Ooh I’d love to find some Sven Wunder, will keep my eyes out. Didn’t even think to see if it was being pressed

It sounds incredible. Well worth the money.

I have the Fuzz Club Red Rocks '23 box set I’m considering selling to make some more room if anyone is interested, mint condition, all shows with the big slip case!

Trying to slow down the train but still grabbed a few things yesterday. Hard to ignore a record store that gives you a 20% off used / 10% off new offer for your birthday month!

I accidentally picked up the 2 LP Nonagon Infinity Alien Warp edition. Didn’t realize that all but one of the demos on disc 2 were previously released. Anyone looking for this edition? $35 shipped (that’s $5 under Disccogs media + free shipping). I’m also open to trades. Hit me up!

Man, some of you love to gobble up whatever you see. Meanwhile, I haven’t even filled up a single crate with my records.

One of my most recent purchases was Reckoning by the Dead. Managed to get it from Barnes and Noble for just $13 after a myriad of discounts. I also got some singles from the p(doom) online store, like the Red Rocks '22 and Set/Gilgamesh. Thing is, I kinda wish I’d skipped the latter in favor of the 1 LP Silver Cord, because I had no idea that edition had hidden tracks.

Recent groovy action:

The Byrds - Sweetheart Of the Rodeo ('70 repress)
Camel - Rain Dances
Vassar Clements - Westport Drive
Commodores - Natural High
Chris Corsano - The Key (Became The Important Thing [& Then Just Faded Away])
Peter Gabriel - So
Jimi Hendrix - Axis: Bold As Love (80s repress)
Gil Scott-Heron / Brian Jackson - Winter In America (reissue)
Ramsey Lewis - Solar Wind
Mighty Clouds Of Joy - Cloudburst
Toto - Dune (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

Also picked up a compilation of Bulgarian horos and ruchenitsas that really blew my away. Just lights out.

BIG Goodwill find yesterday:

Charles Mingus - Pithecanthropus Erectus (OG '56 Atlantic black labels).

Plays with more surface noise than I typically tolerate, but for $2 I’m not complaining.

How’s that MFDOOM sound?!?

Ive slowed way dow on my vinyl acquisition quest lately but that is tempting…

Sounds really good! I need to spin it again soon.

Is anyone waiting in a line Friday morning for RSD? What’s on your Want List?

The Gizz airplane single looks fun, and it has great tracks on it, but I’m not sure if I need it lol

I’m definitely after Dylan Freewheelin’ and the 7” Masters of War.

Both Grateful Dead releases and Jazz Dispensery comp are also ones I’m interested in.

Not waiting in line but I’ll be there for sure. Looking for the Talking Heads and Wilco/Jeff Tweedy/Daniel Johnston comps. Maybe the Dylan ones. I usually find what I want eventually.

Was excited about the KGLW one at first but its a lot of money for a few bootleg tracks. It’s one of those RSD First releases too. Not a big priority for me.

I’m also not waiting in line but will be stalking a few shops to see if I can pick up my shortlist:

Ween, Wilco/Tweedy, Charlie Haden, W.I.T.C.H.

My “maybes” include David Johansen and the Harry Smiths and that Ayler/Cherry box.

Was able to grab the Talking Heads and Wilco releases. Also got Robert Fripp - Exposure. My store wasn’t that crowded and they had a bunch of everything. Thought it was going to be a bit harder.

They didn’t have the Gizz release though :person_shrugging:

Nice work. I found Ween and W.I.T.C.H. Couldn’t get my mitts on the Wilco but I found it a few hours later on Ebay for $32, which wasn’t too steep.

I now own Charlie Brown Christmas lol! It’s a cool release with a pop up on the inside of the jacket.

Also bought both Dylan, Jazz Dispensery, and the Grateful Dead on CD! Only waited an hour before the shop opened, and the line was huge after me so I’m glad i got there a bit early. The six people in from of me all wanted Wicked, Billie, And Chappell.

Pretty much everything I wanted. Passed on the Gizz so another fan can grab it today.
