Iron MikeyJ Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 I also was just thinking I would like to get Get A Grip. I was hoping it was less than 50 bucks tbh.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Comstock Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 I got The Blessed Hellride today. Awesome album, and it's on white vinyl, but it had a big smudge Also got In Flames by Kandle, it's got a great winter time atmosphere so I'm looking forward to playing it while I have some kind of christmas drink Grabbed some CD's too, including Slash's new album.

RussTCB Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 Probably the least amount as possible, from what I've read their always seems to be a minimal amount. But if I could pick, I'd say 10~20 range would be enough. I'm not doing these to sell or to promote my band. I'm doing them for me, and I would give the rest of the band ones also, plus a few select fans. The lowest amount I've read online is for orders of 100. If thats as low as it goes, so be it I suppose. But 100 means 80 of them sitting in my basement.Finally got a chance to talk to my buddy about this yesterday. He said the smallest run he's ever heard of woudl be about 300 records. He says a 7" will run about $800 and a full length LP would be around $1200-$1400. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron MikeyJ Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Ouch, thanks for the info though. I still want to do it, but maybe we do the recording ourselves (we do have a top of the line 24 track machine), then place an order for LP's. I did find one on the net that would do an order of 100. I know our singer wants to have the recordings done professionaly, but I feel that is a bit of a waste of money. I myself, have let go of superstar rock dreams. Even Slash himself said it was a lot easier in the 70's and 80's, today their is just too much music out there to really get noticed. Besides I am about be 33, married with kids, I'm not really interested in touring anymore. So bottom line, I'm just making music for myself, my band, and our fans. I can call myself a successful musician if I can play an album's worth of MY music on my turntable along with my zep and gnr vinyls. I just gotta talk the rest of the band into that plan....

Iron MikeyJ Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 The cheapest Get a Grip I've found on the net was for 78 bucks, ouch. I wouldn't think it would be going for that much.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted September 30, 2014 Author Share Posted September 30, 2014 Picked up the Oasis-(What's The Story) Morning Glory? remaster. I'm not sure I'll get to play it tonight, but hoping to soon. I've wanted this on vinyl for a long, long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make it a full double LP or cut a song or 2 so it can fit on 1 LP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a double LP right? Isn't the run time only 50 minutes? That's only 12-minutes per side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather have the whole album spread out across 2 LPs than either be missing music or have it crammed on to 1 LP and sound awful. That was the case with a lot of late 80s, early 90s albums and stuff as recent as Chinese. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iron MikeyJ Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Ok guys, just got some spending money for my bday yesterday, so of course I want to add to my vinyl collection. Does anyone have any bad or horror stories with imports from Discogs? Right now I'm looking at Imports of Gnr Lies, TSI, and Aerosmith Big Ones. I just want to hear what you guys think before I go a head with the purchase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want to hear what you guys think before I go a head with the purchase.The only advice I have about Discogs is that in my experience feedback is deadly accurate. If you see more than a few people complaining that the records were not in the shape advertised or the sellers takes too long to ship, it will happen to you as well. In my early days of buying on there, I took a couple of chances and ended up really wishing I'd would have just believed the feedback.Also: I would love to get Big Ones someday too.

Powerage5 Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Okay, I'm gonna do the unthinkable and ask a CD question in here Going down the rabbit hole that is the internet this afternoon, I ended up looking at the Discogs page for releases from North Korea. One CD by the Korean People's Army Band actually has a copy for sale in the Discogs marketplace, for $24. The CD is coming from Greece, so probably add on approximately $15 shipping. Here's the question part - since we have a trade embargo with North Korea, is it technically illegal for me to order this? Surely if the package gets checked at customs it will be confiscated. What are the odds of this happening do you guys think? Is there any buyer protection through Discogs if I never receive the CD? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chevelle Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 I just pre-ordered Thom Yorke's new album on vinyl the other day. Apparently it comes in the same kind of electrostatic bag as used in computer parts, along with the usual special packaging and inserts. Pretty pumped about this one.
