me know.

Big haul this weekend. Visited a store that was going out of business in downtown Albuquerque.

Motorhead - What's Words Worth?
Steppenwold - 7

Britny Fox - s/t (sealed)
Asia - s/t
Killer Dwarfs - s/t
Yes - 9021Live-The Solos
Genesis - Duke
Autograph - Loud and Clear

Most of these albums cost me $2 or less. A couple of them were less than $1.The Megadeth was the most expensive with a $15 price tag, but the entire thing thing was 50% off, so I ended up paying $7.50. The Motorhead was priced at $10, so it was $5.

Also picked up for Trog:
Barren Cross - Rock for the King (original Star Song w/ pic sleeve) $2
Uriah Heep - Live (w/ tour book) $4

For my son:
The Beatles - Let It Be
Missing Persons - Color in Your Life

in the mail:
Judas Priest - Sad Wings of Destiny
Judas Priest - Turbo
Rainbow - On Stage
Ted Nugent - Wango Tango (7" single)

Yup. Some pretty good bargains there. I was surprised to find the Uriah Heep with the booklet in such good shape for so cheap. The Britny Fox was $2 and was still sealed. With the discount it cost me $1.

Not really a big Autograph fan, but I had to purchase 10 or more records to get the 50% off discount, so I snagged it out of the dollar bins. It's in great shape, so I figured I could always trade it or resell it if I don't like it.

"Duke" is one of my favorite Genesis albums. Always loved the silly cover art. It's one of those white covers that are usually tattered and torn, but this $1 copy isn't in bad shape at all. A few stains but I've seen far worse for much more.

the bummer is that alot of used vinyl shops are going under

I can go to The Bay area and find alot of goodies for deals but the traffic usually ruins the trip of the trip.

While I was in germany I found
Black Sabbath-S/T limited edition re-issure or sumthin like that
Megadeth-Peace Sells really good condition figurin its original
Misfits-Die Die, My darling and same with the misfits one is in excellent condition

I was pretty happy to find these I'll tel ya

i ordered blackwater park, deliverace and damnation vinyl reissues when really i should save the 120 bucks

Oh my! What a weekend. Added a bunch of GEMS! A few I never thought I'd see in my collection...
Ted Nugent & the Amboy Dukes - Call of the Wild (promo/sealed)
Ted Nugent & the Amboy Dukes - Tooth Fang & Claw (promo)
the top two were owned by Howard Kaylan of the Turtles. They came with a letter of authenticity signed by Howard that the albums were original promos owned by him. The letter is probably worth as much as the albums.

Ted Nugent - State of Shock (picture disc)
Ted Nugent - Double Live Gonzo (still sealed)
Ted Nugent - You Love Bands when They Play it Hard (bootleg LP)
KISS - Egos at the Stake (vinyl bootleg/signed by Gene, Paul and Eric Carr!)

Giuffria - s/t
Black Sabbath - s/t (green label)
Riot - The Privilege of Power
Riot - Fire Down Under (signed by the entire band)
Gary Moore - We Want Moore
Kiss - Alive (autographed)

Had a few of my LPs autographed this weekend as well:
Ted Nugent - Weekend Warriors
Ted Nugent - State of Shock
Ted Nugent - Scream Dream
Damn Yankees - s/t
Ted Nugent & the Amboy Dukes - Survival of the Fittest

and a couple CDs:
Ted Nugent - Love Grenade (signed by the whole band)
Dokken - Tooth & Nail (signed by Mick Brown)

Never thought I'd own one of these again in my life. Original pressing on Leathur Records, still sealed.

Don't know. Haven't even played it yet. Looked it up on-line and it seems to be highly sought after by bootleg collectors. I guess it has a couple songs that the band would not perform live again.

some vinyls from my collections

Nice LIVING DEATH collection!

thx

Armored Saint - March Of The Saint
Armored Saint - Delirious Nomad
Armored Saint - Over The Edge single
RIOT - Narita
RIOT - RIOT Live E.P.

Now that vinyl is having a nice little resurgence I noticed that many new releases are coming out in 2-LP set editions. The new Motorhead is available that way and for the really brave...so is Death Magnetic.

I've been back on a vinyl kick recently myself, so far mostly filling up the holes in my classic rock collection. I haven't found much used metal vinyl around here yet.

It's a 7" in a paper picture sleeve. Heavy paper, but not cardboard.

thanks...

I drove past dozens of yard sales today, never stopping at any.
Then it happened... Just as I passed one in particular... I spy some dude pulling a record out of a huge cardboard box beneath an oak tree. At first, my brain is still focused on point B and I keep going. Then at the stop sign, the motor begins running upstairs, the proverbial "what if" kicks in, and before I knew it the wife is asking "what's wrong ?...why ya turning around ?" Pulling in front of the house, she elbows me "I knew it" and I just smiled big and bolted over to the box under the tree. The guy who was looking in it as I drive by said there wasn't anything good in there, go figure cause I walked off with 4 groovy scores. "Street Lethal" "Second Heat" and "Live Extreme Volume 1" by Racer X and M.A.R.S Project Driver

SHRED

oh yeah (edit) I spent a whole 2 dollars in quarters
