I'll sell you my collector's edition copy of it. It isn't in near mint, though (and I won't be able to ship until after August 9th or so). It hasn't been played that much, so the vinyl and the interior is fine, but there are some marks on the front cover that somehow got there through mysterious causes that are unknown to me.

Thanks for the offer, but I actually just bought it today! Got it at a good price and I can't wait to play it. I think I've bought more than enough records to last me for a long time now.

I know that feeling. It never lasts as long as you think it will.

It definitely doesn't, I've now started getting a penchant for cheap and ubiquitous vinyl which you can find on discogs going for 70p or something.

It reminded me of this article:

I've gotten to the point where I don't care at all about a vinyl record unless it's an out-of-print limited edition signed white label test pressing with original art and handmade jacket, and a personal handwritten letter direct from the artist. Or at least something that isn't easy to come by and empties my wallet with a single blow.

Bought the Eraserhead soundtrack in Chicago. First pressing, no baby picture pull out, but that's okay, it sounds great!

Pay day.. all first press, now I am completely broke. Baked Beans for 4 weeks.. totally worth it.













This one I really shouldn't of, but it's meant to be THE best Beatles repress ever. Infinitely better than the Stereo version which came out a few years back. These are pure analogue presses from the master tapes, and the quality, attention to detail and faithfulness to the original presses are meant to be second to none. So much easier than scouting out for decent originals..

Oneohtrix Point Never - R Plus Seven

Picked it up on vinyl for my 21st birthday.

Nice one. I have it on both CD and vinyl! Are you new to OPN or have you already enjoyed his other releases?

I'm new to him, though I've listened to most of his major releases thoroughly.

I got this one because as much as I usually like to be chronological, r plus is the one that really poured lemon juice directly onto my brain.

His releases have been gradually getting very slightly worse since Returnal, but that's just because you can't beat Returnal. He's still great and I'm hyped for his new album coming soon.

Idk, I think r plus is difficult to compare to his other work, and it seems to be a polarising one. I think it has less filler, and it is a big change for him which is exciting.

Boring Angel, Cryo, and Chrome Country feel like filler to me. I'm also not a fan of the vocal synthesis and the sampling style that were used in R Plus Seven.

I'd agree only on cryo. Wouldn't be as good without the other two.

I get why you don't like the sampling and vocals. Most people seem really put off by them. But I love how cheesy they are. I like how he said that the vocals are "trying to be something they're not."

1976 pressing. Only 7 quid!

Is it pressed on straw? For that pastoral feel

Unfortunately not, though it does feature a rather lovely label on the record itself...

Oh that's very nice.

Nitpicky time: It's missing an apostrophe haha

That one always reminds me of Current 93's version of the cover.

I like it a lot, it's very good "synthetic" music made with love.
