Kewl Jon Oliva's Pain score

I got a couple of Outlaws vinyls yesterday. a studio and double live
plus I scored a Rainbow Rising-gatefold

still waiting for my sgt pepper mono to arrive. shud be sweet

So I though I had my Overkill vinyl collection complete until I found this coloured edition of "Hello from the Gutter" and then Nuclear Blast decided that 2 versions of Ironbound wasn't enough so they released a 3rd version "a Clear Vinyl".

Ugh! I'd be happy with any ONE edition of Ironbound on vinyl.

arggh i bought a mono sgt pepper. the sleever said mono but the record was stereo. i already have a stereo vinyl copy

word my brother

I seem to be more than happy with just plain ol' black vinyl.

black vinyl is stronger and more durable anyway because of the graphite they add to the pvc to make it black

What is on the B side of the 12' Savatage ? thanks

Nice! That Overkill 7" is incredible.

It sure is, and it's yours

Sweet!

I've started buying vinyl again when the situation merits it (the recording was originally analog, etc). The quality of new vinyl seems to vary widely depending on the record label though.

For instance, I have a couple records from Tee Pee and they are usually crackly from the very first spin...which irritates the crap out of me.

On the other hand...Southern Lord puts out awesome vinyl, every one I've bought so far has just blown me away sonically. Plus they have a habit of adding "vinyl only" bonus tracks to their albums and sometimes even including bonus LP singles in the packaging.

LP's make this old bastard a happy bastard.

Received this odd red-vinyl Flotsam & Jetsam promo record in the mail today. It's a 7" promo single for Cuatro and has Swatting At Flies b/w Date With Hate.

My wife and I had talked bout starting to collect Vinyl as weve seen alot of David Bowie stuff on Vinyl that they never converted or put out as a CD

Do it!

German pressing with backwards 'zz' logo. Due to the similarity of the lightning bolt "ss" in the Kiss logo to the Nazi "SS", the logo was changed. To avoid controversy, after 1979 most of the band's album covers and merchandise in Germany had modified versions of the logo, in which the "SS" looks like a backwards "ZZ."



I've never seen this pressing before. The album has the normal cover on it, but it is wrapped by this paper "make-up" cover. It's also on the old Casablanca label, rather than the Mercury label.


Australian pressing for $7! Great deal!


Just an odd best of compilation. Black Sabbath - The Ultimate in Heavy Metal! Someone needs to let them know that they are "just hard rock".


In the ultimate in cheesy fanboy geekiness, I know own three different versions of this record, including the copy I had signed in '07, a Japanese pressing, and this radio promo pressing.


One of many repackagings of the early Judas Priest records by Gull Records. I've always liked this 2 record set. The cover is cool and the inner gatefold has a cool rendering of the band members. The Rocka Rolla tracks were all completely remixed for this album as well.

ULT where do have room for all the vinyl you own? That is one of the reasons I give away my records when I replace it with a CD, not enough room.
