Well..........

Bill was sneering at me, so had to rectify the situation.

Really not the copies I wanted, but what can you do, except keep looking.

There were a lot of colored vinyl imports from Mexico and Israel, what's up with that?

I like the music first, find the best copies later approach.

I think the colored vinyl imports are an appeal to the youngsters out there.

First time posting here

(on this thread)..

Picked up Robert Plant's new one the other day. At first listen.. meh.. but after repeated listens (and different moods) it's really growing on me.

I like it!

A successful and fun day at the new-to-me used record store in Niles, CA "Needle to the Groove". In addition to cleaning all the records on a VPI (not in the $1 bin), they put them into PVC sleeves--a nice touch for a used record store (but makes them more difficult to photograph). So far very happy with the experience and my catch.

While in Portland over the weekend, I found two black label issues of Can't Buy a Thrill for $3 and $5. both in mint condition. The two labels are different. I believe the top picture with the building block letters is the earliest pressing. The dead wax indicates it is a first mother, first stamper pressing. I also have a yellow ABC label which is a later pressing.

Just this weekend I picked up a copy of Foo Fighters "Sonic Highways". Excellent music and the recording is pretty good. The vinyl is very quiet. If you are a fan, check this one out.

Led Zeppelin ‎– Led Zeppelin IV
Label: Atlantic ‎– R1-535340
Format: Reissue, Remastered, 180 Gram
Country: USA & Canada
Released: 27 Oct 2014

Picked this up today at my first visit to Trax On Wax in Baltimore, MD. It goes with the releases of I, II & III I recently bought. The LZ IV from 1987 I bought with I thru III just couldn't hold it's own so todays purchase takes it place.

I almost bought the 1987 release of Physical Graffiti cut by Sam Feldman at Atlantic Studios, but it was priced at $43. Since my '87 LZ IV was just ok sounding I saw no reason to spend so much on PG.
