lol men without hats

It was $2. I had to.

I'd have bought it too if I was on a mass vinyl buying kick tbh.

:beer:

Françoise Hardy? I didn't think anyone in here gave a **** about her!
I've been getting into her very recently. It's pretty cool, but I'm still a complete beginner with her discography.

She's got some fans on MB, like Rostasi, .bob, Neapolitan, myself, and Exo. She has a fantastic voice.

That's great! I never caught on to that. I got a 5 CD box-set of her albums for my birthday and have been listening to her music for the past two weeks. There's a very special vibe to a lot of it. I'm liking it more and more.

This is how I found out about her.

what a movie

I re-watched the movie not even ½ a year ago, but I didn't make the connection and didn't realize it was Hardy.

Stopped by Human Head records in Brooklyn which is now my favorite record store. Must stop ever time I'm near there. Picked up three new ones for only $28.

Pink Floyd - Ummagumma
Frank Zappa/Mothers - Roxy & Elsewhere
Tony Williams - The Joy of Flying

Because of economics, I had to sell most of my record collection years ago but not before I converted everything to Mp3. What was left I donated recently due to moving. I did keep my Beatles related stuff though. It's a combination of original Capitol and Apple reissues.

I did have an original copy of Introducing the Beatles which, incredibly enough, I bought at the cutout rack at Kresge's in the seventies. Unfortunately, I managed to lose the album somehow. The one album that would have had some value and I lost it, go figure.

Is that your photo?

I can't even play my vinyls. I just put some up on the wall l0l

Not my photo. I'm too lazy to take photos and that was the only one online that showed the color of the record.

Fair enough m8.

I have about 7,000 LPs at present, though I've purged several hundred to trim the fat. Using a Denon DP-60L rosewood table with an Ortofon 2M Red. I've gone through a few McIntosh integrated and power amplifiers but for the last few years, I've been sticking with a vintage Yamaha integrated unit that I've had since my first ventures into vinyl in high school. For speakers, I'm using a beefy pair of Focal 814v floor speakers which really work well in my listening room.

In the thrifting heyday (now long passed), I assembled a solid collection of classic rock, blues, and jazz, as well as a number of "why'd they bother?" oddball LPs. From there I got into collecting 1960s synth and other early electronic records, which got me into musique concrete and kosmische musik.

In college, I picked up all of Pfunk's extended catalog and a lot of great funk classics before my descent into the madness of electronic and ambient music which to date makes up the majority of my collection. I've an appraised static database of the entire collection and I cataloged my top 500 LPs on Discogs, but my rarer titles don't have entries on the site so I'll eventually have to add them manually.

I'm not really into it anymore. I think that the compulsive collecting was an attempt to fill a void in my life that I've since satisfied. (Which is good news because I was shelling out more than $1600 a year on wax.) Recently I've been developing a music journal - a living document cataloging my exploration and discoveries which I hope can serve as a legacy of mine once I'm gone. It feels like a more productive and satisfying use of my musical energy.

But I'll always have a special place in my heart for those shiny black discs.

Here's my Discogs collection.

Vinyl is the way to go,I can never have to many records-LP'S-45's.

You must have a bigass house.

I bought a bunch of records to sell through a dude who cleans out dead people houses. Lots of stuff to name that I won't right now...

BUT

The biggest score was an original copy of The Grodeck Whipperjenny's self titled album. They're James Brown's backup band.

It's not in super great condition. Very noisy play but it can be cleaned. If I do clean it, it could be worth over $200. The most it sold for was almost $350. If I do decide to sell it. It'll be an eBay auction so that I might get the most bang out of it.

Still probably the best find I've scored.

Well done mate hope you get a decent amount of $$$ for it.

This sounds fantastic on wax.

Tristan ghosted me. Were you serious about buying Jane live?

Right now I'd sell it for $100 but I really want to see if I can clean it. Plus, I like having it right now lol. Feels nice to have something this rare. The cleaning is the difference between $100 and $200. I'll let you know what happens.

Lol no Exo I'd never buy anything from you.

My feelings are hurt.

I'd feel like a sleazeball if I was that one dude soliciting records on a music forum. But hey get that hustle.

I have records I don't want. I bought them. I sell them. We all love music. Some of us have record players.

I've been here for 8 years. What is sleazy about any of that?

Justthefacts is just mad that you're making money and he can't afford top shelf Mexican hair grease.

I knew that was the reason. Just knew it.

It's all in good fun, sleaze. Honestly though, I feel like you do some pretty kinky stuff to your records and that's why I was apprehensive to buy Jane Live.

Mexican hair grease is never top shelf. Just like the weed, it's not that great.

You'd know, beaner.

Well, I mean, I do sleep with them.

If you need vinyl sheets then maybe you should just wear a diaper.

If you think diapers can hold my loads you're truely mistaken.

I usually only need two, three tissues at most, so you're a freak.
