Your latest vinyl record purchase thread

Got it second hand from an Oxfam shop for £3.99

 

I last got BOBBY VEE - Take good care of my baby

 

first purchases for 2015.

Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Watch
Moody Blues - This Is The Moody Blues
New Riders Of The Purple Sage - New Riders Of The Purple Sage
New Riders Of The Purple Sage - Powerglide
Small Faces - Sha-La-La-La-Lee
Sparks - Kimono My House
Traffic - Best Of Traffic

very pleased to find the two New Riders Of The Purple Sage Lp's in the Netherlands. besides the Eagles and Byrds it's unlikely to find good countryfied rock in second hand record stores.

 

I gave up on finding a good sounding Bat Out Of Hell after trying 3 different (US,UK and Dutch) pressings and reading a bunch of topics about the album on the Steve Hoffman music forum, all available vinyl versions sound very thin with hardly any bass and a fatiguing EQ bump in the upper midrange. the SACD and HD Tracks version seem to be a little better than the vinyl and cd's but aren't sounding great either.

 

I hear ya!!!!!

Yesterday I got another country Album

Slim Whitman - "Birmingham Jail and other country favorites" (1966) - Mono

Excellent!!

 

I got 4 records today

1) Styx - Equinox (EXCELLENT -- I HAVE ALREADY LISTENEND TO IT)
2) Genesis - Duke (I have been wanting this for awhile)
3) Genesis - ...and then there were three...
4) Pat Benetar - Precious time (I have this on cassette also)


I do feel guilty however.... On my Styx Album is a sticker from a record store that used to be in town here and it has thier price listed... $6.99 and here I got it for 99 cents!!

I do feel guilty getting all this beautiful media for almost nothing,I feel like I am stealing it/not respecting it!!
