izzygirl Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 This day doesn't exist over here (neither there are record stores anymore I'm afraid). I think the last record I bought was Bon Jovi's Bounce. (We need a facepalm smiley) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Len B'stard Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Ive never owned a record player in my life, i wish i had though cuz they say they sound much better. I think i had a great propensity to be a big viynl nerd in my younger days but i was just never exposed to it so it never happened and now i got too many football matches to get on to be bothered, then again maybe its worth it cuz its not like i listen to a huge lot of new music.

chevelle Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Smoke weed play vinyl.I only managed to pick up the Coheed demo record, since both stores I checked didn't have the live Deftones record in stock. Gonna see what the shop closest to me still has left either tomorrow or Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real McCoy Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 (edited) Local indie store near me is too damn expensive anymore, and the selection has literally been the same for years.I ended up going to FYE and scored three used CDs for a total of 13 bucks and change.

Johnny Drama Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqsSTOv-wWMIs that Under the Cherry Moon. Best Prince album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Drama Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 I love the album. Up there with Purple Rain, Sign, 1999 for me. Saw a vinyl of 1999 today. The CD by itself cost $10. I got it on CD in a pack for 20 dollars with People Rain, Parade, Lovesexy and Diamonds and Pearls. The vinyl cost 42 bucks. Ripoff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen the same albums sitting there for years and their catalog isn't terribly deeper than you'd find at Walmart most times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Drama Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 My favorites from Parade are I Wonder U, Girls & Boys, Life Can Be So Nice and of course Kiss.Looks like the only album you didn't list from that time period is Around The World, too psychedelic?Gold Experience is one of his better albums too.Life Could Be So Nice, I Wonder U and Sometimes it Snows in April are my faves on Parade. Especially the former - Sheila E. drives the fuck of of thay song with the double kick and the cowbell.I simply didn't note Around the World because I dont have it. I'm sure its great. More than the Revolution itself, I think Wendy and Lisa were the best thing he could have had in his pocket and he ended up royally fucking himself. Especially on Parade, you could see that progression with them becoming his equals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, FLAC files sound 'cleaner', but I prefer the way vinyl sounds more raw, and dirty.If I may be so bold Lenny, I'd have to guess that you'd like vinyl sound quality. Especially considering your music tastes.My little town is gifted with three record stores, and between the three of them you could find anything. One is a used record store, with thousands of artists and albums(mostly pre-2000's stuff, very classic rock heavy), one is mostly indie post 2000 stuff, with weekly new releases, and one has your typical popular music.All locally owned Edited April 21, 2013 by LiveFromNormal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stiff Competition Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 If anyone has an extra copy or knows a store with one in stock and could pick me up a copy of the porno for pyros lp, I'd really appreciate it. It's the only one on my list I didn't get and it's the one I wanted the most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just been a joke the last few years.When FYE has a better selection, there's a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Thought I'd dig this thread up since it's a good place to discuss vinyl LPs.I'm a HUGE vinyl fan and RSD is always a big deal for me. I'm blessed with a lot of really solid record stores here in Detroit and I buy pretty much all my music as vinyl if it's available on the format.
