my collection.  OUTSTANDING!

    It's an excellent pressing, no doubt.  Great bass and great record.  Notice that every song is a love song, but all from different directions.

    Yeah, good point!  I'm still slowly (on purpose) reading Bill Flanagan's U2 At the End of the World.  At the time, Bono was having a hard time weaving through the conflicting roles between home life as Paul the husband/dad with music work/touring life as Bono. Edge had divorced not too far back.   Adam was crashing into love, living the quintessential rock star life while questioning his loyalty to the band.  And Larry was just trying to keep the band he loved together.  So yeah, love songs from different directions.  Fascinating! 

    Another thing that intrigues me is where Flanagan talks about "Until the End of the World" being about a conversation between Jesus and Judas.  That's possibly common knowledge by now, but I'm really late to the game with this record, so that struck me as really interesting.

    If that's common knowledge, I never heard it, but I'm not a U2 savant.  Very interesting, but also great song on a record chock full of them.

    I was pretty stoked to find this excellent copy of Diamond Dogs today as well as a super clean silver label GSTQ single (because, you know, you can never have enough of those). And after over 40 years of collecting Sex Pistols records I finally bought a stock UK copy of Flogging A Dead Horse. I also picked  up a signed Alex Van Halen book on the cheap too.

    Nice pile. What is that black sabbath?
