    Just recently I came across a sealed Michael Jackson record with a glove in it. On Ebay it's going for 200 bucks! I doubt I'll get even close to that for it.


    What record is it vkimo? Thriller?

    And my family has enough records, 45s, 78s, and a shitload of 33s. I've got enough records to choke a horse with.

      I just started collecting 7" punk and ska records. It's a small collection but every time I buy a shirt from Interpunk I throw in 1 or 2 records.

          I've got alot of Punk and ska albulms, I also have alot of old stuff like old classic rock and jazz and junk (cause it's easy to find that stuff at flea markets, yard sales and what-not). I don't really know which I prefer though because I have way more cd's (and now digital downloads) but it's nice to put on a record from time to time

            I used to have a lot. But now, 20 some odd years later, I can only find the soundtrack for Aliens.

              So today was the bi-annual "Collectors Thingamadig" (don't know how to translate that)in Utrecht. A baseballstadium full of collectibles (many of which Retrojunk worthy, like a Sega MegaCD for 50 euros) and a section entirely dedicated to vinyl. Needless to say I went on a massive spending spree so now I can add some more records to my collection.

              The spoils:

              Dire Straits - Brothers in Arms
              Red Hot Chili Peppers - By The Way
              Incubus - Morning View
              The Who - Who's Next?
              Pink Floyd - The Wall live in Berlin
              Coldplay - Viva La Vida
              Red Hot Chili Peppers - Desecration Smile single
              Rolling Stones - Sticky Fingers

              It was a good day:D

                What record label is on your copy of Who's Next? If it says Decca on the center of the record and has a bunch of lines that look like they were filled in with colored pencil it's an original 1971 U.S. copy. If the label is black with a rainbow on it or has a sky and rainbow design it's a later MCA reissue. Black ones are from the mid 70's, sky ones are from the 80's.

                  Actually the record label printed on it is called Polydor (the logo is a red square with kind of a black rainbow in it)which, after some researching, is a German record label now part of Universal. Could it be a fake copy or something? It doesn't look like it but it could be possible. I'll post pictures of it if anyone wants to see it.

                  Regardles of whether it's a fake or not, I love this album!

                    Polydor would be an authentic German release, they put out the Who's stuff in Germany and in the UK after the label the Who were on in the 60's and early 70's called Track records folded, nice find.

                    I've got a German pressing of a John Entwistle solo album, a German pressing of Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here and an original German copy of Tanz Der Lemminge by German Prog-psych group Amon Duul II.

                      My wife and I have a decent collection going, mostly 80's stuff like Nina, the B-52's, Talking Heads, David Bowie, Prince, etc.

                        Love the B-52's! Cosmic Thing is one of my favourites. Do you have that one?

                        The "Collector's Thingamading" was an absolute succes though, and I'm definitely going again next November. Anyone living in the vicinity of Utrecht should check it out. There are a lot of nifty things (not just vinyl) to find there.

                        And yeah I figured out who the publisher was for that Who record around the time you posted it. Genuine stuff, and for only 5 euros! Gotta love it.

                          I'd have to check the titles again to be sure. We have old B-52's...prior to Love Shack. I listen to Rock Lobster quite often. That song is pure fuck.

                            I am only 14, but collect mostly 45s. I have about 700 of them. My parents and I together also own about 300 LPs.

                              The old B-52's stuff is good. Check out Planet Claire if you get the chance. That song is the bull's nuts.

                                Since I last posted, I have procured the following albums:

                                -Kiss--Rock and Roll Over


                                -Kiss--Dynasty


                                I still have yet to find a halfway decent turntable, but I found one at Target that I might save up for and buy someday soon...

                                  My recent buys have been an original Canadian pressing of The Velvet Underground and Nico with alternate cover art, A Young Person's Guide to King Crimson (2 lp best of with some rare tracks) and Thin Lizzy - Bad Reputation.

                                  I've found a few sites that are offering relativley reasonably priced copies of the Zappa album I've been looking for the last few years, Weasels Ripped My Flesh. I plan on getting in on one of the offers.

                                    I buy most of my music on vinyl these days, it's my favorite thing to spend money on. I only have about 40 so far.
