Title: So I went slightly out of my mind....and bought 35 albums in the last week
Post by: Lincoln on September 14, 2005, 05:30:22 PM
Just moved to this city that I lived near last year, with an awesome vinyl store a cab ride away. So to celebrate living in my first house, I decided to go nuts and buy music to accentuate it. Lots.

Here's the list:

Stevie Wonder - Uptight (Everythings Alright), Songs In The Key Of Life
Chet Atkins- Now and Then
The Clash - Sandinista
Bruce Springsteen - Nabraska
John Mayall - Ten Years Gone
Queen - Sheer Heart Attack
CCR - Green River
David Bowie - Another Face, unnamed LP with demo tracks
George Harrison - Somewhere In England
Paul McCartney - London Town, Choba B CCCP
Hall and Oates - Private Eyes
Johnny Winter - Nothin' But The Blues
Doobie Brothers - Stampede
The Beatles - Love Songs, 65, VI
Santana - Beyond Appearances, Inner Secrets
Heart - Magazine
Average White Band - self titled, Volume VIII
The Doors - Absolutely Live, Other Voices (Post Jim Morrison, surprisingly good)
The Rolling Stones - Love You Live, Some Girls
Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here, Dark Side Of The Moon
Johnny Copeland - Texas Twister
Sonny Boy Williamson - Live with The Yardbirds
Golden Earring - Moontan
The Police - Outlandos L'Amour

Yeah living by myself is cool. I got 3 other people in the house too.

My turntable is an Optimus Lab 1100 Fully Automatic. It's a really good one, only like a year old.

^^^^Are you serious? Man, you need to broaden your horizons a little bit. Groups like Pink Floyd, The Doors, Santana, The Police, etc...those are all groups who have released some classic material.

That's right. I love owning the original albums. Collecting albums has become a hobby of mine.

buying cd's is a waste of money i.m.o.

fair enough if u want a collection but i hate ppl saying thing like "i want the money to go to the artists"

as if $10 is gonna make a dent in their bank account

its waaay doper to own the original album. just because of the booklet. and its no fun to show other people your list of mp3s. btw LPs >CDs IMHO. ohh that nostalgia.

dope list man. only heared The Rolling Stones -  Some Girls, Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here, Dark Side Of The Moon, The Beatles - VI, Bruce Springsteen - Nebraska and The Police - Outlandos L'Amour though.

It's no CDs. I'm not too concerned with the artist. All the albums were bought in a used LP store, and a lot of the stuff I bought is very difficult to find in any form. If places like that aren't supported they'll close down. I guess you could say I'm a hero. :)

No, 10% is not gonna make the difference, BUT if 50 people buy the album, then it's already $500. 100 people buy it, it's $1,000...you see? If everybody starts thinking the way you do, in 10 years from now artists won't ge platinum with that reasoning.

i thought someone might say that, "every little bit counts" and so on.

but im talking about me personally, my 10er doesn't make a difference to them.

and yeah cool i respect that if you want to buy them for that reason, more power to ya. ;)
