The Vinyl Thread: Still Listen On Wax, Don't Use The CD

[Simple Torture]

I've never ordered from like Target or other such major retailer. Have y'all ever ordered through them? Had issues?

I don't think I've ever ordered from Target, WM, etc. Maybe Barnes and Noble back in the day.

Any packaging/shipment issues like with Amazon?

It's been so long I can't remember what I ordered, but I don't remember anything bad.

Come to think of it, I ordered something from Best Buy a few years ago, and it was a pretty flimsy packaging, though everything arrived undamaged. I would cross your fingers always if you're not ordering from a record store.

I tried the "mark as gift" trick with what I ordered with the gift card Amazon gave me. We'll see!

I did an order with Target once bc they had a good sale happening at the time, but I had it shipped to the store and picked them up there with no problems with physical condition. It’s a good option if you can bc you avoid the USPS, avoid porch pirates, and if anything is banged up you can return it instantly.

That's a good call.

[E.H. Ruddock]

Oooh placebo!

[bodysnatcher]

i tried listening to listen to that new placebo album. didn't do anything for me, but i was thoroughly impressed that dude's voice hasn't aged one bit in 25 years

Listening to listen to new music is the best way to listen to new music.

Whoa! Old friend of mine just posted that he did the master for the RSD reissue of a 70s Japanese blues/sludge band. Never heard of this before, but these songs are slaying me. Gonna try to grab this today.

Speed, Glue, and Shinski - “Eve”

I bought Bell Biv DeVoe's Poison and AIC's We Die Young, which they call an EP, but is actually just a 12 inch single.

Couldn't find Mike Watt's Stooges cover or Live at RSD.

[tragabigzanda]

I didn't see the Watt stuff at my shop either.

The only record I wanted was the Peppa Pig LP for my daughter, but they had sold out; and then they didn't have the Japanese record I had mentioned above. Luckily bodysnatcher scored me a Peppa.

I got The Replacements thing for Strat.

I did buy a couple non-RSD records today: John Prine's Sweet Revenge, and Patsy Cline's Showcase.

[B]

Yeah, there are 750 of the Watt 7" in the US.

14,000 of the AIC one. Those are gonna clog up bins forever.
