Used records and reels I've bought online this and last month...

Got a few new arrivals this week. My taste is pretty much all over the place, but I generally listen to a lot of indie/alternative rock. I've been trying to expand my collection to incorporate some of the good hip-hop from the 90's that I grew up on. I picked up a couple of reissued albums from that period...

Fugees - The Score
Outkast - Aquemini

Both records sound incredible and hearing them on vinyl for the first time is a real treat!

Then I've got a few albums in the mail...

Sufjan Stevens - Illinoise (reissue)
Jenny Lewis - The Voyager
Rilo Kiley - More Adventurous
Houndmouth - Little Neon Limelight
David Byrne & St. Vincent - Love This Giant


Happy Friday everyone!

The new Cheap Trick 10" EP is about what I saw, and again, I have no way to even get to Boise, much less spend as much as it will probably cost. I would have to settle for a normal copy later...I heard some if it and liked it, it sounded solid.

Was gifted the Maiden release, for doing my part by bringing in the scaffolding this year.

Looking forward to giving this a spin.

What a great gift, Ben. Your buds at work know what you like.

My latest buy is a $50 180 gram pressing of Gordon Lightfoot's Sundown. I've probably got an older copy of this somewhere, but I wanted to hear what a modern version of this 70s record would sound like. The one I just bought is said to be made from the analog master tape, so no digital in between. Apparently the master was EQ'd and used Dolby A, as it was a dub off the original multitrack tapes I'm guessing.

Too cool Scott, Gordon has one of those magical voices that I would love to hear on the Summits! Couple that with his great story telling and awesome production on that Lp, you have a winner! Try to find that older copy, you might be surprised how good it sounds buddy!

Cool!!! I did not go for this as funds are wicked limited but I did get a few things from RSD. The Runaways red colored 7" and the Halestorm release. Can't wait for them to get here

I did finally score the Warrant - Cherry Pie UK picture disc I have been chasing for 10 years+ now. Always seems to go for way more then I can afford but I scored it with a $19.99 BIN this morning

Never heard of that one...

12" single. Taken from the soundtrack for the movie Last Action Hero, with Arnold Schwarzenegger. Been on my watch/want list for years. Really good live version of For Those About To Rock, taken from a Moscow concert on the B side.

I finally nabbed this sealed 1977 CBS Records country compilation from Shuga Records (shugarecords.com) in Chicago, a most groovy place...Adam says it's Record Store Day and they are SWAMPED...in case you missed it.
