How much did they all cost you, roughly?

Not much actually, like 220 or something like that.

Most hip-hop is now keyboard driven, because the majority of hip-hop workstations have loops and patches that enable somebody with marginal skills to put tracks together,...

Unfortunately, most hip-hop artists gravitated towards the path of least resistance by relying on these pre-set patches. As a result, electric guitar and real musicians became devalued, and a lot of hip-hop now sounds the same.

^^^^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.

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. :)

bdjac, nice list too. "Rush of Blood" is great, "8 Million Stories" is a pretty underrated underground album

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. ;)
